18 Chapter IV Device Installation Cabinet and module need to be grounded reliably! DC side wiring 4.6.5 1) Use a multi-meter to measure the voltage of storage battery port, and ensure that the voltage is within input voltage range of storage inverter. 2) Disconnect DC switch at previous level.
Chapter IV Device Installation 19 All wires are connected to the wiring terminals externally from the wiring holes at the bottom of storage inverter. After wiring, fireproofing mud should be used to seal the wiring holes. Wiring of terminal block 4.6.7 Except power cable connection in the whole storage inverter, there are also auxiliary power connection, input and output of some node signals.
20 Chapter V Commissioning and Operation Chapter V Commissioning and Operation Operation state After external wiring of the storage inverter is completed, and wiring is fully checked, close the breaker in AC side. The storage inverter can be switched in different modes under the conditions in Fig.5-1. Sending power-on Stand Power...
Chapter V Commissioning and Operation 21 Automatic startup 5.1.1 In automatic startup, the storage inverter system will automatically inspect and judge startup conditions. If the system function is normal and it meets the system setting conditions, it will start automatically. If the voltage of power grid is too low or high, the frequency is abnormal, DC voltage is too low or high, the storage inverter will make an alarm, shut down automatically and stop providing power outside.
22 Chapter V Commissioning and Operation Shutdown steps 5.2.3 During normal operation of storage inverter, the following steps can be conducted if shutdown is required. 1) On HMI, return to “main wiring diagram”, and click AC/DC module to “shut down”. 2) Normally, main monitoring indicator light flickers in green for about 30s.
