As the "heart" of photovoltaic power generation, the health of the inverter is closely related to the smooth operation of the photovoltaic power generation system. Inverter alarms not caused by internal devices.
If the alarm occurs accidentally, the power grid may be abnormal temporarily. The inverter automatically recovers after detecting that the power grid becomes normal. If the alarm occurs frequently, check whether the power grid voltage is within the acceptable range. If no, contact the local power operator.
What causes a high temperature alarm?
High temperature alarms are generally caused by a too high ambient temperature, often in combination with a high inverter load. Check if the area the inverter is used in, is well ventilated and perhaps even air-conditioned. High DC ripple The inverter will shut down if it detects a too high DC ripple.
How can solar performance analytics help reduce false alarms?
Operators need to be able to look at the alarms showing up in their systems and compare that with other information they have available. Solar performance analytics software, like Power Factors Drive, automates this process and helps reduce false alarms by validating plant data before it goes into the event engine that triggers the alarms.
Red ALARM LED off. The inverter has been switched to ECO mode and is in "search" state. In other words, the inverter load is lower than the "Wake up power" setting. the inverter sends a search pulse at regular intervals to check if a load has been connected or has been turned on.
What is a solar PV plant alarm?
Alarming is one of the primary functions of the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system at a solar PV plant. An alarm is a notification or message that informs the operator of what's happening at the plant. These events can range from routine maintenance alerts all the way up to plant emergencies.
After the PV array is correctly configured, the inverter alarm disappears. The PV string power cable arcs or is in poor contact. Check that the PV string power cable does not arc and is in good contact. The PV string polarity is reversed. Check whether the PV string is reversely connected to the SUN2000.
