User Manual SOLXPOW X4 Series NOTICE ⚫ Reliable grounding is good for resisting surge voltage shock and improving EMI performance. ⚫ Inverters must be well-grounded. ⚫ For a system with only one inverter, just ground the PE cable. ⚫ For a multi-inverter system, all inverters PE wire need to be connected to the same grounding copper bar to ensure equipotential bonding.
⚫ Do not use other brands or other types of terminals other than the terminals in the accessory package. PowMr has the right to refuse all damages caused by the mixed-use of terminals. ⚫ Moisture and dust can damage the inverter, ensure the cable gland is securely tightened during installation.
