5.3 LED-Anzeige

In normal operation, the PV generators produce a voltage 
as soon as there is sufficient daylight or sunlight. When this 
voltage is present at the inverter at a certain level and for a 
corresponding period of time, the inverter begins feeding into 
the grid. The inverter is equipped with an LED display that 
provides information on the operating status in the following 
manner.

 
Non-feed-in operation: 
When the inverter is in non-feed-in operation, the LED indicates 
certain states, which are described below. These can be used for 
troubleshooting in the event of a fault. Each stage begins with 
the indication of the following sequence:
 

Sequence starts: 5 sec. „ON“, 2 sec. „OFF“

  

 
Power stages:
Synchronisation in progress: 
 

LED 1sec. „ON“ 0.75sec. „OFF „0.25sec. 1 cycle 

AC voltage not within tolerance range:  
 

LED 1sec. „ON“ 0.75sec. „OFF „0.25sec., 2 cycles 

DC voltage not within tolerance range:  
 

LED 1sec. „ON“ 0.75sec. „OFF „0.25sec., 3 cycles 

AC and DC voltages not within tolerance range:  
 

LED 1sec. „ON“ 0.75sec. „OFF „0.25sec., 4 cycles

Internal overtemperature:  
 

LED 1sec. „ON“ 0.75sec. „OFF „0.25sec., 5 cycles

Sequence ends: 2 sec. „AUS“

  

Insulation measurement on the PV side:
In feed-in operation, a too low insulation resistance between 
PV and AC side is signalled with a fast flashing. For this purpose, 
the flashing frequency for displaying the feed-in power is 
interrupted every approx. 15s and flashing at a high frequency is 
set for approx. 2s.

5.4 Protection soncepts

The following monitoring and protection concepts are 
integrated in the AEconversion units of the validity range:

• 

Overvoltage arresters / varistors to protect the power 
semiconductors

• 

Temperature monitoring

• 

EMC filters to protect the inverter from high-frequency mains 
interference

• 

Mains-side varistors to earth to protect the inverter from 
overvoltages

• 

BISI (Bidirectional Safety Interface) Mains monitoring for 
personal protection and to avoid islanding according to 
VDE0126-1-1 / VDE AR-N 4105 / IEC 62116

• 

Insulation monitoring of the PV input

5.5 Network and system protection

According to VDE AR-N 4105, the last five fault states of the  
network and system protection and the set tripping values 
and tripping times must be readable. For unit versions without 
communication interface and with integrated fibre optics, the 
data output is via the LED.
For units with communication, the values can also be called up 
via the integrated interface.
