Do not work with power on during installation.
After installing the equipment, remove idle packing materials such as cartons, foam,
plastics, and cable ties from the equipment area.
In the case of a fire, immediately leave the building or the equipment area, and turn on
the fire alarm bell or make an emergency call. Do not enter the building on fire in any
case.
Do not scrawl, damage, or block any warning label on the equipment.
Tighten the screws using tools when installing the equipment.
Understand the components and functioning of a grid-tied PV power system and relevant
local standards.
Personal Safety
If there is a probability of personal injury or equipment damage during operations on the
equipment, immediately stop the operations, report the case to the supervisor, and take
feasible protective measures.
Use tools correctly to avoid hurting people or damaging the equipment.
1.2 Personnel Requirements
Personnel who plan to install or maintain Huawei equipment must receive thorough
training, understand all necessary safety precautions, and be able to correctly perform all
operations.
Only qualified professionals or trained personnel are allowed to install, operate, and
maintain the equipment.
Only qualified professionals are allowed to remove safety facilities and inspect the
equipment.
Personnel who will operate the equipment, including operators, trained personnel, and
professionals, should possess the local national required qualifications in special
operations such as high-voltage operations, working at heights, and operations of special
equipment.

1.3 Electrical Safety
Grounding
For the equipment that needs to be grounded, install the ground cable first when
installing the equipment and remove the ground cable last when removing the
equipment.
Do not damage the ground conductor.
Do not operate the equipment in the absence of a properly installed ground conductor.
Ensure that the equipment is connected permanently to the protective ground. Before
operating the equipment, check its electrical connection to ensure that it is securely
grounded.
General Requirements
Before connecting cables, ensure that the equipment is intact. Otherwise, electric shocks or
fire may occur.
Ensure that all electrical connections comply with local electrical standards.
Ensure that the cables you prepared meet local regulations.
AC and DC Power
Do not connect or disconnect power cables with power on. Transient contact between the core
of the power cable and the conductor will generate electric arcs or sparks, which may cause
fire or personal injury.
Before making electrical connections, switch off the disconnector on the upstream device
to cut off the power supply if people may contact energized components.
Before connecting a power cable, check that the label on the power cable is correct.
If the equipment has multiple inputs, disconnect all the inputs before operating the
equipment.
Cabling
When routing cables, ensure that a distance of at least 30 mm exists between the cables
and heat-generating components or areas. This prevents damage to the insulation layer of
the cables.
Bind cables of the same type together. When routing cables of different types, ensure that
they are at least 30 mm away from each other.

ESD
When installing, operating, and maintaining the equipment, comply with the ESD protection
regulations and wear the ESD clothing, gloves, and wrist strap.
1.4 Installation Environment Requirements
Ensure that the equipment is installed in a well ventilated environment.
Do not expose the equipment to flammable or explosive gas or smoke. Do not perform
any operation on the equipment in such environments.
1.5 Mechanical Safety
Using Ladders
Use wooden or fiberglass ladders when you need to perform live working at heights.
When a step ladder is used, ensure that the pull ropes are secured and the ladder is held
firm.
Before using a ladder, check that it is intact and confirm its load bearing capacity. Do not
overload it.
Ensure that the wider end of the ladder is at the bottom, or protective measures have
been taken at the bottom to prevent the ladder from sliding.
Ensure that the ladder is securely positioned. The recommended angle for a ladder
against the floor is 75 degrees, as shown in the following figure. An angle rule can be
used to measure the angle.
When climbing a ladder, take the following precautions to reduce risks and ensure
safety:
Keep your body steady.
Do not climb higher than the fourth rung of the ladder from the top.
Ensure that your body's center of gravity does not shift outside the legs of the ladder.

Drilling Holes
When drilling holes into a wall or floor, observe the following safety precautions: Wear
goggles and protective gloves when drilling holes.
When drilling holes, protect the equipment from shavings. After drilling, clean up any
shavings that have accumulated inside or outside the equipment.
Moving Heavy Objects
Be cautious to avoid injury when moving heavy objects.
When moving the equipment by hand, wear protective gloves to prevent injuries.
1.6 Commissioning
When the equipment is powered on for the first time, ensure that professional personnel set
parameters correctly. Incorrect settings may result in inconsistency with local certification and
affect the normal operation of the equipment.
1.7 Maintenance and Replacement
Maintain the equipment with sufficient knowledge of this document and using proper
tools and testing equipment.
If the equipment is faulty, contact your dealer.
The equipment can be powered on only after all faults are rectified. Failing to do so may
escalate faults or damage the equipment.
