6.4 Connecting the AC Output Cable

WARNING

Do not connect loads between the inverter and the AC switch directly connected to it.

Select and Install RCD depending on local laws and regulations.Type A RCDs (Residual Current
Monitoring Device) can be connected to the outside of the inverter for protection when the DC
component of the leakage current exceeds the limit value. The following RCDs are for reference:

Inverter model Recommended RCD specifications

GW250K-HT, GW250KN-HT, GW225K-HT, GW225KN-HT 2500mA or higher

An AC circuit breaker should be installed on the AC side to make sure that the inverter can safety
disconnect the grid when an exception happens. Select the appropriate AC circuit breaker in
compliance with local laws and regulations. Recommended AC circuit breakers:

Inverter model AC circuit breaker

GW250K-HT, GW250KN-HT, GW225K-HT, GW225KN-HT 250A

NOTICE

Install one AC circuit breaker for each inverter. Multiple inverters cannot share one AC circuit
breaker.

WARNING

• Pay attention to the silkscreens L1, L2, L3, PE on the AC terminal. Connect the AC cables
to the corresponding terminals. The inverter may be damaged if the cables are connected
inappropriately.
• The PE point in the maintenance compartment is used for connecting to the PE cable
included in the multi-core AC power cable.
• Make sure that the whole cable cores are inserted into the AC terminal holes. No part of
the cable core can be exposed.
• Make sure that the cables are connected securely. Otherwise, the terminal may be too hot
to damage the inverter when the inverter is working.
• The AC terminals can be connected in three-phase four-wire or three-phase five-wire. The
actual wiring method may be different. The figure below takes the three-phase five-wire as
an example.
• The waterproof rubber ring for the AC outlet hole is delivered with the inverter, which is
located in the AC junction box of the inverter. Please select the rubber ring types according
to the actual using cables’ specification.
• Reserve certain length of PE cable. Make ensure that the PE cable is the last one to bear the
stress when the AC output cable is under tension.
• M8 ground OT terminals and M12 AC OT terminals should be prepared by customers.

Step 1 Make the AC output cable.

Step 2 Dismantle the AC cover and take out the rubber ring.
Step 3 Cut the rubber ring to right size.
Step 4 Crimp the AC cable OT terminal
Step 5 Connect the AC output cables and install the cover.

9 Maintenance

9.1 Power Off the Inverter

DANGER

• Power off the inverter before operations and maintenance. Otherwise, the inverter may be
damaged or electric shocks may occur.
• Delayed discharge. Wait until the components are discharged after power off.

Step 1 Issue a command to the inverter for halting the grid via SolarGo APP.
Step 2 Turn off the AC switch between the inverter and the utility grid.
Step 3 Turn off the DC switch of the inverter.

9.2 Removing the Inverter

WARNING

• Make sure that the inverter is powered off.

• Wear proper PPE before any operations.

Step 1 Disconnect all the cables, including DC cables, AC cables, communication cables, the
communication module, and PE cables.
Step 2 Handle or hoist the inverter to take it down from the wall or the bracket.
Step 3 Store the inverter properly. If the inverter needs to be used later, ensure that the storage
conditions meet the requirements.

9.3 Disposing of the Inverter

If the inverter cannot work any more, dispose of it according to the local disposal requirements
for electrical equipment waste. Do not dispose of it as household waste.

 10 Technical Parameters User Manual V1.1-2022-07-20

Overvoltage levels:
Overvoltage I: Devices connected to the circuit which can limit instantaneous overvoltage to a
relatively low level.
Overvoltage II: Energy-consuming devices powered by fixed power distribution equipment,
including appliances, portable tools, and other household and similar equipment. Overvoltage
III is also applicable if there are special requirements for the reliability and applicability of the
equipment.
Overvoltage III: Devices apply to fixed distribution equipment, including switches in the fixed
power distribution equipment and industrial equipment permanently connected to fixed power
distribution equipment. The reliability and applicability of the equipment have to meet special
requirements.
Overvoltage IV: Devices apply to the power distribution equipment, such as measuring
instruments and prepositioned overcurrent protection devices, etc.

Humidity range 5% to 85% 15% to 100% 4% to 100%

Environmental levels:
Outdoor inverter: The ambient temperature range is -25°C - +60°C, suitable for an environment
with pollution of level 3;
Indoor type II inverter: The ambient temperature range is -25°C - +40°C, suitable for an
environment with pollution of level 3;
Indoor type I inverter: The ambient temperature range is 0°C - +40°C, suitable for an
environment with pollution of level 2;

Pollution levels:
Pollution level 1: No pollution or dry and non-conductive pollution only;
Pollution level 2: Usually non-conductive pollution only, but there may be temporary conductive
pollution caused by condensation;
Pollution level 3: Conductive pollution or non-conductive pollution turns to conductive pollution
due to condensation;
Pollution level 4: Persistent conductive pollution, such as pollution caused by conductive dust or
rain and snow.
