ERROR MESSAGE

EXPLANATION

REASON

SOLUTIONS

Check (use multi-meter) if there is voltage (normally should be close to 0V) between earth & inverter frame. If the is a voltage, it means 
the neutral & ground cable are not connected well on AC side. If it happened only at early morning, dawn or on rainy days with higher 
air humidity, and recover soon, it should be normal.

Check (use multi-meter) if there is high voltage (normally should be lower than 10V) between N & PE cable on AC side. If the voltage 
higher than 10V, it means the Neutral & ground cable are not connected well on AC side or restart inverter.

1. Check (use multi-meter) if AC side has voltage . Make sure grid power is available.
2. Make sure AC cables are connected tightly and right well.
3. If all is well, please try to turn off AC breaker and turn on again after 5 mins.

1. Make sure safety country of the inverter is set right.
2. Check (use multi-meter) if AC voltage (Between L & N) is within a normal range (Also on AC breaker side)
    a. if AC voltage is high, then make sure AC cable complies with that required on user manual and AC cable is not too long
    b. if voltage is low, make sure AC cable is connected well and the jacket of AC cable is not compressed into AC terminal
3. Make sure the grid voltage of your area is stable and within normal range.

1. Make sure safety country of the inverter is set right.
2. If safety country is right, then please check on inverter display if AC frequency (Fac) is within a normal range.
3. If FAC failure only appear a few times and resolved soon, it should be caused by occasional grid frequency unstability.

1. Try to decrease surrounding temperature.
2. Make sure the installation complies with the instruction on inverter user manual.
3. Try to close inverter for 15 mins, then start up again.

1. Use multi meter to check if the resistance between earth & inverter frame is about zero. If it's not, Please make the connection 
between earth & inverter frame well.
2. If the humidity is very high, there maybe Isolation Failure cocur.
3. Check the resistance between BAT to earth, if the resistance is lower than 33.3k, check the system wiring connection.
4.Try to restart the inverter, check if the fault is still happens, if not, means it is just an occasional situation, or contact GoodWe.

Try to restart inverter,check if it still happens.If not,it is just an occasional situation.Otherwise, contact GoodWe immediately.

Decrease Back-Up loads to make sure the total load power is lower than Back-Up nominal output power (please refer to page 12).

Not available of public grid power 
(power lost or on-grid connection fails) 

BAT voltage is too high

Ground leakage current is over-high

The battery voltage is higher than the max BAT input 
voltage of the inverter.

Utility Phase Failure

Utility Loss

VAC Failure

Isolation Failure

Ground Failure

Relay Check Failure

Grid voltage is not within permissible range

Grid Efficiency is not within permissible range

Temperature inside of the inverter is too high

Self checking of relay fails

Internal communication fails

BUS voltage is over-high

Back-up side is over loaded

Inverter detects that AC voltage is beyond the normal 
range required by the safety country

Inverter does not detect the connection of grid

Inverter detects that Grid frequency is beyond the 
normal range required by the safety country

Inverter working environment leads to a high 
temperature condition

Ground insulation impedance of Battery is 
to low

Isolation failure could be caused by multi reasons like Battery 
are not grounded well,DC cable is broken ,battery are aged 
or surrounding humidity is comparatively heavy,etc. 

Neutral & ground cable are not connected well on AC 
side or just occasional failure 

Inverter detects a higher DC component in AC output

Caused by a strong external magnetic field etc.

Caused by a strong external magnetic field etc.

Total Back-Up load power is higher than the nominal 
backup output power 

Ground I failure could be caused by multi reasons 
like neutral cable on AC side is not connected well 
or surrounding humidityis comparative heavy, etc.

DC Injection High

EEPROM R/W Failure
