    Figure 11 – Preparing the ground cable (2) 3) Install the crimped OT terminal and flat washer using the M6 screw in the hole located on the inverter heatsink, as shown in the figure; tighten the screw to a torque of 5 Nm using an Allen key. Note: To ensure the anti-corrosion performances of the ground terminals, apply silica gel on them after connecting the ground cable.
  • Page 35 The positive and negative poles of the panels on the inverter must be connected separately. The power cable must be suitable for photovoltaic applications. Note Both MPPT inputs of the inverter should be populated, even if the system only has one string. If the strings are arranged in parallel, it is recommended to use a Y or T connection cable to double the input currents from the PV array and to populate all the MPPT inputs of the inverter, as shown in the figure.

    10.4. Datalogger 10.4.1. Preliminary notes on how to configure the datalogger The AzzurroZCS inverters can be monitored via a datalogger connected to a Wi-Fi network present at the place of installation or via an ethernet cable connected to a modem. The inverters are connected in a daisy chain to the datalogger via a RS485 serial line.
  • Page 114: Electrical Connections And Configuration

    All these devices carry out the same function, i.e. they transmit data from the inverters to a web server to allow remote monitoring of the system either through the “Azzurro Monitoring” app or through the “www.zcsazzurroportal.com” website. All the Azzurro ZCS inverters can be monitored using the datalogger; different models or families of inverters can also be monitored.
