1. Introduction On grid (Green LED on) The inverter is connected to the grid and energises the grid. The inverter disconnects if: It de- 1 tects abnormal grid conditions (depending on country settings), if an internal event occurs or if no PV power is available (no power is supplied to the grid for 10 minutes). It then goes into connecting mode or off grid mode. Fail Safe (Red LED flashing) If the inverter detects an error in its circuits during the self-test (in connecting mode) or during oper
