HANDLING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Duringinstallation,testingandinspection,adherencetoallthehandlingandsafetyinstructionsis

mandatory.Failure to do so may result in injury or loss of life and damage to the equipment.

Safety Symbols Information

Thefollowingsafetysymbolsareusedinthisdocument.Familiarizeyourselfwiththesymbolsandtheir

meaningbeforeinstallingoroperatingthesystem.

WARNING!

Denotes a hazard. It calls attention to a procedure that, if not correctly performed or adhered to, could

result in injury or loss of life. Do not proceed beyond a warning note until the indicated conditions

are fully understood and met.

CAUTION!

Denotes a hazard. It calls attention to a procedure that, if not correctly performed or adhered to, could

result in damage or destruction of the product. Do not proceed beyond a caution sign until the

indicated conditions are fully understood and met.

NOTE

Denotes additional information about the current subject.

IMPORTANTSAFETYFEATURE

Denotes information about safety issues.



DisposalrequirementsundertheWasteElectricalandElectronicEquipment(WEEE)regulations:

NOTE

Discard this product according to local regulations or send it back to SolarEdge.



IMPORTANTINVERTERSAFETYINSTRUCTIONS

SAVETHESEINSTRUCTIONS

WARNING!

The inverter cover must be opened only after shutting off the inverter ON/OFF switch located at the

bottom of the Primary Unit, above the Connection Unit. This disables the DC voltage inside the inverter

and opens the AC relays. Wait five minutes before opening the cover. Otherwise, there is a risk of

electric shock from energy stored in the capacitors.



WARNING

Before operating the inverter, ensure that the inverter is grounded properly.

WARNING!

Opening the inverter and repairing or testing under power must be performed only by qualified service

personnel familiar with this inverter.

HANDLING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Extended Power Commercial Inverter Installation Guide MAN-01-00402-1.0

WARNING!

Do not touch the PV panels or any rail system connected when the inverter switch is ON, unless

grounded.

WARNING!

SafeDC complies with IEC60947-3 when installing the system with a worst case SafeDC voltage (under

fault conditions) < 120V.

The worst case voltage is defined as: Voc,max+ (String Length-1)*1V,where:

lVoc,max = Maximum Voc (at lowest temperature) of the PV module in the string (for a string with

multiple module models, use the max value)

lString Length = number of power optimizers in the string

CAUTION!

This unit must be operated according to the technical specification datasheet provided with the unit.

CAUTION!

HEAVY OBJECT. To avoid muscle strain or back injury, use proper lifting techniques, and if required - a

lifting aid.

NOTE

Use PV modules rated according to IEC 61730 class A.

NOTE

The symbol appears at grounding points on the SolarEdge equipment. This symbol is also used in

this manual.

NOTE

A SolarEdge inverter may be installed in a site with a generator, however must not operate at the same

time as the generator. Operating an inverter and a generator simultaneously will void the warranty.

SolarEdge requires installing a physical or electronic interlock, which will prevent the generator and

inverter from operating simultaneously. Interlock procurement, installation, maintenance and support

are the responsibility of the installer. Damage to the inverter due to incorrect interlock installation or use

of an interlock that is incompatible with the SolarEdge system will render the SolarEdge warranty

invalid.

NOTE

The following warning symbols appear on the inverter warning label:

Risk of electric shock

Risk of electric shock from energy stored in the capacitor. Do not remove cover

until 5 minutes after disconnecting all sources of supply.

Hot surface – To reduce the risk of burns, do not touch.
