The device is intended for indoor and outdoor applications and may only be used in countries for which it has been approved or for which it has been released by KACO new energy and the grid operator. Nevertheless, improper use may cause lethal hazards for the operator or third parties, or may result in damage to the device and other property.
– Operation in accordance with the appended EU Declaration of Conformity envisages up to 2 bidirectional feed-in inverters per battery. – Approval from KACO new energy is required for a parallel DC circuit with more than 2 bidirectional feed-in inverters.
The potential-free relay contact closes as soon as there is a fault during operation. You use this function, for ex- ample, to signal a fault visually or acoustically.

Some grid connection rules insist that the agreed reactive power be supplied from every operating point of the plant without a reduction in the actual active power. Considering the fact that all KACO TL3 inverters have a semi-circular(PV) full-circular(BI) P-Q operating range, a reduction in the active power is, however, required during operation at maximum active power because an apparent power reserve is not available.
