Prerequisites



Before connecting DC input power cables, ensure that the DC voltage is within the safe range (lower than 60 V DC) and that the two DC switches on the SUN2000 are OFF. Otherwise, the high voltage may result in electric shocks.



When the SUN2000 is grid-tied, it is not allowed to maintain DC input power cables, such as connect or disconnect a string or a module in a string. Otherwise, electric shocks may occur.

Ensure that the following conditions are met. Otherwise, the SUN2000 will be damaged, or even a fire disaster will be caused.



The highest open-circuit voltage of each PV string is always lower than or equal to 1000 V DC.



The positive and negative terminals of a PV module connect to the positive and negative DC input terminals of the SUN2000 respectively.



If the DC input power cable is reversely connected, do not operate the DC switches and positive and negative connectors immediately. Wait until the solar irradiance declines at night and the PV string current reduces to below 0.5 A. Then, turn off the two DC switches, remove the positive and negative connectors, and correct the polarity of the DC input power cable.



Ensure that the PV string is well insulated to the ground. If the SUN2000 is directly connected to the power grid with a neutral wire connected to the PGND cable (for example, a low-voltage power grid or a power grid with a neutral wire grounded), do not ground the positive and negative terminals of PV strings. Otherwise, the SUN2000 may be damaged. The caused equipment damage is beyond the warranty scope.



During the installation of PV strings and SUN2000, the positive or negative terminals of PV strings may be grounded if power cables are not properly installed or routed. In this case, an AC or DC short circuit may occur and damage the SUN2000. The caused equipment damage is beyond the warranty scope.

Context

The PV strings must meet the following requirements if they need to be grounded:



A three-phase isolation transformer is installed on the output side.



One isolation transformer must be installed only for one SUN2000. Do not connect two or more SUN2000s to the same isolation transformer. Otherwise, the SUN2000s may fail to work due to the loop current generated between them.



Set Isolation to Input grounded, with TF on the SUN2000 APP, SmartLogger, or NMS.



DC terminal selection

Figure 5-27 shows the DC terminals at the bottom of the SUN2000. Table 5-3 describes

the requirements for DC terminal selection.

The SUN2000 provides two DC switches, namely, DC SWITCH 1 and DC SWITCH 2. DC SWITCH 1 controls the first to fourth routes of DC input terminals, whereas DC SWITCH 2 controls the fifth to eighth routes of DC input terminals.



After crimping the positive and negative metal terminals, ensure that the cables are crimped tightly such that they cannot be pulled out by a force less than 400 N.



Insert the crimped metal terminals 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.

Figure 5-28 Preparing a connector

Step 2 Ensure that the DC input voltage of each PV string does not exceed 1000 V DC using a

multimeter and check that the polarities of the DC input power cable are correct.



If the voltage is a negative value, the PV string is reversely connected. Correct the polarity.



If the voltage is greater than 1000 V DC, too many PV modules are configured. Remove some PV modules.

Figure 5-33 Communication mode for multiple SUN2000s



The RS485 communication distance between the SUN2000 at the end of the daisy chain and the SmartLogger cannot exceed 1000 meters.



If multiple SUN2000s need to communicate with one another and are connected to a PC over the SmartLogger2000, a maximum of six daisy chains can be configured.



To ensure the system response speed, it is recommended that the number of devices on each daisy chain be less than 30.

PLC Communication

The PLC communication board loads communication signals onto power cables for transmission. For details about how to install the PLC, see the PLC CCO01A User Manual and SmartLogger2000 User Manual.

The built-in PLC module in the SUN2000 does not need to be connected with cables.

Selecting a Communication Mode

The RS485 and PLC communication modes are mutually exclusive.



If the PLC communication mode is selected, do not connect the RS485 communications cable. In addition, you need to set PLC communication to Enable on the SUN2000 APP.



If the RS485 communication mode is selected, do not connect the PLC CCO module to the AC power cable. In addition, you are recommended to set PLC communication to

Disable on the SUN2000 APP.

PLC communication is set to Enable by default.

5.7.2 Selecting a Mode for Connecting RS485 Communications Cables

7.1.4 Upgrading

Context

Upgrade delay is mainly used in the upgrade scenarios where the PV power supply is disconnected at night due to no solar radiation or unstable at dawn or dusk due to poor solar radiation.

After the SUN2000 upgrade starts, if Upgrade delay is set to Enable, the upgrade package is loaded first. After the PV power supply recovers and the activation conditions are met, the SUN2000 automatically activates the upgrade.

Upgrade delay is set to Enable by default, which means that the upgrade can take place at day or night. After enabling Upgrade delay, start the SUN2000 upgrade over the USB, SmartLogger, or NMS. The

SUN2000 upgrade process contains the following two stages:
