2 Safety
2.1 Intended use
The sonnenProtect 1300 is an emergency power unit designed to supplement the
sonnenBatterie eco 8.2 or eco 9.43. The sonnenProtect provides power to the con-
nected consumer even if a grid outage occurs. It can only be operated together with
the right storage system from sonnen GmbH. Any other use is considered improper
use.
Improper use poses a risk of death or injury to the user or third parties as well as dam-
age to the product and other items of value. The following points must therefore be
observed in order to comply with the intended use of the product:
• Only operate the sonnenProtect together with the right storage system.
• The sonnenProtect must be installed by an authorised electrician.
• The sonnenProtect must only be connected to the storage system as described
here. The output of the sonnenProtect must not be connected to the building
mains.
• Only connect an electrical consumer that does not exceed the nominal power (in
continuous operation) and maximum power (when switched on) of the
sonnenProtect.
• The sonnenProtect must only be used at suitable installation location.
• The transport and storage conditions must be observed.
Failure to comply with the conditions of the warranty and the information spe-
cified in this document invalidates any warranty claims.
2.2 Requirements for the electrician
Improper installation can result in personal injury and/or damage to components. For
this reason, the sonnenProtect must only be installed and commissioned by authorised
electricians. Authorised electricians must meet the following criteria:
• The electrician must be a person with a technical knowledge or sufficient experience
to enable him/her to avoid dangers which electricity may create.
• The company for which the electrician works must be certified by sonnen GmbH.
• The electrician must have successfully complete sonnen GmbH certification train-
ing for the product.
2.3 Operating the sonnenProtect
Incorrect operation can lead to injury to yourself or others and cause damage to prop-
erty.
• The sonnenProtect must only be operated as described in the product documenta-
tion.

2 | Safety
8 / 36 Installation instructions sonnenProtect 1300
• This device can be used by children from the age of eight (8) years old and individu-
als impaired physical, sensory or mental capabilities or individuals with limited know-
ledge and/or experience of working with the device, as long as they are supervised or
have been trained to safely use the device and understand the resulting risks of do-
ing so. Children must not play with the device. Cleaning and user maintenance must
not be carried out by children without supervision.
2.4 Product modifications or changes to the product
environment
• The sonnenProtect must only be used in its original state without any user
modifications and only when in perfect working order.
• Safety devices must never be overridden, blocked or tampered with.
• The interfaces of the sonnenProtect and the storage system must be wired in
accordance with the product documentation.
• The number of plug outputs on the sonnenProtect must not be changed.
• All repairs on the sonnenProtect must be performed by authorised service techni-
cians only.
2.5 Voltage inside the sonnenProtect
5 min
The sonnenProtect contains live electrical parts, which poses a risk of electrical shock.
The storage system inverter also contains capacitors which carry voltage even after the
storage system is switched off. As the sonnenProtect is connected to the inverter of
the storage system, this means that the voltage from the inverter also flows into the
sonnenProtect. Therefore:
Disconnect the sonnenProtect from the power (see Disconnecting the sonnen-
Protect from the power supply [P.32]).
Only then can the sonnenProtect be opened.

tion resistance drops below the set alarm value (RE < RAL) (in
emergency operation).
4 Test key Pressing the test key simulates an insulation fault, thereby
testing the function of the device. The ‘AL’ LED lights up and
the connection to the plug outlet of the sonnenProtect is in-
terrupted for as long as the test key is held.

8 Public grid (electrical mains)
If a
grid outage
occurs, the connection to the public grid is disconnected in the storage
system. The plug outlet (1) is supplied with electrical power from the storage system
until the battery’s minimum charging status is achieved. The insulation monitor is ac-
tivated (‘ON’ LED lights up). This protects against indirect contact.
If an insulation fault occurs (RE < RAL), the insulation monitor terminates the connec-
tion to the plug outlet. The ‘AL’ LED lights up. When the insulation fault no longer ex-
ists, the connection to the plug outlet is automatically reestablished. The ‘AL’ LED
goes out.
The storage system switches back to grid operation with a delay after a grid outage.
This can take a few minutes. During this time the plug outlet is supplied with power in
emergency operation.
3.4 Type plate
The type plate is located on the outer surface of the sonnenProtect. The type plate
can be used to uniquely identify the sonnenProtect. The information on the type plate
is required for the safe use of the system and for service matters.
The following information is specified on the type plate:
• Item designation
