1.1 Operation Modes Introduction
01 Product Introduction
The ET series and ET Plus series, also called hybrid or bidirectional solar inverters, provides
energy management in a PV system that includes solar modules, a battery, loads, and utility grid
connection. Energy produced by the PV system is prioritized to supply loads and then any excess
energy to charge the battery. When the battery is fully charged, excess energy can be exported to
the utility grid (if permitted). The inverter power rate limit (WGra) is not applicable to operate the
mode of Changes in energy source operation.
The battery shall discharge to support loads when PV power is insucient to meet self-
consumption needs. If battery power is not sucient, the system will take power from the utility
grid to support loads.
The preceding introduction describes the general operation
of the ET system. The operation mode can be changed
with the PV Master app based on the system layout. The
possible operation modes for the ET system are shown
below.
ET system normally has the following operation modes based on your conguration and layout
conditions.
Mode I
The energy produced by the PV system is used
to optimize self-consumption needs. The excess
energy is used to recharge the batteries, any
remaining excess is then exported to the grid.
Mode III
(If backup function is included) When the grid
fails, the system will automatically switch
to back-up mode. The back-up loads can be
supplied by both PV and battery energy.
Mode II
If the PV system is currently not generating
any electricity and the battery is charged,
loads are supplied with electricity from the
battery and the grid.
Mode IV
Battery could be charged by grid, and
charge time/power could be set to various
options on the PV Master App.

Product IntroductionUser Manual V1.2-2022-03-30
Any installation or operations on the inverter must be performed by qualied electricians
in compliance with standards, wiring rules and the requirements of local grid authorities or
companies (such as AS 4777 and AS/NZS 3000 in Australia).
Never insert or remove the AC or DC connections when the inverter is running.
Before making any wiring connections or performing electrical operations on the inverter, all
DC and AC power must be disconnected from the inverter for at least 5 minutes to make sure
that the inverter is totally isolated to avoid electric shock.
The temperature of the inverter surface can exceed 60℃ during operation. Make sure it has
cooled down before touching it and make sure the inverter is out of reach of children.
Do not open the inverter cover or change any components without manufacturer's
authorization. Otherwise, the warranty for the inverter will be invalid.
The usage and operation of the inverter must follow the instructions in this User Manual.
Otherwise, the protection design might be impaired and the warranty for the inverter will be
invalid.
Appropriate methods must be adopted to protect the inverter from static electricity damage.
Any damage caused by static electricity is not warranted by the manufacturer.
PV negative (PV-) and battery negative (BAT-) on inverter side are not grounded as the default
design. Connecting either PV- or BAT- to EARTH is strictly forbidden.
Any PV modules used with the inverter must have an IEC61730 class A rating, and the total
open-circuit voltage of the PV string/array must be lower than the maximum rated DC input
voltage of the inverter. Any damage caused by PV overvoltage is not covered by the warranty.
When exposed to sunlight, the PV array generates dangerous high DC voltages.
Please operate the inverter according to these instructions, or danger to life may result.
The inverter, with a built-in RCMU, will prevent the possibility of DC residual currents up to
6mA. Thus, in the system, an external RCD (type A) can be used (≥30mA).
In Australia, the output of the backup side in the switchbox should be labelled "Main Switch
UPS Supply". The output on the normal load side in the switch box should be labelled "Main
Switch Inverter Supply".
In Australia, the inverter internal switching does not maintain neutral integrity, which must
be addressed by external connection arrangements like in the System connection diagrams.

2.4.4 On-Grid&Back-up Connection
An external AC breaker is needed for on-grid connection to isolate the inverter from the utility
grid when necessary.
Note: Backup function is optional for the German market, even though the hardware connector is always
there. Backup function is standard in all other markets.
The requirements for the on-grid AC breaker are shown below.
Requirement of AC cable connected to On-Grid and Back-Up side.
Make sure the inverter is totally isolated from any DC or AC power before connecting the
AC cable.
Prepare the terminals and AC cables according to the correct table.
Note:
1. The neutral cable shall be blue, the line cable shall be black or brown (preferred), and the protective
earth cable shall be yellow-green.
2. For AC cables, the PE cable shall be longer than the N&L cables. This provides protection in case the
AC cable slips or is removed, the ensuring that the earth conductor will be the last cable to take the
strain.
Note: The absence of AC breaker will lead to inverter damage if an electrical short circuit happens on
grid side.

Installation Instructions User Manual V1.2-2022-03-30
Declarations for the backup function
The backup outputs of the inverters have overload capability.
For details please refer to the technical parameters.
The inverter has self-protection derating at high ambient temperatures.
The statement below lays out the general policies governing the series EH, EM, ES, ET, BH, BT
and SBP energy storage inverters.
1. For hybrid inverters (e.g. Series EH, EM, ES, and ET), a standard PV installation typically
consists connecting the inverter to both panels and batteries. When the system is not connected
to the batteries, the manufacturer strongly advises that the backup function not be used. The
manufacturer will not honour the standard warranty and will not be liable for any consequences
arising from users not following this instruction.
2. Under normal circumstances, the backup switching time is less than 10ms (e.g. the minimal
condition to be considered as a UPS-level switching). However, some external factors may cause
the system to fail in backup mode. Due to this, we recommend that users to be aware of these
conditions and follow the instructions as described below:
• Do not connect loads which are dependent on a stable energy supply for reliable operation.
• Do not connect the loads which may, in total, exceed the maximum backup capacity.
• Try to avoid those loads which may create very high start-up current surges such as inverters,
air conditioners, high-power pumps etc.
• Due to the battery condition itself, the battery current might be limited by factors including
but not limited to temperature and weather etc.
Acceptable loads are shown below:
• Inductive Loads: 1.5 P non-frequency conversion air conditioners can be connected to the
backup side. Two or more non-frequency conversion air conditioners connected to backup side
may cause the back-up mode to be unstable.
• Capacitive Loads: A total power ≤0.6 × nominal power of the model. (Any load with high
startup current is not acceptable.)
• For complicated applications, please contact the GoodWe Solar Academy.
Note:
For convenient maintenance, please install a SP 3T switch on both the backup and on-grid sides. Then it
is adjustable to support load by backup or by grid or default settings.
1. The backup load is supplied from backup
side.
2. The backup load is isolated.
3. The backup load is supplied from grid side.
Declarations for backup overload protection
The inverter will restart itself if overload protection is triggered. The preparation time for
restarting will be increasingly long (one hour at most) if an overload recurs. Take the following
steps to immediately restart the inverter.
Decrease the backup load power to within the maximum limitation.
