Safety Safety ► 2 Safety 2.1 Appropriate Usage Surge protection devices (SPDs) for PV installation WARNING ! Over-voltage protection with surge arresters should be provided when the PV power system is installed. The grid connected inverter is fitted with SPDs in MAINS side. The X1 Series are PV inverters which can convert the DC current of the PV generator into AC current and feed it into the public grid. Lightning will cause a damage either from a direct strike or from surges due to a nearby strike.
Safety Safety 2.2 Important Safety Instructions DANGER! Danger to life due to high voltages in the inverter! All work must be carried out by qualified electrician. The appliance is not to be used by children or persons with reduced physical sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Safety Safety PE Connection and Leakage Current • The inverter incorporates a certified internal Residual Current Device (RCD) in order to protect against possible electrocution and fire hazard in case of a malfunction in the cables or the inverter. There are two trip thresholds for the RCD as required for certification (IEC 62109-2:2011). The default value for eletrocution protection is 30mA, and for slow rising current is 300mA.
Safety Introduction 2.4 CE Directives This chapter follows the requirements of the European low voltage directives, which contains the safety instructions and conditions of acceptability for the endues system, which you must follow when installing, operating and servicing the unit. If ignored, physical injury or death may follow, or damage may occur to the unit. Read this instructions before you work on the unit.

Danger to life due to high voltages on DC conductors.
Installation Installation Ø Grid Connection X1 series inverter are designed for single phase grid. Voltage range is 220/230/240V, frequency is 50/60Hz. Other technical requests should comply with the requirement of the local public grid. d) Separate the AC plug into three parts as below. - Hold the middle part of the female insert, rotate the back shell to loose it, and datach it from female inset. - Remove the cable nut (with rubber insert) from the back shell.
Installation Installation ØSelection of Fuses and Cables connection NOTE! Main cable(AC line cable)shall be short circuit protected and thermal overload protected. Always fit the input cable with fuse. Normal gG(US:CC or T)fuses will protect the input cable in short circuit situation. They will also prevent damage to adjoining equipment. Dimension the fuses according to local safety regulations, appropriate input voltage and the related current of the solar inverter.
Installation Installation Ø CT Connection: RS 485/Meter/CT/DRM a. RS 485 RS 485 is one standard communication interface which can transmit the real data from inverter to PC or other monitoring equipments. The current sensor measures the current on the phase wire that runs between the inverter and the grid. CT connection diagram X1 b. Meter/CT(optional) Electrical grid Note! It is necessary to connect meter to inverter otherwise inverter will shutdown with a “Meter fault” alert.
Installation Installation CT Connection Steps: Ø RS 485 Connection Steps: NOTE! • • • • • Do not place the CT on the N Wire or the earth wire. Do not place the CT on the N and L wire simultaneously. Do not place the CT with the arrow pointing to the inverter side. Do not place the CT on the non-insulated wires. Do not use the wire over 25m. 1) Firstly unscrew all screws from the 485 port.(PH1 cross screwdriver . torque:0.8±0.1Nm) 2) Prepare a communication cable and trip the insulation from it.

This section will help you narrow down the source of any problems you may encounter. Please read the following troubleshooting steps.
Troubleshooting Troubleshooting 7.2 Routine Maintenance Inverters do not need any maintenance or correction in most condition,To ensure that the X1-Boost can operate properly for a long term, you are advised to perform routine maintenance on it. Before cleaning the system, connecting cables, and maintaining the grounding reliability, power off the system. ● The cooling fins on the rear of house are coverd by dirts. Clean the cooling fins with a soft dry cloth or brush if necessary.
Decommissioning 8 Decommissioning 8.1 Dismantling the Inverter Disconnect the inverter from DC Input and AC output. Wait for 5 minutes for de-energizing. Disconnect communication and optional connection wirings. Remove the inverter from the bracket. Remove the bracket if necessary. WARNING! Before dismantling the inverter, please be sure to disconnect the DC switch, and then unplug the PV and AC cables, otherwise it will lead to an electric shock hazard. 8.
