CAUTION:
If DC inputs are accidently reversely connected or inverter is faulty or not working properly, it is NOT allowed to turn off the DC switch. Otherwise it may cause DC arc and damage the inverter or even lead to a fire disaster.
The correct actions are:
Use a clip-on ammeter to measure the DC string current.
If it is above 0.5A, please wait for the solar irradiance reduces until the current decreases to below 0.5A.
*Only after the current is below 0.5A, you are allowed to turn off the DC switches and disconnect the PV strings.

  • In order to completely eliminate the possibility of failure, please disconnect the PV strings after turning off the DC switch to aviod secondary failures due to continuous PV energy on the next day.
