Indicates safety instructions, which if not correctly followed, could result in burns. 1.3. Target audience This manual is intended for anyone who uses Autarco SX-series inverter. Before any further action, the operators must first read all safety regulations and be aware of the potential danger to operate high-voltage devices.
Any unauthorized actions including modification of product functionality of any form will affect the validation of warranty service; Autarco may deny the obligation of warranty service accordingly.
2.3. Internal DC switch Please verify whether your Autarco SX-series inverter is equipped with an internal DC switch. This switch can be found on the bottom of the inverter (see 3.4). If there isn’t an internal DC switch it is important to apply an external DC disconnector in order to completely disconnect the solar PV module strings from the inverter.
