Quick installation guide for RPI M50A inverters

Always adhere to the specifi c regulations applicable in your coun-

try or region 

Always adhere to the specifi c regulations defi ned by your grid 

operator 

For the safety of the user and for the security of your installation, 
install required safety and protection devices that are applicable 
for your installation environment (example: automatic circuit 
breaker and/or overcurrent protection equipment)

Use the proper upstream circuit breaker to protect the inverter:

plug

The inverter is not capable of feeding in DC residual currents due 

to its design. They fulfi ll this requirement in accordance with DIN 

VDE 0100-712 

The possibilities of faults were examined by Delta without tak-
ing the integrated RCMU (residual-current monitoring unit) into 
account  When examining these faults in terms of the current 
valid installation standards, no danger in combination with a type 
A upstream residual-current device (RCD) can occur  Therefore 
faults that would otherwise require the use of a type B residual-
current device due to the inverter can be excluded 

The integrated all-pole sensitive RCMU is certifi ed accord-

ing VDE 0126 1-1/A1:2012-02  §6 6 2 for a tripping current of 
300 mA  RCD Type A can be used for this inverter, according to 
the following table  

M50A

Minimum tripping current of the RCD

mA

≥300

NOTE

The value of the tripping current mainly depends 
on the quality of the solar modules, the size of 
the PV array and environmental conditions (e g  
humidity)  The tripping current of the residual 
current device must not be less than the speci-

fi ed minimum tripping current. 

Fuses

 

When you remove the cover from the fuse sec-
tion, protection degree is no longer IP65 

 

Remove the cover only when the inverter is in a 
dry environment 

Damaged fuses must be replaced with fuses of the same size  
You will lose warranty if you use fuses with a higher current 

Important information regarding safety

Read and follow the instructions delivered with the AC plug 

AC plug delivered with the inverter can be used with fl exible cop-

per cable 
When calculating the cross section of the cable, consider: 

 

material used

 

thermal conditions

 

cable length

 

type of installation

 

AC voltage drop

 

power losses in cable

Always follow the system installation requirements defi ned for 

your country!

Grounding the inverter

The inverter must be grounded via the AC connector’s PE con-
ductor  To do this, connect the PE conductor to the designated 
terminal of the AC plug 

Markings on the inverter

In some countries, the following labels have to be applied on the 
front of each micro inverter  Please check applicable national and 
local standards and regulations 

WARNING

Dual Supply

Do  not  work  on  this  equipment  until  it  is  isolated  from 
both mains and on site generation supplies

Isolate on-site Generating Unit(s) at ………………………………………………….
Isolate mains supply at………………………………………………………

Warning – Only persons authorised by the DNO may remove the main cut out fuse

Warning

Two sources of voltage present

- distribution network
- photovoltaic panels

Isolate both sources before 

carrying out any work
