HUAWEI SUN2000 Three Phase Inverter
Product Information
The HUAWEI SUN2000-(2KTL-6KTL)-L1 is a solar inverter designed for residential and commercial use. It converts the DC power generated by solar panels into AC power that can be used to power electrical devices. The inverter is equipped with various safety features to ensure reliable and efficient operation.
Product Usage Instructions
Overview
- Read the user manual to familiarize yourself with the product information and safety precautions.
Installing the Device
Installation Requirements
- Ensure that there is sufficient space, proper angle, and appropriate mounting hole dimensions for installation.
Installing the Solar Inverter
- Install the mounting bracket, making sure to avoid drilling holes in water pipes and cables buried in the wall.
- (Optional) Install the screw for locking the DC switch.
- Install the solar inverter onto the mounting bracket.
- (Optional) Install an anti-theft lock. Use a lock suitable for the lock hole diameter (10 mm) and ensure it is outdoor waterproof.
Connecting Cables
Preparing Cables
Each inverter must be equipped with an AC output switch. Multiple inverters
cannot connect to the same AC output switch. Prepare cables based on site
requirements.
Installing the PE Cable
Do not connect the neutral wire to the enclosure as a PE cable to avoid
electric shocks.
Installing a WLAN Antenna or Smart Dongle
Ensure that the WLAN antenna or Smart Dongle is securely installed. For the
Smart Dongle, use a Cat 5e outdoor shielded network cable (outer diameter < 9
mm; internal resistance 1.5 ohms/10 m) and shielded RJ45 connectors.

Install the mounting bracket.
Danger
Avoid drilling holes in the water pipes and cables buried in the wall.
Note- M6x60 expansion bolts are delivered with the solar inverter. If the length and number of the bolts do not meet installation requirements, prepare M6 stainless steel expansion bolts by yourself.
- The expansion bolts delivered with the solar inverter are mainly used for solid concrete walls. For other types of walls, prepare bolts by yourself and ensure that the wall meets the load bearing requirements of the solar inverter.
- In residential areas, do not install the solar inverter on drywalls or walls made of similar materials which have a weak sound insulation performance because the noise generated by the solar inverter is noticeable.
- Loosen the nut, flat washer, and spring washer of the expansion bolt at the bottom.
-
(Optional) Install the screw for locking the DC switch.
-
Install the solar inverter onto the mounting bracket.
-
(Optional) Install an anti-theft lock.
Note:

lock hole diameter (Ф10 mm) so that it can be installed successfully. An
outdoor waterproof lock is recommended.
Connecting Cables
Preparing Cables
Warning
- Do not connect loads between the inverter and the AC switch that directly connects to the inverter. Otherwise, the switch may trip by mistake.
- If an AC switch is used with specifications beyond local standards, regulations, or Huawei’s recommendations, the switch may fail to turn off in a timely manner in case of exceptions, causing serious faults.
Caution
Each inverter must be equipped with an AC output switch. Multiple inverters
cannot connect to the same AC output switch.
Notice:
- To ensure that the inverter can be safely disconnected from the power grid when an exception occurs, connect an AC switch to the AC side of the inverter. Select an appropriate AC switch in accordance with local industry standards and regulations.
- Connect cables in accordance with the local installation laws and regulations.
- Before connecting cables, ensure that the DC switch of the solar inverter and all the switches connected to it are set to OFF. Otherwise, the high voltage produced by the solar inverter may cause electric shocks.

Installing the PE Cable
Do not connect the neutral wire to the enclosure as a PE cable. Otherwise,
electric shocks may occur.
NOTE:
- The PE point at the AC output port is used only as a PE equipotential point, and cannot substitute for the PE point on the enclosure.
- Silica gel or paint must be applied around the ground terminal after the PE cable is connected.
- It is recommended that the right ground point be used for grounding. The other ground point is reserved.
Installing a WLAN Antenna or Smart Dongle
- If FE communication is used, install a WLAN-FE Smart Dongle (SDongleA-05). You need to purchase the WLAN-FE Smart Dongle by yourself.
- If 4G communication is used, install a 4G Smart Dongle (SDongleA-03). You need to purchase the 4G Smart Dongle by yourself.
WLAN Antenna (WLAN Communication)
(Optional) WLAN-FE Smart Dongle (FE Communication)
You are advised to use a Cat 5e outdoor shielded network cable (outer
diameter < 9 mm; internal resistance ≤ 1.5 ohms/10 m) and shielded RJ45
connectors.
(Optional) 4G Smart Dongle (4G Communication)
- If your Smart Dongle is configured with a SIM card, you do not need to install the SIM card. The configured SIM card can be used only on the Smart Dongle.
- If your Smart Dongle is not equipped with a SIM card, prepare a standard SIM card (size: 25 mm x 15 mm) with the capacity greater than or equal to 64 KB.
- Install the SIM card in the arrow direction.
- When reinstalling the cover of the Smart Dongle, ensure that the buckle springs back in place (you can hear a click).
- For details about how to operate the WLAN-FE Smart Dongle SDongleA-05, see SDongleA-05 Smart Dongle Quick Guide (WLAN-FE).
- For details about how to operate the 4G Smart Dongle SDongleA-03, see SDongleA-03 Quick Guide (4G).
- The quick guide is delivered with the Smart Dongle. You can download them by scanning the QR code below.
Installing the AC Output Power Cable
Notice:
Ensure that the protective layer of the AC output power cable is inside the
connector, that the core wires are totally inserted into the cable hole, and
that the cable is connected securely. Failing to do so may cause device
malfunction or damage.
-
Connect the AC output power cable to the AC connector.
Three-Core Cable (L, N, and PE)
Note
The method for connecting a two-core AC output power cable is the same except that the cable is not connected to PE.
-
Connect the AC connector to the AC output port. Check the route of the AC output power cable.
To remove the AC connector, perform the operations in reverse order of installing the AC connector. Then, remove the plug insert, as shown in the following figure.
Installing DC Input Power Cables
Notice:
- Ensure that the PV module output is well insulated to ground.
- Use the Staubli MC4 positive and negative metal terminals and DC connectors supplied with the solar inverter. Using incompatible positive and negative metal terminals and DC connectors may result in serious consequences. The caused device damage is not covered under warranty.
- The DC input voltage of the solar inverter must not exceed maximum input voltage.
- Before installing DC input power cables, label the cable polarities to ensure correct cable connections.
- If DC input power cables are reversely connected, do not operate the DC switch as well as positive and negative connectors immediately. Failing to do so may cause device damage, which is not covered under warranty. Wait until the solar irradiance declines at night and the PV string current reduces to below 0.5 A, and then turn off the DC switch and remove the positive and negative connectors. Correct the string polarity before reconnecting the PV string to the solar inverter.
-
Assemble DC connectors.
If the PV strings are configured with Smart PV Optimizers, refer to the Smart PV Optimizer Quick Guide to check the cable polarity. -
Connect DC input power cables.
(Optional) Installing Battery Cables
Danger
- Use insulated tools when connecting cables.
- Connect battery cables with correct polarity. If battery cables are reversely connected, the solar inverter may be damaged.
Assemble the positive and negative connectors by following the instructions in section 3.5 “Installing DC Input Power Cables.”
(Optional) Installing Signal Cables
NOTICE:
- When laying out a signal cable, separate it from power cables to avoid strong signal interference.
- Ensure that the protective layer of the cable is inside the connector, that excess core wires are cut off from the protection layer, that the exposed core wire is totally inserted into the cable hole, and that the cable is connected securely.
- Block the unused cable hole using a cap and tighten the cable gland.
- If more than one signal cables are required, ensure that they have the same outer diameter.
