Hoymiles Connection cable BC05 to Schuko (3 m) - For HMS series

The 3 metre Hoymiles BC05 to Schuko connection cable is the ideal "plug & play" solution for safely and quickly connecting micro inverters of the modern Hoymiles HMS series to the home network. With a length of 3 metres, it offers a little more leeway than the extremely short 2-metre version, without having to store unnecessarily long cable on the balcony as would be the case with 5 or 10 metres.

It connects the special "Field Connector" (BC05) of the inverter directly to a Schuko (Type F) socket. The high-quality, heavy rubber hose cable (H07RN-F 3G1.5) ensures maximum safety and longevity in continuous outdoor use.

Highlights at a glance

• Perfect fit: Specially assembled for Hoymiles micro inverters of the HMS series (e.g. HMS-800W-2T, HMS-1000, HMS-1600) with the typical BC05 connector.
• Optimal intermediate length (3 metres): Provides the necessary slack for a tidy installation on balcony railings or through the wall, without excess cable clutter.
• Easy installation: Connects the inverter directly and without additional adapters or tinkering to a standard outdoor socket.
• High-quality rubber cable: The cable type H07RN-F 3G1.5 mm² is extremely resistant to UV rays, moisture, cold, and mechanical abrasion.
• High protection rating: The BC05 plug on the inverter side is waterproof (IP68), the Schuko plug is splashproof (IP44).
• Safe performance: Designed for 230 V and 16 A, the cable effortlessly transmits the output of standard balcony power plants (600W / 800W / 2000W).

Areas of application

The 3-metre length is the problem solver for typical installation situations:

• Balcony power plants: When the socket is not located directly next to the inverter, but 1-2 metres away on the house wall.
• Wall penetrations: To bridge the distance from the external module through the masonry to the nearest indoor socket.
• Terrace & carport: For connection to moisture-proof sockets that are mounted somewhat higher or offset.

Assembly & safety instructions

• Correct fit: Press the BC05 plug firmly onto the connection on the inverter until it audibly clicks into place. This guarantees the tightness (IP68).
• Disassembly: To disconnect the connection, you will need the Hoymiles unlocking tool ("Disconnect Tool"). Do not attempt to use a screwdriver as this may damage the plug.
• No Betteri connection: Do not confuse this cable with the "Betteri BC01" cable for the old HM series. The plugs are mechanically incompatible.
• Routing: Make sure that the cable is not pinched (e.g. in windows without a feed-through) and protect the Schuko plug from direct heavy rain.

FAQs about the Hoymiles BC05 cable (3m)

Will this cable fit my Deye or Bosswerk inverter?

No. Inverters from Deye, Bosswerk, or the older Hoymiles HM series use the "Betteri BC01" standard. The HMS series offered here uses the proprietary Hoymiles "BC05" standard. The plugs are not compatible.

Is the cable UV-resistant?

Yes. The jacket of the cable is made from a special rubber compound (H07RN-F), certified for permanent use under direct sunlight and weather conditions. It will not become brittle.

Can I use the cable for a 2000 watt inverter (HMS-2000)?
