    WARNING 1. Please make sure to turn off the power before starting the installation. 2. Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician. 1. All work on the inverter must be carried out by qualified electricians. 2. The PV panels and inverter must be connected to the ground. 3.
  • Page 3: Operation Modes

    INTRODUCTION The VTAC Hybrid Solar Inverter series hybrid inverters are designed to increase energy independence for homeowners. Energy management is based on time-of-use and demand charge rate structures, significantly reduce the amount of energy purchased from the public grid and optimize self-consumption. Hybrid Inverter PV Array Meter...
  • Page 4 Time of Use The Time of Use mode is designed to reward customers who do their part to reduce demand on the electric grid, particularly during peak usage periods. Use most of your electricity from PV energy and during off-peak time periods, and you could significantly lower your monthly bill.
  • Page 5 Selling First The Selling First mode is suitable for the regions with high feed-in tariff. Energy flow: PV -> Load -> Grid -> Battery Back-Up When the grid fails, the system will automatically switch to Back-Up mode. The back-up loads can be supplied by both PV and battery energy.
