6. Verify that utility power is present at the microinverter by measuring line to line and line to
neutral at the Engage Cable connector.
7. Visually check that the AC branch circuit connections (Engage Cable and AC connections)
are properly seated. Reseat if necessary. Check also for damage, such as rodent damage.
8. Make sure that any upstream AC disconnects, as well as the dedicated circuit breakers for
each AC branch circuit, are functioning properly and are closed.
9. Disconnect and re-connect the DC PV module connectors. The Status LED of each
microinverter will light solid green a few seconds after connection to DC power and then blink
green six times to indicate normal start-up operation about two minutes after connecting to
DC power. The LED subsequently resumes normal operation if the grid is present. See page
27 for normal LED operation.
10. Attach an ammeter clamp to one conductor of the DC cables from the PV module to measure
microinverter current. This will be under one Amp if AC is disconnected.
11. Verify the PV module DC voltage is within the allowable range shown in "Specifications" on
page 35 of this manual.
12. Swap DC leads with a known good, adjacent PV module. If after checking Enlighten
periodically (this may take up to 30 minutes), the problem moves to the adjacent module, this
indicates that the PV module isn't functioning correctly. If it stays in place, the problem is with
the microinverter. Call Enphase Customer Support for help in reading the microinverter data
and for help in obtaining a replacement microinverter, if needed.
13. Check the DC connections between the microinverter and the PV module. The connection
may need to be tightened or reseated. If the connection is worn or damaged, it may need
replacement.
14. Verify with your utility that line frequency is within range.
15. If the problem persists, contact Customer Support at support@enphase.com.
