Technical FAQs 4

What causes a solar inverter to fail?

The AC voltage overrange is the most common failure of the solar inverter connected with the PV grid system. This is because the grid voltage is not constant and it will change with the changing of the load and current. At the same time, the output voltage of the inverter will be affected by the grid voltage.

Why does my solar inverter have an AC voltage failure alarm?

Finally, if it is confirmed that the AC wire output terminal voltage is normal but the inverter AC voltage failure alarm still exists, the alarm may be caused by the internal sampling system of the solar inverter and users shall contact the inverter manufacturer to solve the problem.

Why do inverters need to be stopped if grid voltage changes?

This is because the grid voltage is not constant and it will change with the changing of the load and current. At the same time, the output voltage of the inverter will be affected by the grid voltage. When the grid encounters abnormal situation, the inverter power supply shall be stopped to avoid more serious damage on the grid.

What is the rated voltage of a 3 phase inverter?

The rated voltage of the single-phase grid is 230V. when the grid voltage is lower than 195.5V or is higher than 253V, principally the inverter shall be stopped. The rated voltage of the three-phase grid is 400V. When the grid voltage is lower than 340V or is higher than 440V, principally, the inverter shall be stopped. 1.
