electric shock.
An optimal earthing connection can withstand resist
surge discharges and improve EMI performance.
Attention Inverters must be properly earthed.
For systems with a single inverter, the PE wire must be
earthed.
For a multi-inverter system, all PE cables from the
inverters must be connected to the same copper
earthing bar to ensure equipotential bonding.
Steps for connecting the terminal to earth:
The external earthing connection terminal is located on the
1.
lower right side of the inverter.
Fasten the earthing connection terminal to the PE cable with
2.
a suitable tool and lock the earthing connection terminal to
the earthing connection hole on the bottom right side of the
inverter, as shown in Fig. 36.
The cross-sectional area of the external earthing cable is

The following must be taken into account when making the
1.
electrical connections to the inverter:
Disconnect the AC switch on the grid side.
a.
The inverter's DC switch must be set to "OFF".
b.
To ensure that the best practices are followed, check that
c.
the photovoltaic panels connected in each string are of
the same model and specifications.
Check that the maximum output voltage of each
d.
photovoltaic string does not exceed the maximum voltage
specified in the technical characteristics table in section
"9. Technical features.".
