4.1 Location The Sunways STT 4-25kW series inverters designed with IP65 protection enclosure for indoor and outdoor installations. When selecting an inverter installation location, the following factors should be considered: The wall on which the inverters mounted must be able to withstand the weight of the inverter. The inverter needs to be installed in a well-ventilated environment. Do not expose the inverter directly to strong sunlight to prevent excessive temperature operation. The inverter should be installed in a place with shelter to prevent direct exposure to sunlight and rain. Install the inverter at eye level for easy inspection of screen data and further maintenance. The ambient temperature of the inverter installation location should be between -30 and 60 . The surface temperature of the inverter may reach up to 75 . To avoid risk of burns, do not touch the inverter while it’s operating and inverter must be installed out of reaching of children.

4.3 External ground connection

4 Installation

Danger Attention

Do not connect the N-wire as a protective ground wire to the inverter casing. Otherwise, it may cause electric shock.
Good grounding is good for resisting surge voltage shock and improving EMI performance. Inverters must be well-grounded. For a system with only one inverter, the PE cable needs to be grounded. For a multi-inverter system, all inverters PE wires need to be connected to the same grounding copper bar to ensure equipotential bonding.

Ground terminal connection steps: The external grounding terminal is located in the lower right side of the inverter. Fix the grounding terminal to the PE wire with a proper tool and lock the grounding terminal to the grounding hole in the lower right side of the inverter, as shown in Figure 4-9. The cross- sectional area of the external grounding cable is 4mm2.

4.4 Electrical Connection

Danger

A high voltage in the conductive part of the inverter may cause an electric shock. When installing the inverter, make sure that the AC and DC sides of the inverter are completely de-energized.

Warning

Do not ground the positive or negative pole of the PV string, otherwise it will cause serious damage to the inverter.

Warning Attention

Static may cause damage to the electronic components of the inverter. Anti- static measures should be taken during installation and maintenance.
Do not use other brands or other types of terminals other than the terminals in the accessory package. Sunways has the right to refuse all damages caused by the mixeduse of terminals.

Attention

Moisture and dust can damage the inverter, ensure the cable gland is securely tightened during installation. The warranty claim will be invalidated if the inverter is damaged as a result of a poorly connected cable connector.

4.4.1 Inverter PV string connection
1. The following must be considered when making electrical connections to the inverter: Disconnect the AC breaker switch on the grid side. The DC switch of the inverter must be turned to the “OFF” position. For best practice, ensure PV modules of the same model and specifications are connected in each string. Make sure the maximum output voltage of each PV string does not exceed 600V.

4.4.2 Connection of AC output
Before connecting to the power grid, make sure that the power grid voltage and frequency meet the requirements of the inverter. See technical parameters for details. All Sunways inverters incorporate internal RCD (Residual Current Device) to protect against possible electrocution in case of a malfunction of the PV array, cables or inverter (DC). The RCD in the Sunways inverter can detect leakage on the DC side. An external RCD is required in some countries. The installer must check which type of RCD is required by the specific local electric codes. Installation of an RCD must always be conducted in accordance with local codes and standards. Sunways recommends the use of a type-A RCD, with a tripping current of 300mA or higher. The recommended cable and AC switch for the Sunways STT 4-25kW series three phase inverter are shown in the following table:

7.1 Error Message Sunways STT 4-25kW series three phase inverter is designed in accordance with grid operation standards, and conform to the requirements of safety and EMC. The inverter had passed a series of rigorous tests to ensure it runs sustainably and reliably before shipment. When a fault occurs, the corresponding error message will be shown on the OLED display, and in this case, the inverter might stop feeding into grid. The fault messages and their corresponding troubleshooting methods are listed below:

Error Message

Description

Troubleshooting

No Display

No Display

Check whether cables are all firmly connected and DC switch is on. Check whether the input voltage meets the working voltage.

Mains Lost

Grid power outage, AC switch or circuit is disconnected.

Check whether the mains supply is lost. Check whether the AC breaker and terminals are well connected.

Grid Voltage Fault

Grid overvoltage or undervoltage, the grid voltage is higher or lower than the set protection value.

Check whether the safety regulation setting is correct. Check the voltage of the grid. If the grid voltage exceeds the allowed range of inverter protection parameters, please contact the local grid company to resolve. Check whether the impendence of the AC cable is too high. Replace with a thicker AC cable if that is the case.

Troubleshooting

Grid Frequency Fault

Grid over frequency or underfrequency, the grid frequency is higher or lower than the set protection value.

Check whether the safety regulation settings are correct. Check the frequency of the grid. If the grid frequency exceeds the allowed range of inverter protection parameters, please contact the local grid company to resolve.

ISO Over Limitation

Low system insulation resistance, which is generally caused by poor insulation to ground of the module/cable or by rainy and damp environment.

Check whether the PV panels, cables, and connectors are broken or water leaked. Check whether there is a reliable inverter grounding line.

GFCI Fault

Excessive leakage current.

The ground current is too high. Check whether the PV cable has a short circuit to ground.

PV Over Voltage

PV over voltage is too high.

Input voltage is too high. Reduce the number of PV panels to make sure the open-circuit voltage of each string is lower than the inverter max allowed input voltage.

Inverter Over Temperature

Temperature anomaly, the temperature of the interior of the inverter is excessively high and out of the safe range.

Check whether the inverter is directly exposed to the sunlight. Reduce ambient temperature.

DCI Fault

DC Injection Hight. Inverter detects a higher DC component in AC output.

Restart the inverter, wait a moment for inverter recovery. If the fault occurs repeatedly, please contact Sunways.

7.2 PV System for Ground Faults If ground fault occurs, the inverter will beep, the red LED will light up and the Error Message “GFCI Fault” will be displayed in the Results menu on the inverter user interface. At the same time, the Sunways monitoring system will also issue an alarm.

7.3 Maintenance

Danger

Risk of inverter damage or personal injury due to incorrect service! Always keep in mind that the inverter is powered by dual sources: PV strings and utility grid. Before any service work, observe the following procedure. Disconnect the AC circuit breaker and then set the DC load-break switch of the inverter to OFF; Wait at least 5 minutes for inner capacitors to discharge completely; Verify that there is no voltage or current before pulling any connector.

Caution Attention

Keep non-qualified persons away! A temporary warning sign or barrier must be posted to keep non-qualified persons away while performing electrical connection and service work.
Restart the inverter only after removing the fault that impairs safety performance. Never arbitrarily replace any internal components. For any maintenance support, please contact Sunways. Otherwise, Sunways shall not be held liable for any damage caused.

Note

Servicing of the device in accordance with the manual should never be undertaken in the absence of proper tools, test equipment or the latest revision of the manual which has been clearly and thoroughly understood.
