*1: The Li-lon battery usually contain two mainstream type: LFP and Ternary Lithium battery.
*2: When the input voltage is greater than 980V, the inverter will enter standby mode, and when the voltage returns to below 950V the inverter will return to normal operation.
*3: Please refer to the user manual for the MPPT Voltage Range at Nominal Power.
*4: For Brazil, the Max. Power is the same with the Nominal Power.
*5: For Brazil, for GW12K-ET-L-G10, GW15K-ET-L-G10 and GW20K-ET-L-G10, the Max. Current to Grid is 18.2A@220V, 22.7A@220V and 30.3A@220V respectively.
*6: For Brazil, for GW12K-ET-L-G10, GW15K-ET-L-G10 and GW20K-ET-L-G10, the Battery Reverse Polarity Protection is integrated.
*7: AFCI is integrated in Brazil.
*8: GW5K-ET-L-G10 is expected to be available around October.
