General Notes
1.3 Intended 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.
1.4 Safety 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 per-
forming visual inspections and maintenance.
• When taking measurements while the inverter is live:
– Do not touch the electrical connections.
– Remove jewelry from your wrists and fi ngers.
– 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 modifi ed.
• Modifi cations to the surroundings of the inverter must comply with national and local standards.

5.5 Start-up
Before starting the inverter, if components are condensed inside the inverter or have been stored in a highly
humid air for a long time, it has to be dried out enough for more than a day, otherwise it will cause failure. After
that the circuit breakers must be switched ON to start the inverter, which also switches on the control circuits.
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 may 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!

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 may open,

› 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!
5.6.1 Operating states
The Inverter has eight 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 ‘Key Switch On’ com-
mand is operated 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.
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 When the key switch is off, 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.
Table 4: Operating states
Page 30 Operating Instructions Powador XP500/550-OD-TL
Storage/Installation/Start-up
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
