11.3 Checking the PV System for Ground Faults
A ground fault may be present if the inverter beeps, the red LED lights up and the event numbers
3501, 3601 or 3701 are being displayed in the Results menu on the inverter user interface. The
electrical insulation from the PV system to ground is defective or insufficient.
DANGER
Danger to life due to electric shock when touching live system components in
case of a ground fault
If a ground fault occurs, parts of the system may still be live. Touching live parts and cables
results in death or lethal injuries due to electric shock.
Disconnect the product from voltage sources and make sure it cannot be reconnected
before working on the device.
Touch the cables of the PV array on the insulation only.
Do not touch any parts of the substructure or frame of the PV array.
Do not connect PV strings with ground faults to the inverter.
NOTICE
Destruction of the measuring device due to overvoltage
Only use measuring devices with a DC input voltage range of 1000V or higher.
Procedure:
In order to check the PV system for ground faults, perform the following actions in the prescribed
order. The exact procedure is described in the following sections.
Check the PV system for ground faults by measuring the voltage.
If the voltage measurement was not successful, check the PV system via insulation resistance
measurement for ground faults.
Test by Measuring the Voltage
Proceed as follows to check each string in the PV system for ground faults.
Procedure:
1.
DANGER
Danger to life due to high voltages
Disconnect the inverter from all voltage sources (see Section9, page61).
2. Measure the voltages:
Measure the voltage between the positive terminal and the ground potential (PE).
Measure the voltage between the negative terminal and the ground potential (PE).
