5.2 Connecting the PE cable
Precautions
DANGER
- Ensure that the PE cable is properly connected. If it is disconnected or loose, electric shocks may occur.
- Do not connect the neutral wire to the enclosure as a PE cable. Otherwise, electric shocks may occur.
NOTE
- The PE point at the AC output port is used only as a PE equipotential point, and cannot substitute for the PE point on the enclosure.
- After the ground cable is installed, it is recommended that the silica gel or paint be applied to the ground terminal for protection.
Additional Information
The SUN2000 has the grounding detection function. This function detects whether the SUN2000 is grounded properly before its startup, or whether the ground cable is disconnected when the SUN2000 is running. This function works under limited conditions. To ensure the safe operation of the SUN2000, ground the SUN2000 properly according to the connection requirements of the PGND cable. For some power grid types, if the output side of the inverter is connected to an isolation transformer, ensure that the inverter is properly grounded and set isolation settings to Input not grounded, with a transformer to enable the inverter to run properly.
- According to IEC62109, to ensure safe application in case of the ground cable is damaged or disconnected, connect the PE cable properly before the grounding detection function is disabled. Ensure that the PE cable meets at least one of the following requirements.
- The PE cable is a single-core outdoor copper cable with a conductor cross-sectional area of at least 10mm^2 .
- Use cables that have the same diameter as the AC output cable, and ground the PE terminal on the AC connector and the ground screw on the enclosure respectively.
- In some countries and regions, additional ground cables are required for the SUN2000. In this case, use cables that have the same diameter as the AC output cable, and ground the PE terminal on the AC connector and the ground screw on the enclosure respectively.
Procedure
Step 1 Crimp the OT terminal.
NOTICE
- Pay attention not to damage the core wire when stripping a cable.
- The cavity formed after crimping the conductor strip of the OT terminal needs to wrap the core wire completely. The core wire needs to contact the OT terminal closely.
- Wrap the wire crimping area with the heat shrink tubing or the PVC insulation tape. The following figure uses the heat shrink tubing as an example.
- When using the heat gun, protect devices from being scorched.

5.3 Connecting the AC Output Power Cable
Precautions
A three-phase AC switch needs to be installed on the AC side of the SUN2000. To ensure that the SUN2000 can safely disconnect itself from the power grid when an exception occurs, select a proper overcurrent protection device in compliance with local power distribution regulations.

Do not connect loads between the SUN2000 and the AC switch directly connected to it.
The SUN2000 is integrated with a comprehensive residual current monitoring unit. Once detecting that the residual current exceeds the threshold, the SUN2000 immediately disconnects itself from the power grid.
NOTICE
- If the external AC switch can perform earth leakage protection, the rated leakage action current should be greater than or equal to 100 mA.
- If multiple SUN2000s connect to the general residual current device (RCD) through their respective external AC switches, the rated leakage action current of the general RCD should be greater than or equal to the number of SUN2000s multiplied by 100 mA.
- A knife switch cannot be used as an AC switch.
- The hex key is delivered with the inverter and bound to the hanging kit at the bottom of the inverter.
Figure 5-4 Hex key

Procedure
Step 1 Connect the AC output power cable to the AC connector.
Figure 5-5 Stripping requirements

NOTICE
- Ensure that the cable jacket is inside the connector.
- Ensure that the exposed core wire is totally inserted into the cable hole.
- Ensure that AC terminations provide firm and solid electrical connections. Failing to do so may cause SUN2000 malfunction and damage to its AC connectors.
- Ensure that the cable is not twisted.

