2. Introduction
2.1 Preface
Dear users, thank you for using photovoltaic grid-connected inverter
products manufactured by our company which is experienced in
development of photovoltaic grid-connected generating sets. We hope
this product can meet your demands and welcome you to put forward
more suggestions on performance and functions of this product.
2.2 PV Grid-connected Generating System

The photovoltaic grid-connected generating system is composed of
solar cell module, grid-connected inverter, metering devices and power
distribution system (as shown in Figure 1). The solar energy is
converted to DC electric power through solar cell module, which is
further converted to sine-wave current synchronous with grid
frequency and phase via grid-connected inverter. Such electric power is
then fed into power grid. The photovoltaic grid-connected inverter is
the key equipment in solar power system.

4. Overall Introduction
4.1 Circuit Structure
Figure 2 shows main circuit of KSG-30K/(36K-HV)/50K/(60K-HV)/
60K inverter by which the direct current is input via three-phase
full-bridge circuit and transformed into sine-wave current through filter
and output to power grid. To make the photovoltaic array generate in
maximum power, the new type power devices are adopted for this
machine and the advanced MPPT algorithm is used at the DC side.

30KW/36KW
50KW/60KW
Figure 3: Interface of KSG-30K/(36K-HV)/50K/(60K-HV)/60K Inverter
█ Instructions for Interface

﹡1: DC Input: DC input terminal, connected to positive and negative
electrode input of photovoltaic array respectively.
﹡2: Communication Interface RS232: connected with PC via joint

RS232.
﹡3: Communication Interface RS485: wire RS485A/B is connected

with PC via converter RS485/RS232. (When two or more
inverters are in parallel communication, 2P DIP switch beside
RJ45 of the last one should be “ON”. Or else, it may cause
communication interruption. That 2P DIP switch is on, means
connecting a 120Ω communication terminal resistance between
the R/T + and R/T - )
﹡4: AC OUTPUT: AC output, spaced by three phases AC switch and
connected to L1, L2, L3, N and GND of three-phase grid. (3PH，
without “N”)
﹡5: DC switch: can judge the positive and negative electrode input
of photovoltaic array.
﹡6: Dry contact: interface (optional).

5. System Operation
5.1 System Mode
The operation modes of KSG-30K/(36K-HV)/50K/(60K-HV)/60K
grid-connected type inverter include the initialization, waiting,
self-checking, grid-connected operating and error modes.
﹡ Initialization mode: the internal data will be initialized upon

power on of controller.
﹡ Waiting mode: the inverter will be under waiting mode if the

output voltage of PV battery board is low and it has not detected
any fault.
﹡ Self-checking mode: self-checking will be conducted by inverter

each time prior to grid-connected operation. The inspection items
include: inspection on insulation impedance at DC side, self-
checking for leakage current detection function and inspection on
AC output relay.
﹡ Grid-connected operating mode: the direct current of PV battery

board is converted to alternating current by the inverter for grid-
connected operation. The advanced MPPT algorithm is adopted for
controller, making the inverter operating at the maximum power
point of PV arrays.
﹡ Error mode: the inverter will enter error mode when grid voltage/
frequency is abnormal or fault arises during grid-connected
process. At this time, it will stop transformation of electric energy
and cut away from the grid.

5.2 Grid-connected Operation
Prior to grid connection of the inverter, please confirm if the wirings
among input side of inverter, PV arrays, output side and power grid are
all correct. Three kinds of modes are optional for connection
between DC input side of KSG-30K/(36K-HV)/50K/(60K-HV)/60K
grid- connected inverter and PV arrays:
﹡ Independent input mode: three groups of different PV arrays may
be connected to input end of inverter and independent MPPT
controller is available for each group of PV arrays to control grid-
connected operation.
Figure 4: Independent Input Mode
﹡ Parallel input mode: only one group of PV arrays is connected

with input end of the inverter, which is then connected to input side
of inverter via three groups of parallel input terminals.
Figure 5: Parallel Input Mode

﹡ Mixed input mode: two groups of different PV arrays may be
connected to input end of inverter, where one group of PV arrays is
required to lead out two lines of parallel input terminal and
connected to terminal PV1/PV2 at input side of inverter, while the
other group is connected to terminal PV3 at input side of inverter.
Figure 6: Mixed Input Mode

Users are required to set the item “Input Mode” under LCD
menu correctly based on actual conditions of photovoltaic
generating system and confirm that the mode of connection at
input side is consistent with setting (refer to 7.4.1).
If both input and output wirings are correct and the power grid is free of
abnormal conditions, the inverter will enter waiting mode. The grid
connection of inverter will be started fully automatic. After PV voltage
is higher than Vpv , count down for grid connection will be started
automatically for controller and prepare for grid-connected operation
after delayed for Td. Manual setting is available for both Vpv and Td
through LCD panel.
5.3 System Shutdown

If grid-connected power of inverter is smaller than 100W
continuously, the alarm of “zero power” will emerge. After alarming
for one minute, the inverter will cut away from the grid and reenter
waiting mode.
The inverter will cut away from the grid upon discovery of any
abnormal condition during the grid-connected process.
5.4 Error and Alarm
