2.1 Proper use
The inverter converts the DC voltage generated by the PV modules into AC voltage and feeds it into the grid.
The inverter is built according to the latest technological standards and safety regulations. Nevertheless, improper
use may cause lethal hazards for the operator or third parties, or may result in damage to the unit and other
property.
Operate the inverter only with a permanent connection to the public power grid.
Any other or additional use of the device is deemed improper. This includes:
• Mobile use.
• Use in rooms where there is a risk of explosion.
• Use in rooms where the humidity is higher than 95%.
• Operation outside of the specifications intended by the manufacturer.
• Standalone operation.
2.2 Protection features
For your safety, the following monitoring and protective functions are integrated into Powador inverters:
• Overvoltage conductors/varistors to protect the power semiconductors from high-energy transients on the grid
and generator side.
• Temperature monitoring of the heat sink.
• EMC filters to protect the inverter from high-frequency grid interference.
• Grid-side grounded varistors to protect the inverter against burst and surge pulses.
• Islanding detection according to the current standards.
2.3 Additional information
