1.1 OPERATION MODES INTRODUCTION
The BP series hybrid converters of Jiangsu GoodWe Power Supply Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter
called as GoodWe) strictly comply with related safety rules for product design and testing.
Please read and follow all the instructions and cautions on the hybrid converter or user manual during
installation, operation or maintenance, as any improper operation might cause personal or property
damage.
GoodWe BP series Hybrid converter is used to upgrade a single-phase grid-tied solar system into
energy-storage system with battery, thus to improve self-consumption greatly.
During daytime, PV panels generation can go to grid-tied inverter to support local loads, exceed
power will charge battery via BP. During night time, battery discharge to grid-tied inverter via BP to
make the whole system work without PV power.
The Hybrid converter has the following main operation modes based on different conditions:
1.2 SAFETY & WARNING
• SYMBOLS EXPLANATION
INTRODUCTION01
Caution!
Failing to observe a warning indicated in this manual may result in injury.
Danger of high voltage and electric shock!
Components of the product can be recycled.
This side up! The package must always be transported, handled and stored in such a
way that the arrows always point upwards.
Danger of hot surface!
No more than six (6) identical packages being stacked on each other.
Product should not be disposed as household waste.
The package/product should be handled carefully and never be tipped over or slung.
Refer to the operating instructions.
Keep dry! The package/product must be protected from excessive humidity and must
be stored under cover.
Inverter will be touchable or operable after minimum 5 minutes of being turned off or
totally disconnected, in case of any electrical shock or injury.
CE Mark
Note: the introduction describes a general behavior of BP system.
The operation mode can be adjusted on GoodWe PV Master APP
depends on the system layout. Below are the general operation
modes for BP system
02
INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION
01
PV power support local loads via grid-tied inverter first,
then charge battery via BP, exceed power could be
exported to public grid
Mode Ⅰ
Battery can discharge to support the whole system
together with grid when PV power is low or without PV
power
Mode Ⅱ
Grid could support to power on BP, decrease battery
power consumption
Mode Ⅲ
When grid shut down or grid-tied inverter fails, PV
power could be used to charge battery
Mode Ⅳ
INTRODUCTION
• SAFETY WARNING
Any installation and operation on hybrid converter must be performed by qualified electricians, in
compliance with standards, wiring rules or requirements of local grid authorities or companies (like AS
4777 andAS/NZS 3000 in Australia).
Before any wiring connection or electrical operation on hybrid converter, all DC and AC
power must be disconnected from hybrid converter for at least 5 minutes to make sure it is
totally isolated to avoid electric shock.
The temperature of hybrid converter surface might exceed 60℃ during working, so please
make sure it is cooled down before touching it, and make sure the hybrid converter is
untouchable for children.
Appropriate methods must be adopted to protect hybrid converter from static damage. Any
damage caused by static is not warranted by GoodWe.
Appropriate methods must be adopted to protect inverter from static damage. Any damage
caused by static is not warranted by GoodWe.
PV modules used on the hybrid converter must have an IEC61730 class A rating, and the total
open-circuit voltage of PV string/array is lower than the maximum rated DC input voltage of the
hybrid converter. Any damage caused by PV over-voltage is beyond warranty
Usage and operation of the hybrid converter must follow instructions in this user manual,
otherwise the protection design might be useless and warranty for the hybrid converter will be
invalid.
PV negative (PV-) on hybrid converter side is not grounded as default design.
