12.1 Sunny Tripower is Beeping
Electric shock due to electric arc when pulling out the DC connectors
Death or serious burns
The Sunny Tripower has short-circuited the PV array to avoid reverse currents.
• Strictly adhere to the procedure as described in the following table.
Cause Event number on
the display Measure
Installation fault
(reverse polarity of a string or
connection of strings with
different numbers of modules)
OR
Reverse current in the PV
system (defective string)
The Sunny Tripower
short-circuits the PV array to
avoid reverse currents through
individual strings. Depending
on the level of irradiation, this
could trigger high current flows.
However, the PV array and the
Sunny Tripower are in a safe
state. 4001 to 4003
or 4005 • On no account pull the Electronic
Solar Switch or DC connectors out.
Wait until the Sunny Tripower stops
beeping (after dark).
If you pull the DC connectors, there is a
risk of electric arcing.
• With an open Sunny Tripower:
Prior to leaving the Sunny Tripower,
install contact protection (e.g., fence)
and moisture protection (e.g., tarpaulin).
• Wait until dark before pulling out
the Electronic Solar Switch and all
DC connectors, and only then
eliminate any errors (reversed-pole
or defective string).
