Hoymiles Connection cable BC05 to Schuko (10 m) - For HMS series
Description
Product information
The 10 metre Hoymiles BC05 to Schuko connection cable is the customised solution for the simple commissioning of modern Hoymiles HMS microinverters. While older series used the Betteri connector, the new HMS generation (e.g. HMS-800W-2T) uses the special "Field Connector" (BC05).
This cable connects this special connector directly to your household socket. It eliminates the complicated assembly of AC trunk cables for single installations. The high-quality, 10-metre-long rubber hose cable (H07RN-F) is extremely resistant to weather influences and UV radiation, ensuring safe continuous operation of your balcony power plant outdoors.
Highlights at a glance
- Perfect fit: Specially assembled for Hoymiles microinverters of the HMS series (e.g. HMS-600, HMS-800, HMS-1000) with the typical BC05 connector.
- Simple installation: Connects the inverter directly and without additional adapters to a standard outdoor Schuko socket ("Plug & Play").
- Long range: With 10 metres of length you can easily bridge distances from the balcony, garden fence or flat roof to the next outdoor socket.
- High-quality rubber cable: The heavy-duty rubber hose cable of type H07RN-F 3G1.5 mm² is extremely robust, oil-resistant and suitable for long-term outdoor use.
- High protection class: The BC05 plug on the inverter side is waterproof (IP68), while the Schuko plug is designed for sheltered outdoor areas (IP44).
- Standard-compliant manufacture: Professionally machine-pressed contacts ensure minimal contact resistance and maximum safety when feeding power.
Areas of application
This cable is essential for owners of the current Hoymiles generation:
- Balcony power plants (HMS): For direct connection of an HMS-800-2T to the balcony socket.
- Garden installation: When the inverter is mounted on the module in the garden and the path to the patio socket needs to be bridged.
- Retrofit: Replacement of defective or too short original cables in existing HMS systems.
Mounting & safety instructions
- Check connection: The BC05 plug must audibly latch onto the inverter to ensure watertightness.
- Risk of confusion: This cable does not fit the older Hoymiles HM series (these use the Betteri BC01 connector). Please check your inverter connector before purchase.
- Cable routing: When laying, ensure the cable is not pulled over sharp edges or crushed (e.g. through windows without lead-through).
- Schuko weather protection: While the BC05 plug is fully weatherproof, the Schuko plug should be inserted into a splash-proof outdoor socket that is ideally covered.

FAQs about the Hoymiles BC05 cable
Does this cable fit my Hoymiles HM-600 or HM-800?
No, definitely not. The HM series uses the "Betteri BC01" connector (identifiable by the wave-shaped housing). The HMS series offered here uses the "BC05" connector (smoother, more rectangular design). The connectors are not mechanically compatible.
Can I shorten the cable if 10 metres is too long?
Technically, this is possible, but you will lose the warranty and the tested safety of the assembled Schuko side. It is often better to safely stow the excess length in a neat loop (not too tightly wound because of induction).
Is the cable suitable for 800 watt feed-in?
Yes, absolutely. The cable has a cross-section of 1.5 mm² and is designed for currents of up to 16 amps (approx. 3680 watts). The continuous supply of 800 watts (approx. 3.5 amps) presents no thermal problem for this high-quality cable.Reviews 0
