DANGER
Danger to life due to short-circui�ng of the ba�ery
•
Touching a shorted ba�ery connec�on may result in lethal injuries due to electric shock and massive
energy release.
•
Switch off the ba�ery breaker which is located on the lower le� of the inverter.
•
Connect both ends of one ba�ery power cable completely before connec�ng the next power cable
to avoid short-circui�ng of the posi�ve and nega�ve ba�ery power cables.

Electric Shock Hazard
Before doing any electrical connec�on, ensure the PV switch, AC and BAT circuit breaker are switched OFF and
cannot be reac�vated.
4.0 Electrical Connec�ons
4.1 Installing the PE cable
DANGER
(X1)
You must protect each inverter with an
individual AC circuit breaker in order to ensure
that the inverter can be disconnected safely

Warning
The max. allowable grid circuit breaker specifica�on is 40A. At the same �me, the cross sec�on of the copper conductor
for grid connec�on must be 6mm² (in some countries: 8mm²). You should use APP or Web monitoring to do the right
se�ng, otherwise it would increase the danger of the circuit breaker tripping under normal opera�ng condi�ons.
