2.4 Protection Circuitry and Controls
The Hoymiles HYS-(3.8-11.5)LV-USG1 series inverter is equipped with arc fault
circuit breakers (AFCI) and rapid shutdown (RSD) for the protection circuit
and control to meet the relevant codes and standards. 2.4.1 AFCI According to
2011 NEC Section 690.11, photovoltaic systems operating at 80 volts DC or
greater between any two conductors shall be protected by a listed PV arc-fault
circuit interrupter or other system components listed to provide equivalent
protection. The AFCI function is integrated into the HYS-(3.8-11.5)LV-USG1
series inverter. Once an arc fault is detected, the corresponding error and
time will be reported in the App. Within 24 hours, when the first four faults
occur, the inverter will automatically clear the alarms and restart; when the
fifth fault occurs, the inverter will shut down, and cannot automatically
clear the alarm and restart. The inverter will resume operation after
inspecting and repairing the arc fault position on-site, and manually clearing
the alarm. 2.4.2 RSD The HYS-(3.8-11.5)LV-USG1 series inverter integrates the
transmitter HT10. When paired with Hoymiles rapid shutdown HRSD (HRSD-1C or
HRSD-2C) and powered on, HT10 sends a “permission to operate” signal to HRSD
that is connected to the PV modules. Once HRSD receives this signal, it will
start to work and enable PV modules to be connected in series to the hybrid
inverter, thus producing power. When HRSD gets this signal, it will start to
work and allow the string voltage to ramp up. When the HRSD loses this signal,
it will be in the standby state, and the HRSD only outputs around 1 Vdc.
Rapid Shutdown Initiation Process: 1. Press the switch button to turn off the
internal transmitter. This will initiate rapid shutdown of the PV (ramps the
PV voltage down). 2. Twist the switch clockwise to turn on the transmitter.
This will bring the PV voltage back up to normal.
Note: The rapid shutdown will only be initiated if HRSD has been installed on
the PV modules. Without the HRSD, rapid shutdown is not possible.

2.5 Operating Modes
Main Operation Modes The following operation modes are applicable for the HYS
series inverter, and are also applicable for the HAS series inverter which is
connected to the PV inverter through the GEN port.
Self-consumption Mode
In the daytime, solar energy supports the loads first and surplus energy is
stored in the battery. When the battery is fully charged or reaches the
maximum charge power, the rest energy is fed into the grid (if allowed).
At night, the battery discharges for the loads first, and the grid will supply
the loads once the battery power is not enough. In this mode, the battery
cannot be charged from the grid at night.

Economic Mode
In this mode, the time of battery charge and discharge needs to be set. The battery can be forced to discharge during the preset discharge time. For instance, the battery could be discharged according to peak electricity price, and the battery can be charged by surplus PV power in the daytime or from the grid during the period of valley electricity price (if allowed).

3.4.5 Battery Cable Connection
This section mainly describes the cable connections on the inverter side.
Refer to the instructions supplied by the battery manufacturer for the
connections on the battery side. For batteries without a built-in DC breaker,
make sure that an external DC breaker is connected. If you need to use this
hybrid inverter or AC-coupled inverter as a grid-tied inverter, please contact
Hoymiles for help.
WARNING
· A two-pole DC breaker with an over current protection (OCP) function is
compulsory to be installed between the inverter and battery. The battery may
have this switch integrated. If not, an external DC switch of proper ratings
should be used.
· Make sure the breaker mentioned above is in the “OFF” position. · Before
proceeding to the next step, make sure that the battery voltage is 0
Vdc through a multimeter.
NOTICE
· Do not turn the battery switch on until all cables are properly connected. ·
The inverter is compatible with specific batteries. For battery models that
this inverter supports, please refer to the Hoymiles compatible battery list.

(1): Cessation of current exchange of DER with Area EPS in not more than the
maximum specified time and with no intentional delay. This does not
necessarily imply disconnection, isolation, or a trip of the DER. This may
include momentary cessation or trip. (2): Temporarily cease to energize an
EPS, while connected to the Area EPS, in response to a disturbance of the
applicable voltages or the system frequency, with the capability of
immediately restoring output of operation when the applicable voltages and the
system frequency return to within defined ranges. (3): The voltage threshold
between mandatory operation and momentary operation may be changed by mutual
agreement between the Area EPS operator and DER operator.
3. Frequency Trip_240 V When the power grid frequency is abnormal, the
inverter can be turned off for a certain period of time.