Disconnection
Disconnection can be performed in reverse order.
5.4 Connecting the DC input power cable
Precautions
DANGER
- Before connecting the DC input power cable, ensure that the DC voltage is within the safe range (lower than 60 V DC), and that the DC SWITCH is set to the OFF position. Failure to do so could generate high voltage, which may cause electric shocks.
- When the SUN2000 is operating, it is not allowed to operate the DC input power cable, such as connecting or disconnecting a PV string or a PV module in a PV string. Failing to do so may cause electric shocks.
- If no PV string is connected to a DC input terminal of the SUN2000, do not remove the watertight cap from the terminal. Otherwise, the IP rating of the SUN2000 will be affected.
WARNING
Ensure that the following conditions are met. Otherwise, the SUN2000 may be damaged, or even a fire could happen.
- PV modules connected in series in each PV string are of the same specifications.
- The open-circuit voltage of each PV string is always lower than or equal to 1080 V DC.
- The maximum short-circuit current of each PV string must be lower than or equal to 15 A.
- The DC input power cable is correctly connected. The positive and negative terminals of a PV module are connected to corresponding positive and negative DC input terminals of the SUN2000.
- If the DC input power cable is reversely connected, do not operate the DC switch and positive and negative connectors. Wait until the solar irradiance declines at night and the PV string current reduces to below 0.5 A, and then turn off the DC switch. Remove the positive and negative connectors to correct the polarity.
NOTICE
- Because the output of the PV string connected to the SUN2000 cannot be grounded, ensure that the PV module output is insulated to ground.
- The PV strings connecting to the same MPPT circuit should contain PV modules of the same model and quantity.
- During the installation of PV strings and the SUN2000, the positive or negative terminals of PV strings may be short-circuited to ground if power cables are not properly installed or routed. An AC or DC short circuit may occur and damage the device when the SUN2000 is operating. The caused device damage is not covered under any warranty.
Terminal Description
Figure 5-12 Terminals

(1) Terminals of DC input 1
(2) Terminals of DC input 2
(3) Terminals of DC input 3
(4) Terminals of DC input 4

NOTE
It is recommended that the number of PV modules connected to PV1 and PV2 be the same, and that the number of PV modules connected to PV3 and PV4 be the same.
Procedure
Step 1 Connect the DC input power cable.

WARNING
Before inserting the positive and negative connectors into the positive and negative DC input terminals of the SUN2000, check that the DC SWITCH is OFF.
CAUTION
Use the Amphenol Helios H4 PV connectors supplied with the SUN2000. If the PV connectors are lost or damaged, purchase the connectors of the same model. The device damage caused by incompatible PV connectors is not covered under any warranty.
NOTICE
- Cables with high rigidity, such as armored cables, are not recommended as DC input power cables, because poor contact may be caused by the bending of the cables.
- Before assembling DC connectors, label the cable polarities correctly to ensure correct cable connections.
- After crimping the positive and negative metal contacts, pull the DC input power cables back to ensure that they are connected securely.
- Insert the crimped metal contacts of the positive and negative power cables into the appropriate positive and negative connectors. Then pull back the DC input power cables to ensure that they are connected securely.
- Crimp the metal stamping forming contacts using crimping tool H4TC0003 (Amphenol, recommended), H4TC0002 (Amphenol), PV-CZM-22100 (Staubli), or PV-CZM-19100 (Staubli). When choosing PV-CZM-22100 or PV-CZM-19100, do not use the locator. Otherwise metal contacts would be damaged.
Figure 5-13 Crimping tool (H4TC0003)

(1) Locator
NOTE
- The DC voltage measurement range of the multimeter must be at least 1100 V.
- If the voltage is a negative value, the DC input polarity is incorrect and needs correction.
- If the voltage is greater than 1080 V, too many PV modules configured in the same string. Remove some PV modules.
Figure 5-14 Connecting the DC input power cable

IS10I30003
NOTICE
If the DC input power cable is reversely connected and the DC SWITCH is set to the ON position, do not operate the DC SWITCH and positive and negative connectors. Otherwise, the device may be damaged. The caused device damage is not covered under any warranty. Wait until the solar irradiance declines and the PV string current drops to below 0.5 A. Then set the two DC SWITCH to the OFF position, remove the positive and negative connectors, and rectify the connection of the DC input power cable.

F IPS Test (for Italy CEI0-21 Grid Code only)
Prerequisites
You have logged in to the app as installer. The initial password is 00000a. Use the initial password upon first power-on and change it immediately after login. To ensure account security, change the password periodically and keep the new password in mind. Not changing the initial password may cause password disclosure. A password left unchanged for a long period of time may be stolen or cracked. If a password is lost, devices cannot be accessed. In these cases, the user is liable for any loss caused to the PV plant.
Context
The Italy CEI0-21 grid code requires an IPS test for the SUN2000. During the IPS test process, the SUN2000 consecutively tests the protection thresholds and time for 10-min overvoltage, level 1 overvoltage, level 1 undervoltage, level 1 overfrequency, and level 1 underfrequency. The SUN2000 shuts down after the IPS test starts, and it restarts after the IPS test is successful.
Procedure
Step 1 On the Home screen, choose Device maintenance > IPS test to access the IPS test screen.
