Surge protection devices (SPDs) for PV installation
Over-voltage protection with surge arresters should be provided
when the PV power system is installed.
The grid connected inverter is not fitted with SPDs in both PV
input side and MAINS side.
WARNING !
Induced surges are the most likely cause of lightning damage in majority or installations,
especially in rural areas where electricity is usually provided by long overhead lines.
Surge may be included on both the PV array conduction and the AC cables leading
to the building.
Specialists in lightning protection should be consulted during the end use application.
Using appropriate external lightning protection, the effect of a direct lightning strike
into a building can be mitigated in a controlled way, and the lightning current can
be discharged into the ground.
Installation of SPDs to protect the inverter against mechanical damage and excessive
stress include a surge arrester in case of a building with external lightning protection
system (LPS) when separation distance is kept.
To protect the DC system, surge suppression device (SPD type2) should be fitted
at the inverter end of the DC cabling and at the array located between the inverter
and the PV generator, if the voltage protection level (VP) of the surge arresters is
greater than 1100V, an additional SPD type 3 required for surge protection for
electrical devices.
To protect the AC system, surge suppression devices (SPD type2) should be
fitted at the main incoming point of AC supply (at the consumer’s cutout),
located between the inverter and the meter/distribution system; SPD (test
impulse D1) for signal line according to EN 61632-1.
All DC cables should be installed to provide as short a run as possible, and positive
and negative cables of the string or main DC supply should be bundled together.
Avoiding the creation of loops in the system. This requirement for short runs
and bundling includes any associated earth bundling conductors .
Spark gap devices are not suitable to be used in DC circuits once conducting,
they won’t stop conducting until the voltage across their terminals is typically
more than 30 volts.
Lightning will cause a damage either from a direct strike or from surges due to a
nearby strike.
►
Anti-Islanding Effect
►
Islanding effect is a special phenomenon that grid-connected PV system still
supply power to the nearby grid when the voltage loss is happened in the
power system. It is dangerous for maintenance personnel and the public.
X1-Hybrid seires inverter provide Active Frequency Drift(AFD) to prevent
islanding effect.
PE Connection and Leakage Current
•The end-use application shall monitor the protective conductor by residual
current operated protective device (RCD) with rated fault current Ifn≤240mA
which automatically disconnects the device in case of a fault.
The device is intended to connect to a PV generator with a capacitance limit of
approx 700nf.
High leakage current!
Earth connection essential before connecting supply.
WARNING !

Work modes: Self-use (without PV Power)
When no PV supplied, battery will discharge
for local loads firstly, and grid will supply
power when the battery capacity is not
enough.
EPS Status
When the grid is off, system will supply
emergency power from PV or battery to
supply the home loads. (Battery is necessary
in EPS mode.)
3.2 Work Modes
Selfnergy M Series inverter provides multiple work modes based on
different requirements.
Work modes: Feed in Priority
Priority:load>grid>battery
This mode applies the area that has high feed-in
tariff and export control.
The PV generated power will be used to
supply the local loads firstly, then export to the
public grid. The redundant power will charge
the battery.
Work modes: Back up mode
Priority:battery>load>grid
This mode applies the area that has frequent
power outages. And this mode ensures the
battery will has enough energy to supply when
the grid is off.
In this mode battery will be charging forcibly
in the setting time and will never be
discharged when the grid is on, and it also
allows to choose whether charge from the
grid or not.
Work modes: Self-use (with PV Power)
Priority: load>battery>grid
This mode applies the area that has low feed-in
tariff and high energy price.
Work modes: Force time use
Priority:battery>load>grid(when charging)
Priority:load>battery>grid(when discharging)
This mode applies the area that has electricity
price between peak and valley. User can use off-
peak electricity to charge the battery.
The power generated from PV will be used to
supply the local loads firstly, then to charge
the battery. The redundant power will export
to the public grid.
The charging and discharging time can be set
flexibly, and it also allows to choose whether
charge from the grid or not.

6.3 EPS Connection( apply to I Version and E Version only)
Selfnergy M series inverter has On and Off grid function, the inverter will deliver
output power through AC port when the grid is on, and it will deliver output
power through EPS port when the the grid is off.
ØI Version & E Version
Selfnergy M series inverter provides two versions for customer to choose based on
the local rules.
“I Version” means inverter has an build-in changeover switch. This version applies
to the wiring rules which requires Neutral line of alternative supply must not be
isolated or switched.(applies to wiring rules AS/NZS3000:2014 of Australia and
New Zealand.)
“E Version” means inverter needs to install an external changeover device for EPS
function. This version applies to the wiring rules which allows Neutral line of
alternative supply can be isolated or switched.( applies to most of the countries)
ØAuto & Manual
EPS function can be achieved automatically or manually according to user’s wishes.
For “I Version” inverter, EPS function can only be triggered automatically.
For “E Version” inverter, EPS function can be triggered either automatically or
manually according to user’s preference.
If user wants to use this function manually, it will need to be installed an external
switch. Please refer to specific wiring diagram below.
For automatical solution, please contact our sales.
