The ET series of inverters from Jiangsu GoodWe Power Supply Technology Co., Ltd. (also The ET series, also called hybrid or bidirectional solar inverters, can be applied to solar systems called GoodWe) strictly complies with related safety rules for product design and testing.
1.3 Product Overview Safety warnings Any installation or operations on the inverter must be performed by qualified electricians in compliance with standards, wiring rules and the requirements of local grid authorities or compa- nies (such as AS 4777 and AS/NZS 3000 in Australia). Never insert or remove the AC or DC connections when the inverter is running.

2.3.2 Mounting Step 3 The inverter must not be installed near flammable or explosive materials or near The ground cable shall be connected to the ground plate on the grid side. equipment with strong electromagnetism. The inverter is suitable for mounting on concrete or other non-combustible surfaces only. Step 1 Please use the mounting bracket as a template to drill 4 holes in the correct positions (e.g.
22A) Make sure that the battery switch is off and that the nominal battery voltage meets ET series specifications before • The minimum isolation resistance to ground of the PV string must exceed 19.33kΩ in case of any connecting the battery to the inverter.
2.4.3 On-Grid & Backup Connection Step 2 An external AC breaker is needed for the on-grid connection for isolation from the grid when Place the AC cable through the terminal cover necessary. as shown in the figure. Note: Backup function is optional for only German market, even though the hardware connector is always there.
The inverter will restart itself if overload protection is triggered. The preparation time for restarting will be increasingly long (one hour at most) if an overload recurs. Take the following steps to imme- For details please refer to the technical parameters in the ET series inverter section (Page 29). diately restart the inverter.

OTHER 4.1 Error Messages The error messages shown below will be displayed on the PV Master App or reported by e-mail if an error occurs. ERROR MESSAGE EXPLANATION REASON SOLUTIONS The inverter has detected that the phase angles of L2 and L3 Utility Phase Failure The sequence of the on-grid wire is incorrect The L2 and L3 cables are connected in reverse order.
4.2 Troubleshooting Problems During Operation Checks Before Turning On AC Power ET does not start up with battery only • Battery connections: Confirm that the connections between the ET and battery and that the Solution: polarities (+/-) are not reversed. Refer to figure 4.2-1 Make sure that the battery voltage is greater than 180V.

Pollution degree definition No pollution or only dry, non-conductive pollution occurs. Pollution Degree I The pollution has no influence. Normally only non-conductive pollution occurs. Occasionally, Pollution Degree II however, temporary conductivity caused by condensation is expected. Conductive pollution occurs, or dry, non-conductive pollution Pollution Degree III occurs, which becomes conductive due to condensation, which is an expected condition.
