ACTION
The ground for the DC input is provided by the integral 
GFDI circuit. DC input should not be grounded external 
to the unit.
Circuit board fuse
The power section has two internal circuit board fuses. These 
are labelled F801 or F861 on the circuit board. 
F801:
Model: 179120 5x20 time-lag 250VAC/0.4A 
Manufacturer: SIBA
F861:
Model: TR5-Fuse series 372 250VAC/125VDC/1A time-lag
Manufacturer: Littlefuse/Wickmann
!
WARNING
For continued protection against risk of fire, replace
only with same type and ratings of fuse.

NOTE
A screwdriver (slotted, 3.5 mm) is to be used for the terminals 
in the inverter. Put the screwdriver into the intended cut-out. 
Press the screwdriver upwards a bit. Put the cable into the 
spring terminal. Put the screwdriver back into the original 
position. Remove the screwdriver. The spring terminal is 
closed and the cable is held in place. Lightly pull on the 
wire to be sure it is secure.
!
CAUTION
Be sure the inverter is configured for the proper DC
grounding configuration of the system.
!
CAUTION
The voltage of the solar generator must be
measured before connecting the DC leads to the
inverter terminals. The DC voltage must not exceed
the max. generator voltage because this would
destroy the unit.
ACTION
Before connecting the PV generator to the blueplanet, check 
that the PV generator is not grounded.
– Measure the DC voltage between the protective ground
(PG) and the positive lead and between the protective 
ground (PG) and the negative lead of the PV generator.
– If stable voltages can be measured, this indicates a
ground fault in the PV generator or its wiring. The ratio 
between the measured voltages gives an indication as to 
the location of this fault. Rectify this fault before taking 
any further measurements.
– Measure the electrical resistance between the protective
ground (PG) and the positive lead and between the 
protective ground (PG) and the negative lead of the PV 
generator. 
– Low resistance (< 2 MΩ) indicates a high-impedance
ground fault of the PV generator, which must be fixed 
prior to continuing with the installation.
Once the wiring in the connection box is installed the protective 
cover over the terminals must be secured using the included 
screws and must not be opened unless the switch is in the off 
position, the AC breaker is in the off position, and the PV array 
is powered down with an opaque cover or other equivalent 
method to assure there is no DC voltage present in the box. 
The connection box should be considered the same as any 
other external DC disconnect switch which has live conductors 
inside.
