1. SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
General safety recommendations
•
Only qualified electricians are allowed to install the
inverter.
• Make sure the installation site is not accessible to
children or non-authorized personnel.
• Remove metal accessories such as rings or bracelets
before installation and electrical connection to avoid
electric shock.
Product safety recommendations
• Do not put and install the inverter on or close to
combustible materials.
• Install the inverter far from devices with strong
electromagnetic interference.
• To avoid product damage, ensure the inverter input
voltage does not exceed the maximum input voltage.
• Ensure a stable installation and a reliable electrical
connection, as well as proper grounding of the inverter;
improper connection or no grounding may cause the
inverter to stop functioning.
• To avoid irreparable damage, ensure that the positive
and negative poles of solar modules are not grounded.

Follow these steps to install your AEG inverter:
1- Define the installation hole with aid of the installation
bracket, and use the expansion bolts to fix the installation
brackets to the designed location on the wall.
2-Lift the inverter to suspend it to the installation
brackets and fasten with M8 hex socket cap screws.
3- Fasten the M5 screws and fasten the inverter to the
bracket. Make sure the inverter is fastened firmly to the
bracket.

5 . ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
Follow the next step to carry out the electrical wiring of
your AEG inverter:
1- Before connecting the three-phase AC grid cable to
the inverter, take lightning and short circuit protection
measures in accordance with the local electrical safety
codes.
2- As shown in Figure 6 below, connect and fasten L1, L2,
L3, N (optional) and PE conductors of the three-phase
common grid to the AC terminal, and then connect the
terminal to the inverter´s AC port.
3- Fix and connect the DC output cables of the PV
module with the matching DC connectors, and then
connect the connectors to the inverter´s DC port.
