6.5 Grounding the inverter

The inverter must be connected to the AC grounding conductor of the power distribution 

grid via the ground terminal (PE) .

WARNING

WARNING

Because  of  the  transformerless  design,  the  DC  positive  pole  and  DC 

negative pole of PV arrays are not permitted to be grounded.

6.6 Active power control with smart meter , CT or ripple control 

signal receiver

Information 

The  position  of  export  limitation  CT  or  Meter  must  between  the 

Inverter & Load and gird.

This  series  inverter  has  integrated  export  limitation  functionality.  To  use  this  function, 

you can connect smart meter or CT. The smart meter model is Eastron SDM230-Modbus. 

The  CT  Model  is  TOP  90-S10/SP4(LEM).The  primary  aperture  is  10mm,output  cable 

length is 5m . The arrow on the CT must  pointing towards the inverter.

Active power control with a Radio Ripple Control Receiver(RRCR).

According  to  the  relevant  provisions  of  IEC  61643-32  "Connecting  to  photovoltaic 

devices  surge  protectors  -  selection  and  use  of  guidelines",  whether  for  household  or 

outdoor  photovoltaic  power  plants,  it  is  necessary  to  ensure  the  implementation  of 

lightning protection measures for photovoltaic systems:

The  lightning  protection  measures  for  photovoltaic  systems  shall  be 

carried out in accordance with the corresponding national standards 

and  IEC  standards.  Otherwise,  photovoltaic  devices  such  as 

components,  inverters  and  power  distribution  facilities  may  be 

damaged by lightning.

In  this  case,  the  company  does  not  carry  out  warranty  and  assumes 

any responsibility.

interval S

1

It is generally recommended to install lightning protection devices (such as lightning 

rods / lightning protection belts and down conductors) to prevent lightning from hitting 

the PV array.
2

Lightning  protection  devices  and  down-conductors  and  related  equipment  in 

photovoltaic  systems  (including  photovoltaic  panels,  inverters,  cables,  power 
distribution equipment) should maintain a safe separation distance S.
Suggested  value  of  S:  According  to  the  general  5  storey  height  (about  15m)  building 

roof,  S  takes  2.5m  enough,  this  distance  can  be  simplified  according  to  the  inverse 
relationship of the floor height.

A. When the safety distance S is satisfied

:

The position 

① ③

 of the figure should be equipped with a lightning protection module. 

In general, it is recommended to install Type II in position 

 and Type I in position 

.

B. When the safety and safety distance S is not met

:

In addition to position 3, Type I lightning protection module should be installed in Figure 

①②④.

3

The  lightning  down  conductor  and  the  equipment  ground  wire  eventually  sink  at  a 

total ground point, but the two cannot share the wire. That is, the equipment grounding 

wire  should  be  pulled  separately,  and  the  wire  diameter  requirement  >6mm

safety interval distance S is satisfied.
