Export Override

NOTE: This feature requires CTs to be properly installed
and calibrated prior to use. For more information on CT
calibration, see the PWRcell Inverter Installation and
Owner's Manual.
NOTE: This feature is NOT intended to serve as a
means of achieving compliance to Utility interconnection
requirements. For information on export limiting settings
related to Utility compliance, see the PWRcell Inverter
Installation and Owner's Manual.
While related to system operation, Export Override is an
inverter setting, not a system mode. When enabled,
Export Override allows the user to restrict inverter export
such that excess power is not sent back to the grid. The
system limits solar power generation to match power
consumption measured by the PWRcell CTs. This feature
is suitable as a simple and easy option for systems
pending permission to operate (PTO) where the Utility
does not specify a requirement for the system to be de-
energized or otherwise disabled pending approval. Using
the Inverter control panel, a user can find this feature on
the "Mod. Settings" sub-menu within the Inverter device
page.

4. See
lifting the bottom to horizontal (C) and pushing
inward (D).
5. Open all PWRcell DC Disconnects (E). Verify DC
voltage reported on LCD screen has dropped to
below 10 VDC.
6. Disconnect AC Grid source from inverter. Wait for
Inverter LCD screen to turn off.
7. Verify all sources of AC and DC power are
disconnected.
Shutdown Mode
NOTE: A loss of grid power will not de-energize REbus
in a PWRcell system with enabled energy storage.
Shutdown button (Item A,

Disabled PWRcell equipment limits output voltages to a
safe level for servicing.
NOTE: The AC section of the inverter will still be
energized unless the building AC disconnect or main

service breaker is shut off.
To enter shutdown, press and hold shutdown button.

DANGER
Electrocution. Initiate a system-wide shutdown and turn the
PWRcell DC Disconnect Switch OFF on all connected
batteries before performing service. Failure to do so will
result in death, serious injury, or equipment and property
damage.
