1.1About this documentation
WARNING
Improper handling of the inverter can be dangerous
››You must read and understand the operating instructions before you can install and use the inverter safely.
1.1.1Other applicable documents
During installation, observe all assembly and installation instructions for components and other parts of the system. These instructions are delivered together with the respective components and other parts of the system. Some of the documents which are required to register your photovoltaic system and have it approved are included with the operating instructions.
1.1.2Retention of documents
These instructions and other documents must be stored near the system and be available whenever they are needed.

General Notes
1.3Intended use
The inverter converts the DC voltage generated by the photovoltaic (PV) modules into AC voltage and feeds this into the power grid. The inverter is built according to the state of the art and recognized safety rules. Nevertheless, improper use may cause lethal hazards for the operator or third parties, or may result in damage to the unit and other property. The inverter may be operated only with a permanent connection to the public power grid.
Any other or additional use is not considered the intended use. Examples of unintended use include:
•Mobile use
•Use in rooms where there is a risk of explosion
•Use in rooms where the humidity is higher than 95%
1.4Safety instructions
DANGER
Lethal voltages are still present in the terminals and lines of the inverter even after the inverter has been switched off and disconnected!
Coming into contact with the lines and terminals in the inverter will cause serious injury or death.
Only authorised electricians who are approved by the supply grid operator are allowed to open, install and maintain the inverter.
››Keep all doors and covers closed when the unit is in operation.
››Do not touch the lines and terminals when switching the unit on and off!
The electrician is responsible for observing all existing standards and regulations.
•Above all, be sure to observe standard IEC 60364-7-712:2002, “Requirements for Special Installations or Locations – Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Power Supply Systems”.
•Ensure operational safety by providing for proper earthing, conductor dimensioning and appropriate protection against short circuiting.
•Observe the safety instructions located on the inner sides of the doors.
•Switch off all voltage sources and secure them against being inadvertently switched back on before performing visual inspections and maintenance.
•When taking measurements while the inverter is live:
–– Do not touch the electrical connections.
–– Remove jewelry from your wrists and fingers.
–– Make sure that the testing equipment is in good and safe operating condition.
•Stand on an insulated surface when working on the inverter.
•Generally, the inverter may not be modified.
•Modifications to the surroundings of the inverter must comply with national and local standards.

5.1Storage
When inverters are in storage, the following conditions are required. If not, this may cause failures. The company will not be responsible for the problems if following condition is not observed.
•The unit should be stored indoor in its original packaging when it’s being stored more than 6 months. If its original packaging is removed, it should be stored indoor in a cool, dry place.
•When the unit is stored outdoor, please keep the remained original packaging and do not leave the unit outside more than 3 days.
•Storage temperature: -20°C ~ +70°C
•Relative humidity: 0% ~ 95% (Non-condensing)
•When inverter is stored under high humidity condition for long term period, it has to be dried out sufficiently more than 1 day before connecting to the power.
CAUTION
Inverter Storage Caution
Inverters need to be sotred at the correct temperature and correct humidity. If not, this may cause failures.
5.2Transporting the unit to the installation location
Once it has arrived at the installation location, the inverter may be transported using the designated eyebolts only. These are located on the top of the inverter housing.
CAUTION
Impact hazard, risk of breakage to the inverter
The centre of gravity is located in the upper part of the inverter. ›› Transport the inverter in an upright position.
Transporting the inverter
"" Transport the inverter in an upright position.
"" Attach a rope (1) to the two eyebolts on the left.
"" Attach a second rope (2) to the eyebolts on the right.
"" Attach both ropes to a hook, making sure that the ropes do not cross each other.
"" Position the hook at the middle of the unit.

Coming into contact with the lines and terminals in the inverter will cause serious injury or death.

5.6.1Operating states
The Inverter has seven operating states. The explanations about each state are below.
Disconnected (default) |
Before operation has commenced the inverter is in the disconnected state. In |
|
this state, the inverter is totally isolated from the PV array and the utility grid. |
|
|
Connecting to the PV array |
When the inverter is in the “Disconnected” state, the ‘Inverter On’ button on |
|
the GUI is selected and the PV voltage is kept above 400V for 5 seconds, the |
|
system turns on the PV Array side contactor (PV_MC). |
|
|
Connecting to Grid |
When the inverter is in the “Connecting to PV Array” state and the PV volt- |
|
age is kept above the value of “MPPT V Start” parameter during the time set |
|
by “MPPT T start” parameter, the contactor on the grid side is turned on. The |
|
inverter keeps this state for 8 seconds. |
|
|
Initializing MPP |
The inverter calculates the MPPT start voltage which is product of measure- |
|
ment of PV voltage and the parameter “MPP Factor”. After 5 seconds, the |
|
inverter system enters into the “MPP start” state. |
|
|
Table 3: Operating states |
|
Page 28 |
Operating Instructions Powador XP500/550-HV-TL |
Storage/Installation/Start-up
MPP start |
In this state, the inverter controls the PV voltage. Reference of the PV voltage |
|
is determined by MPPT start voltage which is calculated at “Initializing MPP” |
|
state. |
|
|
MPPT |
If the PV voltage approximates the MPP start voltage (value of “MPPT V |
|
Start” parameter), the MPPT will start. The inverter follows the MPP target |
|
value automatically, which is varied by irradiance values. If the MPP target |
|
value is out of the allowable MPPT range ([MPP start voltage - MPP Range |
|
lower] ~ [MPP start voltage + MPP range upper]), the system will return to the |
|
“Initializing MPP” state and will recalculate the MPPT start voltage. |
|
|
System stop (Disconnected) |
When the “OFF” button in the GUI is selected, the PV Array side contactor |
|
and the Grid side contactor are turned off and the system stops. If the output |
|
power of inverter is kept below value of “MPPT P stop” parameter during |
|
time of “MPPT T stop” parameter, connection to the grid is terminated. |
|
|
Fault |
If a fault occurs during operation, the system stops. The system resets the |
|
fault and tries to remove the fault. In the case that system removes a fault |
|
successfully, system restarts all by itself. The system tries to remove the fault |
|
at intervals of “MPPT Start” parameter since the last try until trial count |
|
reaches to the number set in an “Auto Fault Reset Count” parameter. After |
|
the number reaches to the “Auto Fault Reset Count” parameter, the system |
|
will log an error and the system will not try to restart. |
