1 Notes on this Manual
General Notes
Solplanet inverter is a transformerless solar inverter with indenpendent MPP tracker.
It converts the direct current (DC) from a photovoltaic (PV) array to grid-compliant
alternating current (AC) and feeds it into the utility grid.
1.1 Area of validity
This manual describes mounting, installation, commissioning and maintenance of the
following Solplanet inverters:
ASW1000S-S
ASW1500S-S
ASW2000S-S
ASW3000S-S
1.2 Target group
This manual is for qualified electricians only, who must perform the tasks exactly as
described.
All persons installing inverters must be trained and experienced in general safety
which must be observed when working on electrical equipments. Installation
personnel should also be familiar with local requirements, rules and regulations.
Qualified persons must have the following skills:
•Knowledge of how an inverter works and is operated
•Training in how to deal with the dangers and risks associated with installing,
repairing and
using electrical devices and installations
•Training in the installation and commissioning of electrical devices and
installations
•Knowledge of all applicable laws, standards and directives
•Knowledge of and compliance with this document and all safety
information

1.3 Symbols used in this manual
The safety precautions and general information are used in this manual as follows:
DANGER indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result
in death or serious injury.
WARNING indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, can
result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, can
result in minor or moderate injury.
NOTICE indicates a situation which, if not avoided, can result in property
damage.
INFORMATION provides tips which are valuable for the optimal
installation and operation of the inverter.

2 Safety
2.1 Intended use
1. Solplanet inverter converts the direct current from PV array into grid-compliant
alternating current.
2. The product is suitable for indoor and outdoor use.
3. The product must only be operated with PV arrays (PV modules and cabling) of
protection class II, in accordance with IEC 61730, application class A. Do not connect
any sources of energy other than PV modules to the inverter.
4. PV modules with a high capacitance to ground must only be used if their coupling
capacitance is less than 1.0μF.
5. When the PV modules are exposed to sunlight, a DC voltage is supplied to this
equipment.
6. All components must remain within their permitted operating ranges at all times.
7. The product is also approved for the Australian market and may be used in
Australia. If DRM support is specified, the inverter may only be used in conjunction
with a Demand Response Enabling Device (DRED). This ensures that the inverter
implements the commands from the grid operator for active power limitation at all
times. The inverter and the Demand Response Enabling Device (DRED) must be
connected in the same network and the inverter communication interface must be
activated.
8. When designing a PV system, ensure that the values comply with the permitted
operating range of all components at all times.
2.2 Safety standards
Solplanet inverters comply with the EU Low-Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU and the
EMC Directive 2014/30/EU. Solplanet inverters also comply with the requirement for
safety and EMC in Australia and New Zealand market. They are labeled with the CE
mark and RCM mark.

2.3 Important safety information
Danger to life due to electric shock when live components or cables
are touched
• All work on the inverter must only be carried out by qualified
personnel who have read and fully understood all safety information
contained in this manual.
• Do not open the product
• Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with this
device
Danger to life due to high voltages of the PV array
When exposed to sunlight, the PV array generates dangerous DC
voltage which is present in the DC conductors and the live components
of the inverter. Touching the DC conductors or the live components
can lead to lethal electric shocks. If you disconnect the DC connectors
from the inverter under load, an electric arc may occur leading to
electric shock and burns.
•Do not touch non-insulated cable ends.
•Do not touch the DC conductors.
•Do not touch any live components of the inverter.
•Have the inverter mounted, installed and commissioned only by
qualified persons with the appropriate skills.
•If an error occurs, have it rectified by qualified persons only.
•Prior to performing any work on the inverter, disconnect it from all
voltage sources as described in this document(see Section 9
"Disconnecting the Inverter from Voltage Sources").

8 Installation and Operating Instructions V00
Risk of injury due to electric shock and fire caused by high leakage
current
• The inverter must be reliably grounded in order to protect property
and personal safety.
Risk of injury due to hot heat sink
• The heat sink may get hot during operation. Do not touch!
Possible damage to health as a result of the effects of
electromagnetic radiation
• Please maintain a distance of at least 20cm from the inverter when it
is in operation.
Grounding the PV array
• Comply with local regulations for grounding the PV array. We
suggest the frames of PV modules must be reliably grounded.
• Do not ground any of the terminals of the strings.

Installation and Operating Instructions V00 9
Damage to the inverter due to electrostatic discharge
•Touching electronic components can cause damage to or destroy the
inverter through electrostatic discharge.
• Ground yourself before touching any component.
