DANGER
– Danger due to lethal voltages.
– Lethal voltages are present within the unit
and on the power supply lines. Therefore, only
authorized electricians may install and open
the unit.
– Even when the unit is disconnected, high con-
tact voltages may still be present within the
unit.
Accident prevention regulations
The inverter must be installed by an authorized electrician who is
responsible for observing existing standards and regulations.
The proper and safe operation of this unit requires proper transporta-
tion, storage, assembly and installation, as well as careful operation
and maintenance.
The inverter may only be operated by persons who have read and

!
CAUTION
Risk of damage due to improper modifications.
Never modify or manipulate the inverter or other compo-
nents of the installation.
Transportation
The inverter is subjected to extensive testing and inspections in our
test field. This is how we ensure the high quality of our products.
Our inverters leave our factory in proper electrical and mechanical
condition. Special packaging ensures safe and careful transportation.
However, transport damage may still occur. The shipping company is
responsible in such cases.
Thoroughly inspect the inverter upon delivery. Immediately notify
the responsible shipping company if you discover any damage to the
packaging which indicates that the inverter may have been damaged
or if you discover any visible damage to the inverter.
If necessary, your solar installer or KACO new energy GmbH will assist
you. Damage reports must be received by the shipping company in
writing within six days of receipt of the goods.
When transporting the inverter, the original or equivalent packaging
is to be used, as this ensures safe transport.
NOTE
FCC Compliance
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found
to comply with the limits for a Class B digital de-
vice, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable protec-
tion against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the inst-
ructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harm-
ful interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equip-
ment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
– Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
– Increase the separation between the equip-
ment and receiver.
– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a
circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected.
– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
3 Notes on Installation and
Operation
3.1 Intended use
The unit converts the DC voltage generated by the photovoltaic (PV)
modules into AC voltage and feeds this into the utility grid.
blueplanet inverters are built according to all required safety rules.
Nevertheless, improper use may cause lethal hazards for the opera-
tor or third parties, or may result in damage to the units and other
property.
The inverter may only be operated with a permanent connection to
the public power grid.
The inverter is not intended for mobile use.
Any other or additional use is not considered the intended use. The
manufacturer/supplier is not liable for damage caused by such unin-
tended use. Damage caused by such unintended use is at the sole
risk of the operator.
Intended use also includes adherence to the operating and installa-
tion instructions. Your authorized electrician undertakes the regis-
tration with your power supply company and obtains approval for
your photovoltaic installation from the supply grid operator on your
behalf. Some of the documents that you require in order to register
your photovoltaic installation and have it approved are included in
the installation instructions.
