    Verification of proper functioning To check the proper functioning of the inverter, follow these steps: Switch off any source of photovoltaic generation by turning the circuit breaker to the OFF position. Lower the protection switch of the 1PH HYD3000-HYD6000-ZSS inverter. The inverter will remain switched on but will go into error due to a lack of AC power (if the EPS function is enabled, it will feed the priority loads).
  • Page 54 After pulling up the AC switch, the countdown will start according to the country code set (for CEI021-Internal, it will be 300s) to reconnect to the grid. During this period, check that the household loads are only powered by the grid and that there are no other power flows from either the photovoltaic system or the battery.
