Faults

9.4.1 Procedure
DANGER
Lethal voltages are still present in the terminals and cables of the inverter even after the
inverter has been switched off and disconnected.
Severe injuries or death may occur if the cables and terminals in the inverter are touched.
 When a fault occurs, notify an appropriately authorised and qualifi ed electrician or KACO new
energy GmbH Service.
 The operator can only carry out actions marked with a B.
 In case of power failure, wait for the system to automatically restart.
 Notify your electrician if there is an extended power failure.
9.4.2 Troubleshooting
B = Action of the operator
E = The indicated work may only be carried out by an authorised electrician.
K = The indicated work may only be carried out by a service employee of KACO new energy GmbH.

Explanation/remedy
 Check whether the DC and AC voltages are within the per-
mitted limits (see Technical Data).
 Notify KACO Service.
If the grid separation relay is defective, the inverter will recog-
nise this during the self-test.
 Ensure that there is suffi cient PV generator power.
 If the grid separation relay is defective, have it replaced by
KACO Service.
 Notify KACO Service.
Due to a grid fault (grid impedance too high, over/undervolt-
age, over/underfrequency), the inverter stopped the feed-in
process and disconnected from the grid for safety reasons.
 Change the line parameters within the permitted operat-
ing limits (see the "Start-Up" section).
In cases of high solar radiation, the inverter exceeds its rated
current for a short period, depending on the PV generator.
 Select the capacity of the inverter's pre-fuse to be some-
what higher than the maximum feed-in current (see the
"Installation" section).
 Contact the grid operator if the grid failure continues to
occur.
