Power Limit Setting
Inverter output power can be adjusted via the LCD display or remote grid dispatch from the grid company. The corresponding operating state will display on the LCD screen.
Over-temperature Derating
High ambient temperature, fan broken or poor ventilation will lead to inverter power derating.
When the module temperature exceeds the upper limit, inverter will derate power output until the temperature drops within the permissible range.
When the internal temperature exceeds the upper limit, inverter will derate power output until the temperature drops within the permissible range.
Lower limit of the over-temperature derating: 33% of the nominal powe r.
If the module temperature and internal temperature reach to power derating conditions, inverter will derate the power output according to the lower temperature between the two.
Grid Under-voltage Derating
When grid voltage is low, inverter will derate the output power to make sure the output current is within the permissible range. Once the grid voltage is within Vmin…215V, inverter will derate the output power.
The voltage displayed in the follow figure is the phase voltage.

Medium-voltage Transformers
The following requirements must be observed when installing medium-voltage transformers:
The transformer for the inverter can be a distribution transformer, however it must be designed for the typical cyclical loads of a PV system(load in the day and possibly no load at night).
The transformer can be of the liquid-immersed type or dry type. Shield winding is not necessary.
The line-to-line voltage on the low-voltage side of the transformer must endure the output voltage of inverter. When connecting to the IT grid, the withstanding voltage of the low-voltage winding side of the transformer, the AC cables and the secondary devices (including the relay protection, detection & measuring, and other related auxiliary devices) to the ground should not be lower than 1100V.
The line-to-line voltage on the high-voltage side of medium-voltage transformer should comply with the power grid voltage of installation site.
A transformer with a tap changer on the high-voltage side is recommended in order to remain consistent with the grid voltage.
At an ambient temperature of 25℃, transformers should withstand 110% of total
load rating.
Transformer with a short-circuit impedance less than 6% is recommended.
For thermal rating, the load curve of the transformer and the ambient conditions at the respective installation site must be taken into account.
The inverter apparent power is not permitted to exceed the transformer power. The maximum nominal AC current of all connected inverters must be taken into account. If the number of the grid-connected inverters exceed 40, please contact Sungrow.

The transformer must be protected from overloading and short circuiting.
The transformer is an important part of grid-connected PV generation system. The fault carrying capacity of the transformer should be taken into account at all time s. The fault types include: system short-circuit, grounding fault, voltage drop, and etc...
Ambient temperature, relative humidity, altitude, air quality, and the relevant indexes should be taken into account at all times.
The country-specific power grid frequency should be taken into account at all times.
The country-specific standards and directives should be taken into account at all times.

6.2.2 Grid Connection

AC terminal block is on the bottom of the inverter. AC connection is the 3-phase-4-wire grid connection (L1, L2, L3 and PE).
AC Cable Requirements
Select AC cables according to the following factors:
Grid impedance corresponds to the specifications below to avoid accidental short-circuit or output power derating.
Considering the voltage drop and other conditions, please enlarge the cable dimension. Power loss of the cable should be less than 1% of the nominal power.

The following requirements must be respected. Ignorance of them may void any or all warranty rights.
The inverter internal cable connection cabinet is equipped with positive

Before connecting PV array to inverter, the following electrical parameters must be met.
Short-circuit current limit
Considering the negative voltage temperature coefficient of PV cells, more attention should be paid to the open-circuit voltage of PV strings when the ambient temperature is the lowest. Meanwhile please notice that the max. open-circuit voltage of each PV string decreases with the increase of the altitude.
Tak eYL250P-29bPV cells for example.
Open-circuit voltage temperature coefficient (β)
-0.32%/°C
Under the STC condition, where ambient temperature is 25°C, the open-circuit voltage of PV cells is 37.6V×23=864.8V<1100V.
Supposed that the lowest temperature is -25°C, the open-circuit voltage of PV cells is 23×37.6V×[1+β×(min. ambient temperature- STC temperature)] = 23×37.6V×[1+(-0.32%/°C) ×(-25°C-25°C)]=990V<1100V (meet the operation requirement).
Therefore, PV string should be designed to meet the open-circuit voltage requirement even under the lowest ambient temperature condition.
The curve relationship between the open-circuit voltage threshold and the altitude is shown below.

6.4 Grounding the Inverter

Due to the transformer-less design of the inverter, neither the DC positive pole nor the DC negative pole of the PV string can be grounded.

6.4.1 Grounding System Overview

In this PV system, all non-current carrying metal parts and device enclosure should be grounded (such as the PV array frame and inverter enclosure).
When there is only one inverter in the PV system, ground the PE cable.
When there are multiple inverters in the PV system, they can be multi-point grounded. Connect PE cables of all inverters and the mounting metal frames of PV array to the equipotential cable (according to the on-site situation) to realize equipotential connection.

7 Commissioning

Commissioning is a critical part for a PV system, which can protect the system from fires, injury and electrical shock.

7.1 Inspection before Commissioning

Before starting the inverter, you should check the following items.

Ambient Environment

1. Inverter is accessible for operation, maintenance and service.
2. Check again to confirm that the inverter is firmly installed onto the wall.
3. Well ventilation.
4. Leave nothing on top of the inverter.
5. Inverter and accessories are correctly connected.
6. Cables are routed in safe place or protected against mechanical damage.
7. Specification of AC circuit breaker is reasonable.
8. Terminals not used underneath the inverter are sealed.
9. Warning signs & labels are suitably affixed and durable.

7.2 Commissioning Procedure

If all checking items mentioned above meet the requirements, precede as follows to start up the inverter for the first time.
Step 3 Suppose there are sufficient sunlight and
enough DC power. PV arrays initialize and

8.1 Disconnecting the Inverter

For maintenance work or any service work, inverter must be switched off. During normal operation, switching off is not necessary.
Proceed as follows to disconnect the inverter from DC and AC power sources
Step 1 Disconnect the external AC circuit breaker and prevent it from accidental
reconnecting.
Step 2 Rotate the DC switch to the “OFF” position and then pull off all the PV string
inputs
Please strictly follow the above sequence. Inverter will not work damage if otherwise.
