6. Commissioning and Troubleshooting

7. Product Specifications

EcoFlow recommends that all commissioning and maintenance of the solar module system be carried out by 
qualified PV technicians!

Test connected modules before connecting them to the system; always test all electrical and electronic components 
of the system before commissioning the system, and always follow the instructions supplied together with each 
part and piece of equipment.
To test the electrical performance of the module, the module is generally exposed to sunlight and must not be 
connected to a load. Pay attention to your personal safety when taking these measurements.

Should abnormal power generation occur, troubleshoot the issue by following the steps below:
•  Check all wiring to ensure that there are no open circuits or poor connections;
•  Check the open circuit voltage of each module;
•  Check the open circuit voltage with the module completely covered with opaque material; then remove the 

opaque material and measure the open circuit voltage at its terminals and compare.
