termination, fuses, PE connection, etc.) in accordance 
with  prevailing  regulations.  When  working  with  the 
inverter  powered  on,  adhere  to  all  prevailing  safety 
regulations to minimize risk of accidents.

>  The  Growatt  TL3  series  inverters  may  only  be 
operated  with  PV  generators  (modules  and  cabling) 
with protective insulation. Do not connect any source 
of  energy  other  than  PV  modules  to  the  Growatt  TL3 
series.

>  Systems  with  inverters  typically  require  additional 
control  (e.g.,  switches,  disconnects)  or  protective 
devices (e.g., fusing circuit breakers) depending upon 
the prevailing safety rules.

>  Please  read  this  manual  carefully,  the  manufacturer 
or  supplier  is  not    responsible  for  damage  caused  by 
incorrect  operation,  installation,  wiring,  transport, 
etc.

Make  all  electrical  connections  (e.g.  conductor 


solar energy converted photovoltaically into the public 
grid. The inverter is suitable for mounting indoors and 
outdoors.

> You can use the AC current generated as follows:

The  Growatt  inverter  is  to  be  used  solely  to  feed 

House  grid:

 

Energy  flows  into  the  house  grid.  The 

consumers connected, for example, household devices 
or  lighting,  consume  the  energy.  The  energy  left  over 
is  fed  into  the  public  grid.  When  the  Growatt  TL3 
series  inverters  do  not  generate  any  energy,  e.g.,  at 
night,  the  consumers  which  are  connected  are 
supplied  by  the  public  grid.  The  energy  displayed  on 
the LCD of inverter is for reference only. When energy 
is  fed  into  the  public  grid,  the  energy  meter  spins 
backwards.

Public grid:

 

Energy is fed directly into the public grid. 

The  Growatt  TL3  series  inverters  need  install  a 
separate  energy  meter.  The  energy  produced  is 
compensated  at  a  rate  depending  on  the  electric 
power company.

2.5 Operation Warnings


during operation

> 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 operating.

> Incorrect sizing of the PV plant may result in voltages 
being  present  which  could  destroy  the  inverter.  The 
inverter  display  will  read  the  error  message  “  PV 
Voltage High ”

·

Turn  the  rotary  switch  of  the  DC  Disconnect  to  the 

Off position immediately.

·

Contact installer.

Ensure  all  covers  and  doors  are  closed  and  secure 


start-up,  including  maintenance  must  be  operated  by 
qualified, trained personnel and in compliance with all 
prevailing codes and regulations.

>  Anytime  the  inverter  has  been  disconnected  from 
the  power  network,  use  extreme  caution  as  some 
components  can  retain  charge  sufficient  to  create  a 
shock  hazard;  to  minimize  occurrence  of  such 
conditions,  comply  with  all  corresponding  safety 
symbols  and  markings  present  on  the  unit  and  in  this 
manual.

>  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.

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

·

Do not stay closer than 20 cm to the inverter for any 

length of time.

All  operations  regarding  transport,  installation  and
