4.2 Wiring Solar connections
This clause describes the connection between the solar panels and the PowerRouter.
Before connecting the PV string connectors to the PV terminals check this list:
• Set DC switch on the PowerRouter to OFF
• Use copper wire (4 mm2) for all PV wiring connections to the PowerRouter; apply only solid or stranded wire. Do not use fine stranded
wire
• Verify that the DC solar current and voltage of your installation does not exceed the maximum rates specified on the type rating label
• Check the polarity of the PV strings
• Use special tool for connecting MC4 connector on the PV wires; the PV MS tool is described in Appendix D
Connect 1 or 2 strings to the PV input terminals using mating MC4 connectors.
The 3kW unit only has 1 PV input.
Do not connect 1 PV-string to both PV-terminals simultaneously (parallel connection).
Do not connect 1 PV-string to both PV-terminals in serial.
4.3 Bypass switch (for the professional models)
This clause describes the usage of a bypass switch.
The PowerRouter professional models use the 'Local Out' to supply your loads. This unique feature enables it to supply backup power in the
event of a grid failure, as a PowerRouter with a 'Local Out' connection can switch to 'island mode' when the grid fails. After a short delay it
resumes operation, enabling its unique 'Local Out' connection to supply a stable 230Vac power signal to the connected loads.
Bypass switches are crucial components with which the PowerRouter supports critical load situations. (The PowerRouter acts as a UPS
system). The bypass switch allows you to switch off the PowerRouter for maintenance, without cutting power to the load. When the switch
is activated, the mains supply is directed away from the PowerRouter and is directly connected to the load. The PowerRouter can then be
serviced and any maintenance work carried out without disturbing the load. Once the PowerRouter is ready to be switched on, the bypass
switch is deactivated and the supply is redirected to the PowerRouter; the load receives the PowerRouter supply again.
The Bypass switch is an optional component and should be obtained and installed separately. (Bypass switch contacts ratings = 230V 40A).
The AC grid input and AC local output circuits are isolated from the enclosure and system grounding.
AC grounding: connect the PowerRouter to the AC ground from the utility via the ground terminal (PE).
PV Grounding: check local regulations. DC Grounding Electrode Conductor: a DC grounding electrode conductor may be required by the
local authorities. The AC local out connection of the PowerRouter is an optional connection, depending on how the PowerRouter will be
used.
4.4 Internet connection
This clause describes the connection of the PowerRouter to the internet.
When the PowerRouter is connected to the internet, the web portal myPowerRouter.com gives detailed system information (e.g.
performance, profit, solar yield) on each PowerRouter unit. The PowerRouter can even be remotely updated with new firmware containing
the latest features, so your system is always up to date.
Connecting the PowerRouter to the internet with standard UTP / RJ45 network cable to your internet router / gateway / switch.
More information about possible connections to the internet is available on www.PowerRouter.com.
The PowerRouter only uses Internet port 80, this is normally a standard setting of the network. It can be tested by connecting a PC to this
connection and trying to surf on the internet. In case of applying a proxy, contact your installer/dealer.

eingeschlossene Feuchtigkeit kann zur Korrosion und Beschädigung der elektronischen Bauteile führen.
• Installieren Sie den PowerRouter an einem Montageort mit einer Umgebungslufttemperatur von weniger als 40 °C; um für die internen
Gerätekomponenten eine sichere Temperatur zu gewährleisten, drosselt der PowerRouter bei Umgebungslufttemperaturen über 40 °C
möglicherweise seine Leistung.
• Der PowerRouter muss an einem Montageort installiert sein, der Kindern nicht zugänglich ist.
• Während des Betriebs gibt der PowerRouter ein leises Vibrationsgeräusch ab. Dieses Geräusch ist normal und hat keinerlei Einfluss auf
die Geräteleistung. Es kann allerdings bei einer Montage an Wänden in Wohnräumen oder selbst schon in der Nähe von Wohnräumen
bzw. bei Montage auf bestimmten Materialien, wie z. B. dünnen Holzpaneelwänden oder Metallblechen, störend sein.
• Der Neigungswinkel der Wand sollte ± 5 nicht übersteigen.°
• Das Gewicht des PowerRouters beträgt 15,5 kg; vergewissern Sie sich, dass die Montagefläche für das Gewicht des PowerRouters
stark genug ausgelegt ist.
• An der Unterseite des PowerRouters befindet sich ein Schild mit den technischen Angaben; der PowerRouter muss so montiert
werden, dass dieses Schild nach der Installation weiterhin sichtbar ist. Das Schild enthält eine Seriennummer, die als Anmeldecode für
die Installationshilfe (Install wizard) und bei der Registrierung unter www.myPowerRouter.com zu Anmelde- und Überwachungszwecken
benötigt wird.
Wenn Sie den PowerRouter in einem Schaltschrank, Gehäuse oder einem anderen relativ kleinen geschlossenen Bereich installieren, müssen
Sie eine ausreichende Abfuhr der vom Gerät erzeugten Wärme sicherstellen. Überprüfen Sie vor dem Bohren von Befestigungslöchern für
den PowerRouter die Wand auf möglicherweise darin verlaufende Versorgungsleitungen aller Art, um der Gefahr eines elektrischen Schlages
oder Verletzungen anderer Art vorzubeugen.

Sie alle Trennvorrichtungen bzw. Schalter ausschalten.
Verdrahtungsschritte:
1. Ziehen Sie die Installations-Kurzanleitung heran, die mit dem PowerRouter ausgeliefert wurde.
2. Schließen Sie die Drähte für die AC-Spannung von Netz und Lastkreis an den PowerRouter an (siehe Abschnitt 4.1).
3. Schließen Sie die Drähte für die DC-Spannung von der PV-Anlage an den PowerRouter an (siehe Abschnitt 4.2).
4.1 Verdrahtung der AC-Anschlüsse
In diesem Abschnitt werden die AC-Anschlüsse des PowerRouters zum AC-Netz und dem optionalen lokalen AC-Ausgang beschrieben.
Verwenden Sie Drähte mit 4 mm² Querschnitt..
Verdrahtungsschritte für die AC -Anschlüsse: (die Schritte 5, 6 und 7 sind optional)
1. Isolieren Sie die Drähte ab und legen Sie sie durch die Öffnung der Kabeldurchführung.
2. Schließen Sie den vom AC-Netz kommenden Erdleiter an die AC-Grid-Erdungsklemme an.
3. Schließen Sie den vom AC-Netz kommenden Außenleiter (L) an die AC-Grid-Klemme L an.
4. Schließen Sie den vom AC-Netz kommenden Neutralleiter (N) an die AC-Grid-Klemme N an.
5. Schließen Sie den vom AC-Lastkreis kommenden Erdleiter an die AC-Local-Out-Erdungsklemme an.
6. Schließen Sie den vom AC-Lastkreis kommenden Außenleiter (L) an die AC-Local-Out-Klemme L an.
7. Schließen Sie den vom AC-Lastkreis kommenden Neutralleiter (N) an die AC-Local-Out-Klemme N an.
8. Ziehen Sie dann die Zugentlastung an.
Beispiel für eine Elektroinstallation in Wohnhäusern.
Überprüfen Sie, ob alle Anschlüsse ordnungsgemäß verdrahtet und mit dem richtigen Anzugsmoment (min. 1,2 Nm, max. 1,5 Nm)
angezogen sind.
