Installation

5.1 Safety instruction

All electrical installations shall be done in accordance with the local and national                        
electrical  codes.  Do  not  remove  the  casing.  Inverter  contains  no  user  serviceable       
parts.  Refer  servicing  to  qualified  service  personnel.  All  wiring  and  electrical       
installation should be conducted by a qualified service personnel.

Carefully  remove  the  unit  from  its  packaging  and  inspect  for  external  damage.  If 
you find any imperfections, please contact your local dealer.

Be sure that the inverters connect to the ground in order to protect property and 
personal safety.

The  inverter  must  only  be  operated  with  PV  generator.  Do  not  connect  any  other 
source to it.

Both  AC  and  DC  voltage  sources  are  terminated  inside  the  PV  Inverter.  Please 
disconnect these circuits before servicing.

This unit is designed to feed power to the public power grid (utility) only. Do not 
connect  this  unit  to  an  AC  source  or  generator.  Connecting  Inverter  to  external 
devices could result in serious damage to your equipment.

When  a  photovoltaic  panel  is  exposed  to  light,  it  generates  a  DC  voltage.  When 
connected  to  this  equipment,  a  photovoltaic  panel  will  charge  the  DC  link 
capacitors. 

Energy  stored  in  this  equipment’s  DC  link  capacitors  presents  a  risk  of  electric 
shock. Even after the unit is disconnected from the grid and photovoltaic panels, 
high voltages may still exist inside the PV-Inverter. Do not remove the casing until 
at least 5 minutes after disconnecting all power sources.

Although  designed  to  meet  all  safety  requirements,  some  parts  and  surfaces  of 
Inverter are still hot during operation. To reduce the risk of injury, do not touch the 
heat  sink  at  the  back  of  the  PV-Inverter  or  nearby  surfaces  while  Inverter  is 

Danger to life due to fire or explosion 

> Despite careful construction, electrical devices can cause fires.

>  Do  not  install  the  inverter  on  easily  flammable  materials  and 
where flammable materials are stored.

Risk of burns due to hot enclosure parts

Mount  the  inverter  in  such  a  way  that  it  cannot  be  touched 
inadvertently.

Possible damage to health as a result of the effects of radiation!

In special cases, there may still be interference for the specified 
application area despite maintaining standardized emission limit 
values  (e.g.  when  sensitive  equipment  is  located  at  the  setup 
location  or  when  the  setup  location  is  near  radio  or  television 
receivers).In  this  case,  the  operator  is  obliged  to  take  proper 
action to rectify the situation.

Never  install  the  inverter  near  the  sensitive  equipment

  (

e.g. 

Radios, telephone, television, etc

)

Do  not  stay  closer  than  20  cm  to  the  inverter  for  any  length  of 
time unless it is absolutely necessary.

Growatt  assumes  no  responsibility  for  compliance  to  EMC 
regulations for the  complete system
