Regulations
! DANGER
– Danger due to lethal voltages.
– Lethal voltages are present within the unit and on
the power supply lines. Therefore, only authorized
electricians may install and open the unit.
– Even when the unit is disconnected, high contact
voltages may still be present within the unit.
Accident prevention regulations
The inverter must be installed by an authorized electrician who

!
CAUTION
Risk of damage due to improper modifi cations.
Never modify or manipulate the inverter or other
components of the installation.
Transportation
The inverter is subjected to extensive testing and inspections
in our test fi eld. This is how we ensure the high quality of our
products. Our inverters leave our factory in proper electrical
and mechanical condition. Special packaging ensures safe and
careful transportation. However, transport damage may still
occur. The shipping company is responsible in such cases.
Thoroughly inspect the inverter upon delivery. Immediately
notify the responsible shipping company if you discover any
damage to the packaging which indicates that the inverter
may have been damaged or if you discover any visible damage
to the inverter.
If necessary, your solar installer or KACO new energy GmbH will
assist you. Damage reports must be received by the shipping
company in writing within six days of receipt of the goods.
When transporting the inverter, the original or equivalent
packaging is to be used, as this ensures safe transport.
NOTE
FCC Compliance
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply
with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause

there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
– Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
– Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected.
– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician
for help.
3 Notes on Installation
and Operation
3.1 Intended use
The unit converts the DC voltage generated by the photovoltaic
(PV) modules into AC voltage and feeds this into the utility grid.
blueplanet inverters are built according to all required safety
rules. Nevertheless, improper use may cause lethal hazards for
the operator or third parties, or may result in damage to the
units and other property.
The inverter may only be operated with a permanent connection
to the public power grid.
The inverter is not intended for mobile use.
Any other or additional use is not considered the intended use.
The manufacturer/supplier is not liable for damage caused by
such unintended use. Damage caused by such unintended use
is at the sole risk of the operator.
Intended use also includes adherence to the operating and
installation instructions. Your authorized electrician undertakes
the registration with your power supply company and obtains
approval for your photovoltaic installation from the supply
grid operator on your behalf. Some of the documents that you
require in order to register your photovoltaic installation and
have it approved are included in the installation instructions.
