PRODUCT OVERVIEW BASIC HYBRID PV STORAGE SYSTEM OVERVIEW The H5001 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, make sure nothing inside the package is damaged. You should have received the following items in the package: H5001 hybrid inverter, backplate, brackets, screws and this installation manual. The following considerations must be taken into account when selecting where to install.

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. CAUTION. To reduce the risk of injury, use the proper cable size for PV module connection.

40A or more. NOTES: The H5001 has L1 and L2 connections for two AC input sources, although it can only accept one source at a time. The H5001 has separate neutral connections for grid input, generator input and output. These are electrically common. The distribution box is both an input conduit box and an AC load center.
