To avoid risk of electric shock during maintenance or installation, make sure that all DC and AC connection terminals are disconnected. First connect the grounding wire to grounding and disconnect it for maintenance. Check proper phase and neutral connection. If the unit is used without following the specifications of the manufacture, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired. Disconnect the inverter from the grid and fram the photovalraic generator hefare cleaning photovoltaic strings. An unexpected capacitive current from the surface of the strings may surprise operator and cause them to fall from the roof. |
![]() | Hanging the PV inverter The PVinverter must only be handled by qualified service personnel. When the photovoltaic generator is exposed to sufficient light intensity, it generates a DC voltage and, when connected to the device, it charges the bulk capacitor. After having discannected the PV inverter from the grid and the PV generator, an electric charge may remain in the bulk capacitor. Please wait at least 10 minutes after disconnecting from the grid before handing, |
![]() | Exclusively for the grid The PV inverter is designed for the sole purpase of converting from PV strings and injecting it into the grid. This inverter is not designed to be powered by saurces of primary energy other than PV strings or to be connected to different loads other than the public grid. |
![]() | Hot surfaces Although it has been designsd in accordance with international safsty standards, the PV inverter may become hut during operation. |
