Ø Before operation, check the inverter according to the
Ø After the inverter is checked, then conduct the following following steps
steps a) Check that the inverter is well xed on the wall.
Make sure that the inverter is fixed on the wall. b) Ensure that all ground wires are well tightened.
c) Ensure that all DC and AC circuit breakers are disconnected.
Ensure that all ground wires are grounded. d) Ensure that all ground wires are well tightened.
Confirm that all DC lines and AC lines are connected. e) The AC output terminal is correctly connected to the mains.
Make sure the CT are connected. f ) Ensure that all photovoltaic panels and inverters are properly
connected. Unused DC connectors should be blocked with caps.
Make sure the battery is well connected.
Turn on the Load switch and EPS(Off-grid) switch.
Ø Start the inverter
Turn on the battery switch.
Long press the “Enter “key for 5 seconds to exit the Off mode. Steps to start the inverter
(The mode is factory defaulted as Off Mode) - Turn on the AC switch between the X3-Hybrid G4 and the power grid.
- (Optional) Remove the locking screw from the DC switch.
- Turn on the DC switch between the PV string and the X3-Hybrid G4 if
there is any.
- Turn on the DC switch at the bottom of the X3-Hybrid G4 .
When the photovoltaic panel generates enough power, the inverter
will start automatically.
