1. Introduction

GoodWe ES series inverters (hybrid) are bidirectional which apply to PV system
with battery to store energy.
Energy produced by the PV system is used to optimize self-consumption; excess
energy is used to charge the batteries, and then fed into the public grid when the
PV energy is adequate,
When PV energy output is insufficient to support connected loads, the system
automatically get energy from the batteries if battery capacity is abundant. If the
battery capacity is insufficient to meet own consumption requirements, load get
electricity from the public grid.
GoodWe ES series inverter is design for both indoor and outdoor use.

qualified personnel, in compliance with local electrical standards,
regulations and the requirements of local power authorities and/or
companies.

z To avoid electric shock, DC input and AC output of the inverter must be

terminated at least 5 minutes before performing any installation or
maintenance.

z The temperature of some parts of the inverter may exceed 60℃ during

operation. To avoid being burnt, do not touch the inverter during operation.
Let it cool before touching it.

z Ensure children are kept away from inverters.
z Do not open the front cover of the inverter. Apart from performing work at

the wiring terminal (as instructed in this manual), touching or changing
components without authorization may cause injury to people, damage to
inverters and annulment of the warranty.

z Static electricity may damage electronic components. Appropriate method

must be adopted to prevent such damage to the inverter; otherwise the
inverter may be damaged and the warranty annulled.

z Ensure the output voltage of the proposed PV array is lower than the

maximum rated input voltage of the inverter; otherwise the inverter may be
damaged and the warranty annulled.

z PV modules should have an IEC61730 classA rating. If the maximum AC

mains operating voltage is higher than the PV array maximum system
voltage, PV modules should have a maximum system voltage rating based
upon the AC mains voltage.

z If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the

protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.

z Completely isolate the inverter should ： Switch off the DC switch,

disconnect the PV terminal, disconnect the battery terminal, and disconnect
the AC terminal.

z Completely isolate the inverter before maintaining. Not to enter other areas

of the inverter when maintaining!

z Prohibit to insert or pull the AC and DC terminals when the inverter is

running

z Electrical Installation & Maintenance shall be conducted by licensed
