2.2 General safety instructions
WARNING
Do not connect PV array positive (+) or negative (-) to ground – doing
so could cause serious damage to the inverter.
WARNING
Electrical installations must be done in accordance with local and
national electrical safety standards.
● Use the original box to repackage the inverter, seal with adhesive tape with the desiccant
inside the box.
● Store the inverter in a clean and dry place, free of dust and dirt. The storage temperature
must be between -40~158
°
F and humidity should be between 0 to 100%,
non-condensing.
● Do not stack more than two (2) inverters high on a single pallet. Do not stack more than
2 pallets high.
● Keep the box(es) away from corrosive materials to avoid damage to the inverter enclosure.
● Inspect the packaging regularly. If packing is damaged (wet, pest damages, etc.), repackage
the inverter immediately.
● Store inverters on a flat, hard surface -- not inclined or upside down.
● After 100 days of storage, the inverter and carton must be inspected for physical damage
before installing. If stored for more than 1 year, the inverter needs to be fully examined and
tested by qualified service or electrical personnel before using.
● Restarting after a long period of non-use requires the equipment be inspected and, in some
cases, the removal of oxidation and dust that has settled inside the equipment will be required.

2. Important Safety Instruction
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, branch circuit over-current protective
devices (OCPD) are required for circuits connected to the Inverter.
CAUTION
The PV array (solar panels) supplies a DC voltage when exposed to light.
CAUTION
The inverter's surface temperature can reach up to 75
⁰
C (167
⁰
F). To avoid
risk of burns, do not touch the surface when the inverter is operating.
Inverter must be installed out of the reach of children.
WARNING
The inverter can only accept a PV array as a DC input. Using any other
type of DC source could damage the inverter.
