WARNING: 3.1 Front Panel Display
To reduce the risk of fire, over-current protective devices (OCPD) are
required for circuits connected to the Inverter.
The DC OCPD should be installed as local requirement. All photovoltaic
source and output circuit conductors shall have disconnects complying with
the NEC, Section 690, Part II. All single phase inverters areintegrate with DC
switch.
The trip current for AC OCPD for 1-1.5kW models should be 10A, for 2-2.5kW
models should be 15A, for 3-3.6kW should be 20A, for 4-5kW should be 25A.
CAUTION:
Risk of electric shock. Do not remove cover. There is no user serviceable
parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified and accredited service technician.

CAUTION:
The PV array (Solar panels) supplies a DC voltage when it is exposed to light.
