In Case of Fire or Other Emergency
In all cases:
•
If safe to do so,
1. Initiate Rapid Shutdown and allow the DC voltage to drop to a
safe level
2. Power down inverter, and
3. Disconnect wiring sources of AC and DC power
• Contact the fire department or other required emergency response
team.
• Evacuate the area.
In case of fire:
• When safe, use a fire extinguisher. Suitable types are A, B, and C dry
chemical fire extinguishers. Additional extinguishing media include
water, carbon dioxide, or alcohol-resistant foams.
In case of flooding:
• Stay out of water if any part of the system or wiring is submerged.
• If possible, protect the system by finding and stopping the source of
the water, and pumping it away.
• If submerged, the whole system may need to be replaced.
• Let the area dry completely before use.
In case of unusual noise, smell or smoke:
• Ensure nothing is in contact with the system or in the venting area on
top of the Inverter or Battery enclosures.
• Ventilate the room.
