Wiring Description of Y-branch Connectors

NOTICE

  • Y-branch connectors can be purchased from Huawei or the manufacturers based on the following recommended models: If the rated current of the fuse of the Y-branch connector is 15 A, the recommended model is 904095944 (Luxshare) or A040959443039 (Comlink); if the rated the current of the fuse of the Y-branch connector is 20 A, the recommended model is 904095945 (Luxshare) or A040959453039 (Comlink).
  • Do not use Y-branch connectors that are not recommended.
  • When connecting cables to recommended Y-branch connectors, ensure that the connectors to be paired match each other and are from the same manufacturer. Otherwise, the contact resistance of the connectors may exceed the allowed value. In this case, the connectors may be heated and oxidized, which may cause faults.
  • When the Y-branch connector is used with the MC4 EVO2 contacts, you are advised to use the 32.6020-22100-HZ (Staubli) crimping tool. You can also use the PV-CZM- 22100 (Staubli) crimping tool. When choosing PV-CZM-22100 (Staubli), do not use the locator. Otherwise, the metal contacts would be damaged.
  • Ensure that the locking nuts of all connectors are tightened.
  • Do not bind more than three fuse enclosures together. Otherwise, the fuses and their enclosures may be damaged due to overheating. It is recommended that a clearance of 10  mm or more be reserved between fuse enclosures. You are advised not to bind the fuse enclosures with other heat-emitting conductors.
  • Do not place the Y-branch connector harness on the ground. A safe distance must be reserved between the Y-branch connector harness and the ground to avoid impact caused by water on the ground to the harness.
  • It is recommended that Y-branch connectors be connected from the PV string side or connected to the solar inverter with a safe distance of at least 4 m and bound to the PV support.
  • The DC input terminals of the solar inverter are prone to damage under stress. When Y-branch connectors are connected to the solar inverter, bind and secure the connectors to prevent the DC input terminals from bearing stress. For details.
    Wiring rules:
    1. A maximum of one set of Y-branch connectors can be used for each MPPT.
    2. The PV+ on the solar inverter side must be connected to the PV+ on the PV string side, and the PV– on the solar inverter side must be connected to the PV– on the PV string side.
    3. Preferentially and evenly connect the Y-branch connectors to the MPPTs controlled by DC SWITCH 2 or DC SWITCH 3.

Installing a DC input power cable

NOTICE

  1. Use the positive and negative Staubli MC4 metal contacts and DC connectors supplied with the solar inverter. Using incompatible positive and negative metal contacts and  DC connectors may result in serious consequences. The caused device damage is not covered under any warranty.
  2. Before connecting the DC input power cables, label the cable polarities to ensure correct cable connections. Otherwise, the solar inverter may be damaged. Measure the voltage at the DC input end using a multimeter set to the DC position. If the voltage is a negative value, the DC input polarity is incorrect. Correct the polarity. If the voltage is greater than 1100 V, too many PV modules are configured to the same string. Remove some PV modules.
  3. If the DC input power cable is reversely connected and the DC switches are set to ON, do not perform any operation on the switches or the positive and negative connectors.  Otherwise, the device may be damaged. The caused device damage is not covered under any warranty. Wait until the solar irradiance weakens at night and the PV  string current decreases below 0.5 A. Set the three DC switches to OFF, and correct the connection of positive and negative connectors.

4.8 Installing the RS485 Communications Cable

NOTICE

  • The solar inverter supports RS485 communication and MBUS communication. If the MBUS communication mode is used, you do not need to connect the communications cable to the RS485-1 port.
  • This section describes how to connect three communications cables.
  • When routing communications cables, separate communications cables from power cables to prevent communication from being affected.
