• Electrical installation
•Repairs
• Modifications
Burn Hazards
Some parts of the enclosure can become hot during operation.
• During operation, touch the inverter on the enclosure lid only.
Inverter Damage
Overvoltage can destroy the inverter.
• If the yellow LED flashes four times and the inverter shows the display message
!PV-Overvoltage! - !DISCONNECT DC!, inform the installer IMMEDIATELY.
