For Enphase Ensemble systems with the Enpower/IQ System Controller and Encharge/IQ Batteries installed, additional features are available:
- Sensors for battery status and usage
- Sensors for grid status (*)
- Sensors for the state of the Enpower's four load-shedding relays (*)
- A switch allowing you to take your system on-grid and off-grid. Note that the Enpower has a slight delay built-in between receiving these commands and actually switching the system on or off grid. (*)
- A switch allowing you to enable or disable charging the Encharge/IQ batteries from the power grid. (*)
- Support for changing the battery storage mode between full backup, self-consumption, and savings mode and setting the reserve battery level for outages.

**: When used with Enpower/IQ System Controller, the entities to charge from the grid, battery storage mode, and reserve battery level are connected to the Enpower device with the Enpower serial number in their entity and unique IDs. When no Enpower is installed, these are connected to the Envoy itself and the Envoy serial number is used in the IDs.
In multiphase installations with batteries, in countries with phase-balancing grid meters, the battery will export to the grid on one phase the amount it lacks on another phase which pulls the amount from the grid, as if it is using the grid as a 'transport' between phases. Since the grid meter will balance the amount imported and exported on the two phases, the net result is zero. The Envoy multiphase consumption CTs, however, will report the amounts on both phases, resulting in too high export on one and too high import on the other. One may consider using the `lifetime balanced net energy consumption` which is the sum of grid import and export to eliminate this effect. This would require some templating to split these values into import and export values. Alternatively, use the `current net power consumption` or `balanced net power consumption` with a Riemann integral sum helper.
