5.2 Connecting the PE cable

Precautions

● Ensure that the PE cable is properly connected. If it is disconnected or loose, electric shocks may occur.

● Do not connect the neutral wire to the enclosure as a PE cable. Otherwise, electric shocks may occur.

● The PE point at the AC output port is used only as a PE equipotential point, and cannot substitute for the PE point on the enclosure.

● After the ground cable is installed, it is recommended that the silica gel or paint be applied to the ground terminal for protection.

Additional Information

The SUN2000 has the grounding detection function. This function detects whether the SUN2000 is grounded properly before its startup, or whether the ground cable is disconnected when the SUN2000 is running. This function works under limited conditions. To ensure the safe operation of the SUN2000, ground the SUN2000 properly according to the connection requirements of the PGND cable. For some power grid types, if the output side of the inverter is connected to an isolation transformer, ensure that the inverter is properly grounded and set isolation settings to Input not grounded, with a transformer to enable the inverter to run properly.

● According to IEC62109, to ensure safe application in case of the ground cable is damaged or disconnected, connect the PE cable properly before the grounding detection function is disabled. Ensure that the PE cable meets at least one of the following requirements.

– If the PE terminal is not connected to the AC connector, use a single-core

outdoor copper cable with a conductor cross-sectional area of at least 10 mm2 as the PE cable on the chassis.

– Use cables that have the same diameter as the AC output cable, and

ground the PE terminal on the AC connector and the ground screw on the enclosure respectively.

● In some countries and regions, additional ground cables are required for the SUN2000. In this case, use cables that have the same diameter as the AC output cable, and ground the PE terminal on the AC connector and the ground screw on the enclosure respectively.

5.3 Connecting the AC Output Power Cable

Precautions

A three-phase AC switch needs to be installed on the AC side of the SUN2000. To ensure that the SUN2000 can safely disconnect itself from the power grid when an exception occurs, select a proper overcurrent protection device in compliance with local power distribution regulations.

Do not connect loads between the SUN2000 and the AC switch directly connected to it.

The SUN2000 is integrated with a comprehensive residual current monitoring unit. Once detecting that the residual current exceeds the threshold, the SUN2000 immediately disconnects itself from the power grid.

● If the external AC switch can perform earth leakage protection, the rated

leakage action current should be greater than or equal to 300 mA.

● If multiple SUN2000s connect to the general residual current device (RCD)

through their respective external AC switches, the rated leakage action current of the general RCD should be greater than or equal to the number of SUN2000s multiplied by 300 mA.

● A knife switch cannot be used as an AC switch.

● The hex key is delivered with the inverter and bound to the hanging kit at the

bottom of the inverter.

5.4 Connecting the DC input power cable

Precautions

● Before connecting the DC input power cable, ensure that the DC voltage is

within the safe range (lower than 60 V DC), and that the DC SWITCH is set to the OFF position. Failure to do so could generate high voltage, which may cause electric shocks.

● When the SUN2000 is operating, it is not allowed to operate the DC input

power cable, such as connecting or disconnecting a PV string or a PV module in a PV string. Failing to do so may cause electric shocks.

● If no PV string is connected to a DC input terminal of the SUN2000, do not

remove the watertight cap from the terminal. Otherwise, the IP rating of the SUN2000 will be

aected.

Page 49

WARNING

NO TICE

Copy-SUN2000-(8KTL-20KTL)-M2 User Manual 5 Electrical Connections

Ensure that the following conditions are met. Otherwise, the SUN2000 may be damaged, or even a

re could happen.

● PV modules connected in series in each PV string are of the same specications.

● The open-circuit voltage of each PV string is always lower than or equal to

1080 V DC.

● The maximum short-circuit current of each PV string must be lower than or

equal to 15 A.

● The DC input power cable is correctly connected. The positive and negative

terminals of a PV module are connected to corresponding positive and negative DC input terminals of the SUN2000.

● If the DC input power cable is reversely connected, do not operate the DC

switch and positive and negative connectors. Wait until the solar irradiance declines at night and the PV string current reduces to below 0.5 A, and then

o the DC switch. Remove the positive and negative connectors to correct

turn the polarity.

● Because the output of the PV string connected to the SUN2000 cannot be

grounded, ensure that the PV module output is insulated to ground.

● The PV strings connecting to the same MPPT route should contain the same

number and model of PV modules or Smart PV optimizers.

● During the installation of PV strings and the SUN2000, the positive or negative

terminals of PV strings may be short-circuited to ground if power cables are not properly installed or routed. An AC or DC short circuit may occur and damage the device when the SUN2000 is operating. The caused device damage is not covered under any warranty.

Procedure

Before inserting the positive and negative connectors into the positive and negative DC input terminals of the SUN2000, check that the DC SWITCH is OFF.

● Cables with high rigidity, such as armored cables, are not recommended as DC

input power cables, because poor contact may be caused by the bending of the cables.

● Before assembling DC connectors, label the cable polarities correctly to ensure

correct cable connections.

● After crimping the positive and negative metal contacts, pull the DC input

power cables back to ensure that they are connected securely.

● Insert the crimped metal contacts of the positive and negative power cables

into the appropriate positive and negative connectors. Then pull back the DC input power cables to ensure that they are connected securely.

● If the DC input power cable is reversely connected and the DC SWITCH is set to

the ON position, do not operate the DC SWITCH and positive and negative connectors. Otherwise, the device may be damaged. The caused device damage is not covered under any warranty. Wait until the solar irradiance declines and the PV string current drops to below 0.5 A. Then set the two DC SWITCH to the OFF position, remove the positive and negative connectors, and rectify the connection of the DC input power cable.

● The DC voltage measurement range of the multimeter must be at least 1080 V. If the voltage is a negative value, the DC input polarity is incorrect and needs correction. If the voltage is greater than 1080 V, too many PV modules Remove some PV modules.

Power grid exception: The actual grid frequency is higher than the requirement of the local power grid standard.

1. If the alarm occurs accidentally, the power grid may be abnormal temporarily. The inverter automatically recovers after detecting that the power grid becomes normal.

2. If the alarm occurs frequently, check whether the grid frequency is within the acceptable range. If no, contact the local power operator. If yes, log in to the mobile phone app, SmartLogger, or NMS to modify the grid underfrequency protection threshold with the consent of the local power operator.

2039 Output

Overcurrent

Major Cause ID = 1

The grid voltage drops dramatically or the power grid is short-circuited. As a result, the inverter transient output current exceeds the upper threshold, and inverter protection is triggered.

1. The inverter monitors its external working conditions in real time. The inverter automatically recovers after the fault is rectied.

2. If the alarm occurs frequently and aects the power production of the PV plant, check whether the output is short-circuited. If the fault persists, contact your dealer or Huawei technical support.
