WARNING:
Risk of electrical shock. The GFDI functions using a fuse to connect or bond
the solar array negative (or the solar array positive, if using a positively
grounded panel array) to earth ground.
AVERTISSEMENT:
Risque d'électrocution. Les fonctions GFDI utilisent un fusible pour connecter
ou lier le négatif du panneau solaire (ou le positif du panneau solaire, si l'on
utilise un panneau mis à la masse du positif) à la prise de terre.
If the ground fault current exceeds 5 A between the grounded array terminal and the
earth ground, the GFDI fuse will open and disconnect the solar panels from their
ground reference, interrupting the ground fault. In this situation, the inverter will
cease operation, display a fault message, and the LED on the inverter interface PCB
will illuminate red. If a GFDI current of 3 A to 5 A exists, the inverter will indicate a
ground fault warning.

Data Monitoring Card Cage

The data monitoring compartment in the upper left section of the inverter houses the
data monitoring and the communications interface PCBs along with the optional AE
premium data monitoring gateway.
