Chapter 5: Connecting the Inverter

This chapter explains how to connect the inverter to:

AC grid

DC strings of modules with power optimizers

Energy Meter

Battery

Opening the Inverter Cover

 1.  Switch the inverter ON/OFF/P switch to OFF. Wait 5 minutes for the capacitors to 

discharge.

 2.  Disconnect AC to the inverter by turning off the circuit breaker on the distribution 

panel.

 3.  Turn off the battery.

 4.   Loosen all bolts of the inverter cover half a turn.
