Safety Disclaimer

DC Side:

1. Ensure the component frames and the bracket system are securely grounded.
2. Connect the DC cables using the delivered DC connectors and terminals. The manufacturer shall not be liable for the equipment damage if other connectors or terminals are used.
3. Ensure the DC cables are connected tightly and securely.
4. Measure the DC cable using the multimeter to avoid reverse polarity connection. Also, the voltage should be under the permissible range (≤1100V).

AC Side

1. The voltage and frequency at the connecting point should meet the on-grid requirements.
2.  An additional protective device like the circuit breaker or fuse is recommended on the AC side. Specification of the protective device should be at least 1.25 times the AC output rated current.
3. PE cable of the inverter must be connected firmly. The resistance between the neutral wire and the earth cable is less than 10Ω.
4. You are recommended to use copper cables as AC output cables. Contact the manufacturer if you want to use aluminum cables.

Inverter Side:

1. Terminals at the bottom of the inverter cannot bear much load. Otherwise, the terminals will be damaged.
2. All labels and warning marks must be clear after the installation. Do not scrawl, damage or block any label on the device.
3. Warning labels on the inverter are as following.

• High voltage hazard. Power off the inverter first before any operations.
• Read through the guide before any operations.
• High temperature hazard. Do not touch the equipment to avoid being hurt.
• Delayed discharge. Wait until the components are totally discharged after power off.
• N/A

Check Items Before Switching Power ON
