2. Safety

2.1 Intended Use

CPS Mini Central series inverters are to be used solely to feed solar energy converted photovoltaically into the public grid. CPS Mini Central series inverters are mul-string inverters with mul-MPP trackers, which mean they are able to connect to dierent PV module arrays. The equipment may only be operated in compliance with its intended use.

Grid-ed PV system Overview:

Fig2.1

The inverter may only be operated with a permanent conncon to the public power grid. The inverter is not intended for mobile use. Any other or additional use is not considered as intended use. The manufacturer is not responsible for any damages resulting from unintended use. Damage caused by such unintended use is at the sole risk of the operator.

As drawings shown above, a complete Grid-ed PV system consists of PV modules, PV inverters, public grid and other components. Moreover, PV inverters always act as key components.

PV modules Capacive Discharge Currents:

PV modules with large capacities relave to earth, such as thin-lm PV modules with cells on a metallic substrate, may only be used if their coupling capacity does not exceed 5000nF. During feed-in operaon, a leakage current ows from the cells to earth, the size of which depends on the manner in which the PV modules are installed (e.g. foil on metal roof) and on the weather (rain, snow). This "normal" leakage current may not exceed 300mA due to the fact that the inverter would otherwise automacally disconnect from the electricity grid as a protecve measure.

Information

If PV modules of the PV system require POSITIVE or NEGATIVE grounding, , please contact CyberPower Systems, Inc. for technical support before installaon.
