labels on the product and the safety requirements in the manual. Incorrect operation or work
may cause:
• Injury or death to the operator or a third party.
• Damage to the product and other properties.
• Do not operate the product and cables (including but not limited to moving the
product, installing the product, operating the product and cables, powering up
the product, maintaining the product, and working at heights) in harsh weather
conditions such as lightning, rain, snow, and level 6 or stronger wind.
• In case of fire, evacuate from the building or product area and call the fire alarm.
Re-entry into the burning area is strictly prohibited under any circumstances.
• Tighten the screws with the specified torque using tools when fastening the

tual onsite conditions.
• SUNGROW shall not be held liable for any damage caused by violation of gen-
eral safety operation requirements, general safety standards, or any safety in-
struction in this manual.
• When installing, operating, and maintaining the product, comply with local laws
and regulations. The safety precautions in this manual are only supplements
to local laws and regulations.

1.3 Electrical Connection Safety
• Before electrical connections, please make sure that the inverter is not dam-
aged, otherwise it may cause danger!
• Before electrical connections, please make sure that the inverter switch and all
switches connected to the inverter are set to "OFF", otherwise electric shock
may occur!
The PV string will generate lethal high voltage when exposed to sunlight.
• Operators must wear proper personal protective equipment during electrical
connections.
• Must ensure that cables are voltage-free with a measuring instrument before
touching DC cables.
• Respect all safety instructions listed in relevant documents about PV strings.
• The inverter must not be connected to a PV string that requires positive or neg-
ative grounding.
Danger to life due to a high voltage inside the inverter!
• Be sure to use special insulation tools during cable connections.
• Note and observe the warning labels on the product, and perform operations
strictly following the safety instructions.
• Respect all safety instructions listed in this manual and other pertinent
documents.
Damage to the product caused by incorrect wiring is not covered by the warranty.
• Electrical connection must be performed by professionals.
• All cables used in the PV generation system must be firmly attached, properly
insulated, and adequately dimensioned.
User Manual 1 Safety Instructions

• Check the positive and negative polarity of the PV strings, and connect the PV
connectors to corresponding terminals only after ensuring polarity correctness.
• During the installation and operation of the inverter, please ensure that the posi-
tive or negative poles of PV strings do not short-circuit to the ground. Other-
wise, an AC or DC short-circuit may occur, resulting in equipment damage. The
damage caused by this is not covered by the warranty.
Comply with the safety instructions related to PV strings and the regulations re-
lated to the local grid.
1.4 Operation Safety
When routing cables, ensure a distance of at least 30 mm between the cables and
heat-generating components or areas to protect the insulation layer of cables from
aging and damage.
When the product is working:
• Do not touch the product enclosure.
• It is strictly forbidden to plug and unplug any connector on the inverter.
• Do not touch any wiring terminal of the inverter. Otherwise, electric shock may
occur.
• Do not disassemble any parts of the inverter. Otherwise, electric shock may
occur.
• It is strictly forbidden to touch any hot parts of the inverter (such as the heat
sink). Otherwise, it may cause burns.
• Do not connect or remove any PV string or any PV module in a string. Other-
wise, electric shock may occur.
• If the inverter is equipped with a DC switch, do not operate it. Otherwise, it may
cause device damage or personal injury.

1.5 Maintenance Safety
Risk of inverter damage or personal injury due to incorrect service!
• Before maintenance, disconnect the AC circuit breaker on the grid side and
then the DC switch. If a fault that may cause personal injury or device damage
is found before maintenance, disconnect the AC circuit breaker and wait until
the night before operating the DC switch. Otherwise, a fire inside the product or
an explosion may occur, causing personal injuries.
• After the inverter is powered off for 5 minutes, measure the voltage and current
with professional instrument. Only when there is no voltage nor current can op-
erators who wear protective equipment operate and maintain the inverter.
• Even if the inverter is shut down, it may still be hot and cause burns. Wear pro-
tective gloves before operating the inverter after it cools down.
Touching the power grid or the contact points and terminals on the inverter con-
nected to the power grid may lead to electric shock!
• The power grid side may generate voltage. Always use a standard voltmeter to
ensure that there is no voltage before touching.
To prevent misuse or accidents caused by unrelated personnel, post prominent
warning signs or demarcate safety warning areas around the product.
To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not perform any other maintenance opera-
tions beyond those described in this manual. If necessary, contact your distributor
first. If the problem persists, contact SUNGROW. Otherwise, the losses caused is
not covered by the warranty.

• If the paint on the inverter enclosure falls or rusts, repair it in time. Otherwise,
the inverter performance may be affected.
• Do not use cleaning agents to clean the inverter. Otherwise, the inverter may be
damaged, and the loss caused is not covered by the warranty.
• As the inverter contains no parts that can be maintained, never open the enclo-
sure of the inverter or replace any internal components without authorization.
Otherwise, the loss caused is not covered by the warranty.
1.6 Disposal Safety
Please scrap the product in accordance with relevant local regulations and stand-
ards to avoid property losses or casualties.

2Product Description
2.1 System Introduction
The inverter is a transformerless 3-phase PV grid-connected inverter. As an integral compo-
nent in the PV power system, the inverter is designed to convert the direct current power
generated from the PV modules into grid-compatible AC current and to feed the AC current
into the utility grid.
The intended usage of the inverter is illustrated in the following figure.
figure 2-1 Inverter Application in PV Power System
The inverter must not be connected to a PV string that requires positive or negative
grounding.
Do not connect any local load between the inverter and the AC circuit breaker.
When designing the system, ensure that the operating ranges of all devices that
are connected to the inverter meet the requirements of the inverter.
The PV modules in the system must comply with the IEC 61730-1 (2016) class Ⅱ
standard.
The inverter applies only to the scenarios described in this manual.
