then measure the distance from EPM to inverter. Use proper cable for RS485
connection. (0.5mm²)
3. Connect and fix the CT
To detect the backflow power, the CTs need to be installed at the PCC
(Point of Common Coupling), instead of the load branch circuit.
c. Follow step1 to assemble 2 connectors to each end of cable.
a. Switch off the main switch, disconnect the line cables.
b. Insert the cables through the CT, make sure the P1 on CT is towards grid and
P2 is towards the inverter.
c. Reconnect the line cables.

Solis recommends customers to purchase suitable current transformers from
local suppliers according to the max possible current in different projects.
As long as the secondary current is 5A,it will not affect the warranty of the
EPM devices and inverters.
Solis can also provide above current transformers as an optional accessory.
Customers can contact Solis sales rep to place the order based on their project
requirements.

5. Commission and decommission4. Installation
4. Muti inverter connection
Please follow figure 4.6 system diagram to connect muti-inverters. EPM can control
maximum 80 inverters. One grid connection point ONLY.
The inverter address must be set to different value. Please set address from 01 to 80.
Before start up inverter please follow 6.5.1 to set inverter number in EPM.
5. Monitoring
Two methods of monitoring are available with the EPM device connected.
1. Through WiFi antenna on the EPM device.
This is similar with the Solis WiFi datalogger. The WiFi antenna can broadcast data
to the local router and then to the Solis monitoring platform. No wiring is needed.
2. Through RJ45 cable
This port is used for connection directly to the router.
Note:
When connect the inverters to the EPM, do not use the other ports on
inverters to realize the monitoring function.
1. Make sure the main switch is off and the system is powered off.
2. Connect all the necessary cables on EPM, such as the CT ports, COMM-INV port,
Grid port and (if needed) the LAN port.
3. Connect the other end of the cables to inverter, PCC or monitoring device(if needed),
respectively.
4. Turn on the main switch, go to the EPM LCD.
5. Set the inverter number, backflow power, CT parameter as described in section 6.5
6.Check if the backflow power of the system is limited to the set value.
5.1 Commissioning
5.2 Decommissioning
In order to aovid the backflow power to grid, please stop the inverter before stop the EPM.
1. Turn off the inverter output AC breaker or select "grid off" on each inverters' LCD.
2. Turn off inverter input DC breaker or pull out PV cable to stop inverter.
3. Turn off the grid input breaker of EPM.
4. Disconnect all cable of EPM, disassemble EPM after 5mins.

EMC requirements. Before delivering to the customer, the EPM has been subjected to
several tests to ensure its optimal operation and reliability.
In case of failure, the LCD screen will display alarm message.
The EPM can show Alarm it self or alarm from inverter. There are 3 alarm can be
showed on LCD:
1. Backflow
There are backflow current to grid, customer need to stop inverter. and check the
connections for the RS485 cable between EPM and inverter.
2. INV. fault
There are fault alarm in inverter, need to check inverter status.
