• All work on the inverter must be carried out by qualified personnel only.
• The appliance is not to be used by children or persons with reduced physical
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or instruction.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
appliance.
During operation, the upper lid of the enclosure and the enclosure body may
become hot.
• Only touch the lower enclosure lid during operation.
• Do not stay closer than 20 cm to the inverter for any length of time.
Grounding the PV generator. Comply with the local requirements for
grounding the PV modules and the PV generator. Samil Power recommends
connecting the generator frame and other electrically conductive surfaces in a
manner which ensures continuous conduction and ground these in order to have
optimal protection of the system and personnel.
