Betteri on Schuko connection cable (10 m) - BETTTERI10M incl. AK5S-2 plug (IP65)

The 10 metre Betteri BC01 to earthing contact (Schuko) connection cable is the perfect "plug & play" solution for your balcony power station. It connects common microinverters safely and according to standards directly to your domestic socket to feed the generated solar power directly into your power grid.

Equipped with an extremely robust, UV- and weather-resistant rubber hose cable (usually H07RN-F 3x1.5 mm²), this 10-metre cable effortlessly bridges the distance from the solar panel on the balcony, flat roof or terrace to the nearest outdoor socket. The splash-proof Betteri connection ensures a safe connection to the inverter.

Highlights at a glance

• Simple plug & play: Ready-made cable for immediate connection of your mini PV system to a normal socket, without elaborate electrical installation.
• High compatibility: Precisely fitting for microinverters with Betteri BC01 connection (e.g. Hoymiles HM series, Deye, NEP, Envertech, Bosswerk).
• Long range (10 metres): Offers enormous flexibility in the choice of location for your inverter, without the need for extension cables outdoors.
• Robust industrial quality: The heavy rubber hose cable is extremely mechanically resilient, oil-resistant and UV-resistant for permanent outdoor use.
• Safe protection rating (IP65/IP44): The Betteri plug on the inverter is water and dustproof (IP65/IP67/AK5S-2), the Schuko plug is splashproof (IP44).

Fields of application

This feed-in cable is the standard for private photovoltaic projects:

• Balcony power stations: For direct connection of the 600W / 800W system to the socket on the balcony.
• Garden & patio installations: To safely direct the power from the inverter over the lawn or terrace to the house wall.
• Garage & flat roof systems: For bridging the distance from the roof to the next junction box or socket.

Installation & Safety instructions

• Cable routing: Lay the 10-metre cable so that it does not cause a tripping hazard. Avoid sharp kinks or pinching in windows unless using a special window feed-through.
• Moisture on the Schuko plug: While the Betteri plug (IP65) on the inverter may hang unprotected in the rain, the Schuko socket (IP44) on the wall should at least be under cover or in a splash-proof housing. Do not plug Schuko connections into puddles!
• Betteri end cap: If your microinverter has a further, unused Betteri connection for series connection ("daisy chain"), this must be closed with a watertight Betteri end cap.
• Multiple sockets: Never connect a balcony power station using a multiple socket outlet or cable reel, but always directly to a permanently installed wall socket.

FAQs about the Betteri 10m cable

Is this cable suitable for the Hoymiles HMS series?

No. The newer HMS series (e.g. HMS-800) from Hoymiles uses a completely different, proprietary connector (Hoymiles BC05 "Field Connector" or trunk cable). The Betteri BC01 cable fits only for the HM series (e.g. HM-600, HM-800) as well as for Deye, NEP and many others.

Can I leave the 10m cable permanently outdoors in the sun?

Yes. The cable is made from H07RN-F material. The "R" and "N" stand for natural rubber and polychloroprene. This rubber compound is specially approved for continuous use outdoors, under UV radiation, rain and cold.

Is feeding in via the Schuko plug permitted in Germany?
