Product overview
Schneider Conext XW+ 8548 E 6.8kW 230V hybrid inverter/charger in Kenya for grid-tie or off-grid systems, with 48V battery charging up to 140A.
Schneider Electric’s Conext XW+ is an adaptable single-phase and three-phase inverter/charger system with grid-tie functionality and dual AC power inputs. Available solar charge controllers, monitoring, and automated generator control modules enable further adaptability. From a single Conext XW+ unit to clusters up to 102 kW, the Conext XW+ is a scalable system that allows for the integration of solar capacity as required. Adaptable and scalable, the Schneider Electric. Conext XW+ system is the one solution for grid-interactive and off-grid, residential and commercial, solar and backup power applications.

Specifications from the manufacturer. Confirm critical ratings against the datasheet before design sign-off.
Compatibility and installation
What to confirm before you buy
- Phase: single-phase supply or three-phase supply at your distribution board.
- Battery voltage and chemistry the inverter supports (for example 48V lithium) and whether the battery brand communicates with it.
- Peak and continuous load you need it to carry, including motor starting loads such as pumps.
- PV array size and string voltage against the inverter's MPPT range.
- Whether you will export to the grid, and your utility's requirements for that.
Grid-connected and battery equipment must be installed by a licensed solar technician to the Energy (Solar Photovoltaic Systems) Regulations. GeoSolar can quote supply only, or supply and installation by our own engineers.

Frequently asked questions
Will this inverter work with the batteries I already have?
It depends on battery voltage, chemistry and the communication protocol. Send us your battery make and model and an engineer will confirm compatibility before you order.
Can I add more solar panels or batteries later?
Usually, within the inverter's PV input and battery limits. Tell us your current system and planned additions and we will check the headroom.
Is the price VAT inclusive?
Yes. Marketplace prices are shown in Kenyan shillings and include 16% VAT where it applies. Your tax invoice shows the VAT amount.
How does delivery work?
Nairobi delivery is Ksh 1,500 and courier delivery to the rest of Kenya starts at Ksh 4,500; heavy items are quoted. Delivery is free on orders above Ksh 500,000, and you can collect your order instead.
Can GeoSolar install this for me?
Yes. Request a quotation and choose supply and installation. An engineer confirms the design and compatibility with your site before work starts.
Request a quotation
For project quantities, supply and installation, or when you want an engineer to confirm compatibility first.
Request business pricing
Contractors, developers and institutions buying regularly can apply for business pricing on their account. Resellers should join the partner programme.
