Important Notes 1.1 Product Range This manual describes the assembly, installation, commissioning, maintenance and troubleshooting of the following models of Microinverter: · GT400TL · GT600TL · GT800TL *Note: “400” means 400W, “600” means 600 W, “800” means 800 W. 1.2 Target Group This manual is only for qualified technicians.
2 . About Safety 2.1 Important Safety Instruction The GT400TL/GT600TL/GT800TL microinverter is designed and tested according to international safety requirements. However, certain safety precautions must be taken when installing and operating this inverter. The installer must read and follow all instructions, cautions and warnings in this installation manual.
2.2 Explanation of Symbols Symbol Usage Treatment To comply with European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electron- ic Equipment and its implementation as national law, electrical equipment that has reached the end of its life must be collected separately and returned to an approved recycling facility.
3 . About Product 3.1 About PV Inverter System A typical grid-tied PV inverter system includes PV modules, PV inverter, meter and power grid, as shown below. PV inverter converts the DC power generated by PV modules into AC power that meets the require- ments of the power grid.
3.3 About 2 - in- 1 Unit Microinverters can be divided into 1-in-1, 2-in-1etc., depending on how many PV modules are connected to them. This means that the microinverter can connect to one module and two modules modules respectively, as shown below. This manual is about 2-in-1 microinverter with the output power up to 800 VA.
Installation Preparation 4.1 Position and Space Required Please install the microinverter and all DC connections under the PV module or on the balcony wall to avoid direct sunlight, rain exposure, snow buildup, UV etc. The flat side of the microinverter should be up and facing the PV module or balcony wall.
Safety shoes 4.4 AC Branch Circuit Capacity GT400TL/GT600TL/GT800TL can be used with 12AWG AC Trunk Cable and the AC Trunk Connector. The number of micro-inverters on each 12AWG AC branch shall not exceed the limit as shown below. Maximum Over current...
4.5 Precautions The equipment is installed based on the system design and the location of installation. • The installation must be done with the equipment disconnected from the grid (power disconnect switch open) and with the PV modules shaded or isolated. •...

6 .3 On- site Inspection ( For qualified installer only) Troubleshoot a malfunctioning microinverter according to the following steps. Check if the utility voltage and frequency are within the respective range shown in Technical Data section of this manual. Check the connection to the utility grid. Disconnect the AC and the DC power.
7 . Decommission 7.1 Decommission Disconnect the inverter from DC input and AC output, remove all connection cable from the microinverter, and remove the microinverter from the frame. Please pack the microinverter in the original packaging. If the original packaging is no longer available, you can use a carton box that can hold 5 kg and can be fully closed.
Technical Data Be sure to verify the following before installing Microinverter System. WARNING 1. Verify that the voltage and current specifications of the PV module match those of the microinverter. • The maximum open circuit voltage rating of the PV module must be within the operating voltage range of the microinverter. •...
