operating license.
Risk of inverter damage or personal injury
Do not pull out the PV connectors when the inverter is running.
Wait at least 5 minutes for the internal capacitors to discharge. Ensure
that there is no voltage or current before pulling any connector.
All safety instructions, warning labels, and nameplate on the inverter:
Must be clearly legible.
Should not be removed or covered.
Risk of burns due to hot components!
Do not touch any hot parts (such as heat sink) during operation. Only the
DC switch can safely be touched at any time.
Only qualified personnel can perform the country setting.
• Unauthorized alteration of the country setting may cause a breach of the type-
certificate marking.
By touching the electronic components, you may damage the inverter. For
inverter handling, be sure to:
• avoid any unnecessary touching;
• wear a grounding wristband before touching any connectors.
Danger to life due to high voltages!
Only qualified personnel can open and service the inverter.
Check the user manual before service!
All installations should be performed by qualified personnel. They should have:
•Training in the installation and commissioning of the electrical system, as well
as the dealing with hazards;
•Knowledge of the manual and other related documents;
•Knowledge of the local regulations and directives.

Prior to any electrical connections, keep in mind that the inverter has dual power
supplies. It is mandatory for the qualified personnel to wear personal protective
equipments (PPE) during the electrical work.
Danger to life due to a high voltage inside the inverter!
• The PV string will generate lethal high voltage when exposed to sunlight.
• Before starting electrical connections, disconnect the DC and AC circuit
breakers and prevent them from inadvertent reconnection.
• Ensure that all cables are voltage free before performing cable
connection.
• Any improper operations during cable connection can cause device
damage or personal injury.
• Only qualified personnel can perform cable connection.
• All cables must be undamaged, firmly attached, properly insulated and
adequately dimensioned.
Comply with the safety instructions related to the PV strings and the
regulations related to the utility grid.
• All electrical connections must be in accordance with local and national
standards.
• Only with the permission of the utility grid, the inverter can be connected
to the utility grid.

Since the inverter is a transformerless inverter, neither the negative pole
nor the positive pole of the PV string can be grounded. Otherwise, the
inverter will not operate normally.
Connect the additional grounding terminal to the protective grounding
point before AC cable connection, PV cable connection, and
communication cable connection.
The ground connection of this additional grounding terminal cannot
replace the connection of the PE terminal of the AC cable. Make sure thoes
terminals are both grounded reliably.
All non-current carrying metal parts and device enclosures in the PV power system
should be grounded, for example, brackets of PV modules and inverter enclosure.
When there is only one inverter in the PV system, connect the additional grounding
cable to a nearby grounding point.
When there are multiple inverters in the PV system, connect grounding points of all
inverters and the PV array frames to the equipotential cable (according to the onsite
conditions) to implement an equipotential connection.
