WARNING: Before installing the inverter, read all instructions and caution markings in
this manual and on the inverter as well as on the photovoltaic modules.
WARNING: Electrical installation shall be performed in accordance with all local
electrical codes, the National Electrical Code (NEC), NFPA 70, or Canadian Electrical
Code for Canada (CEC).
WARNING: Connecting the inverter to the electric utility grid must only be completed
after receiving prior approval from the utility company and installation performed
only by qualified personnel/licensed electrician(s).
3.1 Checking For Shipping Damage
The inverter is thoroughly checked and tested rigorously before it is shipped. Even though it is
bolted onto a rugged, oversized pallet for delivery, the inverter may have been damaged during
shipping by poor handling, trucking or transfer station activity.
Please inspect the inverter thoroughly after it is delivered. If any damage is seen, immediately
notify the shipping company to make a claim. If there is any question about potential shipping
damage, contact Solectria Renewables. Photos of the damage will be helpful in documenting
potential shipping damage.
Do not accept the unit if it is visibly damaged or if you note visible damage when signing
shipping company receipt.
Note damage on shipping papers with the truck driver. Report damage immediately to the
shipping company.
Do not remove the unit from pallet/packaging if damage is evident.
If it is determined that the unit must be returned, a RMA number must be obtained from
Solectria Renewables prior to shipping the unit back.
3.2 Inverter Lifting
WARNING: The inverter may tip over if improperly moved, potentially causing
damage to equipment, personal injury or death. Do not tilt the pallet or inverter
while moving it.
