Enphase Communication Kit 2 INT - COMMS- KIT- INT-02
The Communications Kit 2 INT (COMMS-KIT-02-INT), also known as CK2, enables the IQ Gateway Metered to communicate with the IQ Battery 5P via wired control communication. It is required on any site to operate the IQ Battery 5P in grid-tied mode.

Matthew Lutz, our Enphase Product Specialist, explains in this short video how the CK2 works and what your installation options are.
CK2 Pre built in AC Boards
We are also offering AC Boards with the CK2 built-in for both new and existing installations to save time on-site, avoid wiring issues, and speed up commissioning:
- For new Enphase systems: AC Board - Enphase CK2 single phase (2 x solar and 2 x battery circuits)
- For retrofitted systems: AC Board - Enphase CK2 retrofit single phase (2 x battery circuits)
Win more Enphase projects and sell more IQ Batteries
The main benefit of the CK2 is that it can reduce the system costs significantly by removing the need for an IQ System Controller in grid-tied mode where backup is not required by the homeowner. This enables you to install more IQ Batteries for more customers (new or existing) using their systems for daytime charging and nighttime discharging, helping you secure more Enphase projects.
