Plus - installation manual | V2.0 April 2017

User instructions

The Solar

+

Plus by default steps down the load on start-up. The green  

status light displays to demonstrate this. On start-up the Solar

+

Plus will  

assess the incoming voltage. If the incoming voltage is below 253V on start up 
and remains below 253V for 5 minutes, the Solar+Plus will disengage and go 
into standby mode. The red status light displays to demonstrate this.

NOTE: On installation of the Solar

+

Plus, it will go into start up mode. 

On start up the System will step down the incoming voltage for  

5 minutes. 

The green status light will be illuminated to demonstrate this, if the 

incoming voltage remains below 253V for the entire 5 minutes the  

Solar

+

Plus will then enter standby mode, the red status light will then 

illuminate. Check to ensure the Solar

+

Plus does enter standby mode.

In the event the Solar

+

Plus detects a supply voltage greater than 253V the 

internal relay will de-energise and disconnect the PV inverter from the  
supply. The relay will remain de-energised until the Solar

+

Plus detects the 

supply voltage has dropped below the threshold voltage and remained there 
for 5 minutes.

The Solar

+

Plus can be visually identified as being energised or  

de-energised by the indicating status light. 

When the Status light shows as red, the Solar

+

Plus is energised and in 

standby mode.

When the status light shows as green, the Solar

+

Plus is de-energising the 

incoming mains supply to the PV inverter.
