I N S T A L L A T I O N M A N U A L H 5 0 0 0 H Y B R I D I N V E R T E R IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS PLEASE READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND CAUTIONARY MARKINGS ON THE UNIT AND THIS MANUAL BEFORE USING THE INVERTER.
I N V E R T E R INTRODUCTION BASIC HYBRID PV STORAGE SYSTEM OVERVIEW The H5000 hybrid inverter provides power to the essential load by utilizing power from PV panels, the utility and batteries. When the PV panels (two string input) generates enough power, the inverter supports the essential load, feeds back to the grid and charges the batteries, all at the same time.
Before installation, inspect the unit make sure nothing inside the package is damaged. You should have received the following items in the package: H5000 hybrid inverter and Installation Manual. The following considerations must be taken into account before selecting where to install.

Class A-rated. To avoid any malfunction, do not connect any PV modules with possibility of leakage current to the inverter. For example, non-grounded PV modules will cause leakage current to the inverter. CAUTION. To reduce the risk of damage due to surge, Darfon recommends surge protection between the modules and the inverter.
