APsystems microinverter system operating instructions

To operate the APsystems microinverter PV system:

1. Turn ON the AC circuit breaker on each microinverter AC branch circuit.

2. Turn ON the main utility-grid AC circuit breaker. Your system will start producing power

after a five-minute safety delay period.

3. The APsystems Microinverters will start to send performance data over wireless to the

ECU.The time required for all the microinverters in the system to report to the ECU will

vary with the number of microinverters in the system. You can verify proper operation of
the APsystems Microinverters via the ECU. See the ECU Installation and Operation
Manual for more information.
