Caution
Necessary safety check must be performed before the
inverter is electrified for trial operation!
The inverter is a device with no transformer, neither the
positive nor the negative pole of the PV assembly DC side
can be earthed, or the inverter will not work normally, or even
be damaged irreversibly.
In TP series PV power generating system, all device shells, assembly supports
and the GND terminal of the inverter must be safety and reliably earthed.
Check if the inverter is firmly installed and if all bolts are reliably tightened. For
an inverter installed on a metal supporter, make sure each bolt is tightened and
support has enough load bearing capacity.
Check if all cables in the system are firmly connected without any missed or
wrong connection, and especially check if all positive and negative poles are
correct. If a DC switch is equipped on the inverter, the DC switch shall be turn
to the “OFF” state.
Make sure the DC input voltage of the inverter is lower than 1000V (with the
temperature decrease of the PV array, the open circuit voltage will be
increased, so a residual voltage at the low temperature must be put into
consideration).
The inverter can be started up as per the following steps after all testing and
checking steps are performed.
Switch on the DC breaker, and turn the DC switch to the “ON” state.
Switch on the AC breaker.
See Part 5 of this manual for “Human-machine interaction” after the inverter is

output scope of the inverter.
3.If the fault above is removed but the
inverter can still not work normally,
please ask for professional service.
The inverter will recover automatically
when the light is sufficient.
The protection state is mostly caused by some external reasons, the inverter
output is not matched with the grid, the grid is power off or the system is not
correctly earthed, and thus the inverter acts to ensure the own safety. The
inverter itself has no defect and can recover from the protection state if the
system is correctly designed and installed.
Sometimes the inverter enters the protection state by the own defect and can
be recovered by resetting or repairing.
The fault state is caused by incorrect design of system, e.g: the DC voltage is
too high, and thus the inverter acts to protect the system safety. The inverter
can be recovered from some faults automatically or by resetting, and some
faults are caused by the own defect of the inverter, and in this case the inverter
cannot be recovered and shall be repaired.
Correctly identifying the fault state of the inverter is helpful for solving the fault,
so please threat as per the following steps:
1) Check if the status displayed on the panel is a protection state or fault state,
and record all error codes.
2) Try the solution listed in Tab.6-1 and 6-2 and meanwhile check as per the
