Note [1]: The value is valid only if the conductors of the PE cable and AC power cable use the
same material. If the materials are different, ensure that the conductor cross-sectional area of the
PE cable produces a conductance equivalent to that of the area S/2. The specifications of the PE
cable are subject to this table or calculated according to IEC 60364-5-54.
Note [2]: You are advised to use a soft cable to prevent poor terminal contact due to the bending
stress of the cable.
Note [3]: For some models, the outer diameter of a single-core cable ranges from 14 mm to 36
mm based on the label in the maintenance compartment.
Installing the PE Cable
4.2
•
It is recommended that the PE cable
be connected to a nearby PE point.
Connect the PE points of all
SUN2000s in the same PV array to
ensure equipotential connections to
PE cables.
•
To enhance the corrosion resistance
of a ground terminal, you are advised
to apply silica gel or paint on it after
connecting the PE cable.
