SP600 Series User Manual 2.3.3 Input PV Source Adaptability If the input PV voltage is within the maximum voltage range (<600V) allowed by SP600, then the SP600 will not get damaged. It can communicate and display normally. If SP600 can start up with an input PV voltage higher than the starting voltage of 120V, then it should be able to perform charging normally within its MPPT voltage range (80~525V).
SP600 Series User Manual 2.3.7 PV Array Insulation Resistance Detection SP600 is designed with built-in PV array insulation resistance detection (earth fault detection) function. The insulation resistance value is displayed in polling on the SP600 LCD screen, and is also sent to the inverter via RS485 at the same time. SP600 will automatically perform insulation resistance detection every time auxiliary power supply restarts and stabilizes.
