| Certifications | The Australian CEC approved-inverter export dated 22 July 2026 lists exact IS-HYB-5000-3PH and IS-HYB-6000-3PH models to AS/NZS 4777.2:2020 through 9 May 2027., The exact datasheet lists IEC 62109-1/-2 and AS/NZS 4777.2:2020. | The Australian CEC approved-inverter export dated 22 July 2026 lists exact GW6000-ET-20, GW8000-ET-20, GW9900-ET-20, GW12K-ET-20 and GW15K-ET-20 models to AS/NZS 4777.2:2020 through 29 October 2027., The exact system manual lists IEC 62109-1/-2 and multiple national grid codes. |
| Warranty scope | Australia; iStore's March 2026 terms explicitly name IS-HYB-5000-3PH and IS-HYB-6000-3PH and provide a 120-month inverter warranty. Accepted-return freight is covered and any installer rebate remains discretionary. | Australia and New Zealand; GoodWe's current Rev 5.8 limited warranty explicitly places ET G2 under 10 years of cover for eligible products. |
| Warranty remedy | Repair, replacement or credit at iStore's option. | Configuration change, repair or replacement at GoodWe's discretion. |
| Labour and reinstallation | The fixed installer rebate is discretionary and is not full labour cover. Removal and reinstallation costs are not promised in full. | GoodWe may provide authorised on-site service or a conditional service rebate. On-site labour support is conditional and requires prior authorisation. |
| Freight | Return postage is covered after an accepted claim. | Normal ground transport is covered up to GoodWe's stated case limit. |
| Transfer and registration | No express subsequent-owner transfer right was found in the governing terms. Any promotional extension is subject to its published promotion and may be parts-only. | No express subsequent-owner transfer right was found in the governing terms. The standard ET G2 term is listed as 10 years; claim and monitoring conditions in the governing terms still apply. |
| Grid compatibility | Three-phase 230/400 V family with Australian Region A, B and C grid profiles documented and exact-model CEC listings. DNSP settings and export limits remain installation-specific. | Three-phase 380/400 V hybrid family with exact-model CEC listings. DNSP acceptance, export settings, battery pairing and backup design remain installation-specific. |

| Review note | In Australian purchasing comparisons this product is listed under iStore, the local brand and warranty counterparty. iStore documents a strategic manufacturing partnership with Huawei and continuity for installed Huawei systems. | The 15 kW GW15K-ET-20 is the scored series benchmark. CEC listings are dynamic and should be checked before installation. |

These checks sit beside the benchmark score. They are site, tariff and contract questions that no product score can settle.
Ask for every model number to appear on the quote and order. The Clean Energy Council product lists are live: STC creation requires listed products at installation, and network requirements may also depend on current approval.
Have the retailer state the supply phase, inverter connection limit, export limit and any export-control cost. The local network connection agreement, not a generic datasheet, determines those settings. See the Australian Government's connection guidance.
Ask which bills or interval data, tariff, feed-in rate, export limit and future loads support the savings and payback claim. Self-consumed electricity and tariff timing usually matter more than a headline feed-in rate. See the system sizing and battery savings guidance.
Confirm the proposed inverter phase, PV input design, battery pairing and export-control configuration against the final connection agreement. A suitable product can still require a different site design or control setting.
Keep the retailer, installer, manufacturer warranty and escalation path in the contract. Australian Consumer Law guarantees apply separately from any manufacturer warranty; where one business supplied both product and installation, it is generally responsible for the remedy. See the ACCC guidance.
A score lead is only meaningful inside this shared class or tier. Weigh it against the specification and evidence rows above before deciding.
Both products are scored in the Inverter class, on the same rubric weighting. Scores are not comparable across classes or tiers. Full methodology.
