Step 1. Verify the grid voltage to match with microinverter rating
Step 2. The AC bus distribution
a. The AC bus is arranged at the proper position of the microinverter.
b. One end of the AC bus access junction box into power grid.
c. Wire the conductors of the AC bus: L - BROWN; N - BLUE.

sun, rain or snow, even gap between modules. Allow a minimum of 3/4’’(1.5cm.) between the roof
and the bottom of the microinverter to allow proper air flow.The racking of install microinverter
must be reliably grounding.
d. Mark the location of the microinverter on the rack, with respect to the PV module
junction box or any other obstructions.
e. Mount one microinverter at each of these locations using hardware recommended
by your module racking vendor.when install microinverter, grounding washer

in 1,2 in the label below,according to the layout on the roof..
c. The other one serial number label, posted on the solar module frame is easy to view the
position.
d. After the completion of installation drawings sent to APsystems website.
www.APsystems.com.
NOTE: Sequence of steps 1~8 can change for convenience of installation.
NOTE: Using APsystems' mobile app ArrayApp can make the installation and registration much
more simple.
Step 9. Start the operation
