2.1 Safety Instructions
Danger to life due to lethal voltages!
Lethal voltages are present within the unit and on the power
supply lines. Therefore, only authorized electricians may
install and open the unit.
Even when the unit is disconnected, high contact voltages
may still be present within the unit.
DANGER
DANGER
Danger of burn injuries due to hot enclosure parts!
During operation, the four sides of the enclosure lid and the
heat sink may become hot.
Only touch the front enclosure lid during operation.
CAUTION
Possible damage to health as a result of the effects of
radiation!
In special cases, there may still be interference for the
specified application area despite maintaining standardized
emission limit values (e.g. when sensitive equipment is
located at the setup location or when the setup location is
near radio or television receivers).In this case, the operator is
obliged to take proper action to rectify the situation.
Do not stay closer than 20 cm to the inverter for any length
of time.
NOTICE
Grounding the PV generator
Comply with the local requirements for grounding the PV
modules and the PV generator. Growatt recommends
connecting the generator frame and other electrically
conductive surfaces in a manner which ensures continuous
conduction with ground these in order to have optimal
protection of the system and personnel.
