Do not connect loads that require a stable electricity supply to the outlet for secure
power supply operation
Secure power supply operation must not be used for loads that require a stable electricity
supply. The power available during secure power supply operation depends on the solar
irradiation on the PV system. Therefore, power output can fluctuate considerably depending
on the weather or may not be available at all.
• Do not connect loads to the outlet for secure power supply operation if they are
dependent on a stable electricity supply for reliable operation.
Multifunction relay
The inverter is equipped with a multifunction relay as standard. The multifunction relay is a
multifunctional interface that can be configured for the operating mode used by a particular system.
Arc-Fault Circuit Interrupter (AFCI)
In accordance with the
National Electrical Code
®
, Article 690.11, the inverter has a system for arc
fault detection and interruption.
An electric arc with a power of 300 W or greater must be interrupted by the AFCI in the time
specified by UL 1699B. A detected electric arc causes the inverter to interrupt feed-in operation: In
order to restart feed-in operation, the feed-in operation must be activated manually. If the
installation conditions allow it, you can deactivate the arc-fault circuit interrupter.
