→ Receive two three‑phase Home Hub Universal Inverters free
Eligibility Notes (Three‑Phase)
- Applies to SEK‑AU or SEK‑AUB three‑phase residential inverters, or net‑metered single‑phase inverters installed on sites with three‑phase supply
- Battery modules must be installed with the relevant Backup Interface
- Replacement inverters must be single‑ or three‑phase Home Hub Universal Inverters
- See the How It Works section for full terms and conditions
Select your preferred replacement inverter from the form’s drop-down menu: choose either a 10kW or 5kW single-phase inverter, or a 10kW three-phase inverter or 2 x 10kW three-phase inverters.
Important Deadlines:
- November 20, 2026: Single phase TradeUp Program ends.
- November 20, 2026: Three-Phase TradeUp Program ends.

FAQs
How do I return my old inverter to the SolarEdge warehouse?
Please find the return instructions here
What if the SolarEdge system I’m upgrading isn’t on my monitoring portal account?
Please submit a site transfer request here: https://www.solaredge.com/aus/site-transfer-request
What are my options for TradeUp when a 5kW phase imbalance restriction exists?
You can now replace an old Residential 3-phase inverter with two new single-phase inverters as part of the TradeUp program. The upgrade will consist of a combination of the following inverters;
- 1x Home Hub SE5000H-MM inverter and;
- 1x Genesis SE3000H or SE5000H inverter.
In line with the current process, we will ship you two replacement inverters equivalent to what you installed on the property.
How do I tell the SolarEdge monitoring portal that I’ve replaced the inverter?
Please replace the inverter serial number on the monitoring portal, instructions at this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9SzDiwo6ys

How long does it take to receive my replacement inverter?
Approximately 4 weeks
How do I tell the difference an HD-Wave and a Genesis inverter?
An HD-Wave inverter will have the Part Number. SE*000H-AU000B*U4 whereas the Genesis will have the part number SE*000H-AUL00B*U4
Does the StorEdge single phase inverter qualify for the TradeUp program?
Yes
Do the old pre-HD-Wave SolarEdge single phase inverters qualify for the TradeUp program?
Yes
Do All Residential three-phase inverters qualify for the TradeUp program?
Yes
Can I connect a battery to a residential three phase SEK-AUB inverter
A. Yes, a single SolarEdge Home Battery may be connected to the following inverter models:
SE5K-AUBTEBEU4
SE7K-AUBTEBEU4
SE8.25K-AUBTEBEU4
SE10K-AUBTEBEU4
What are my options if I have one of these pre-2021 SEK-AU inverter models?
A. If you want backup, you may TradeUp your residential 3-phase SEK-AU inverter to a single-phase Home Hub hybrid inverter when you connect a Home Battery and Backup Interface.
If backup is not essential when connecting a battery, you may TradeUp your SEK-AU inverter to a new SEK-AUB model.
TradeUp is a free upgrade offered by SolarEdge that allows you to increase your inverter size if desired and your get a new 12Yr inverter warranty.
We recommend contacting your Installer to learn more and discuss your specific needs.
Does installing a single-phase Home Hub Universal Inverter on a three-phase property affect my self-consumption?
No
Net Metering on three-phase sites explained
SolarEdge utilises 3-phase net metering which allows single-phase inverters to operate on homes with a 3-phase grid supply and provides the same financial return.
Net metering aggregates the sum of energy flow across all 3 phases into a single measurement value. The electricity being used, regardless of which phase the solar system is connected to, is subtracted from the amount of solar energy generated to calculate the total import or export amount for home billing, battery charging or offsetting to other loads such as EV Charging or Water Heating. This means the financial benefits are equivalent for either type of grid supply.
For homes with a single-phase hybrid inverter, battery, and backup on a 3-phase grid supply, there may even be a benefit for selecting this option. Whilst in backup mode the single-phase hybrid inverter can typically supply its full power output on the phase that it is connected and is potentially more powerful than a 3-phase hybrid inverter could on that same phase, this allows for greater flexibility on which appliances can run in backup mode.
