4.4 Basic Configuration of the Sunny Island Inverter

Requirements:

☐ The off-grid system must be installed according to the circuitry (see Section 4.1, page 17).
☐ All device enclosures must be closed except for the BatFuse. This protects all live components from being touched.
☐ All circuit breakers in the AC distribution board must be open. Thus, the Sunny Island is not connected to an AC

source.

Damage to the battery due to incorrect settings
The battery parameters influence the charging behavior of the Sunny Island inverter. The battery can be damaged by

incorrect settings of the parameters for battery type, nominal voltage, and capacity.

• Ensure that the values recommended by the battery manufacturer are set for the battery during basic configuration

(for the battery technical data, see the documentation of the battery manufacturer).

• In the basic configuration, configure the battery capacity for a ten-hour electric discharge (C10). The battery

manufacturer specifies the battery capacity in relation to discharge time.

Check the wiring

(see the Sunny Island inverter installation manual).

Close all devices except the BatFuse.

This protects all live components from being touched.

Close the BatFuse load-break switch and press the "On" button on the Sunny Island.
