7.1.3 Grid Fault

If the fault is on the grid side, a two-digit error code appears 
on the right side of the system display (see figure to the right: 
A). With this error number you can narrow down the type of 
malfunction. The table below describes the type of fault, its 
cause and what you can do to rectify the fault.

Error text:

Grid fault

Cause of fault:

The grid voltage is too high.

Corrective measures:

• Check the grid voltage.
• If the grid voltage lies outside the acceptable range because of local grid conditions, 

ask the grid operator if the voltages can be adjusted at the feed-in point.

No.
