This section describes the SUN2000 working process.
Circuit Diagrams
The SUN2000 receives inputs from six PV strings. Then the inputs are grouped into three
MPPT circuits inside the SUN2000 to track the maximum power point of the PV strings. The
DC power is then converted into three-phase AC power through an inverter circuit. Surge
protection is supported on both the DC and AC sides. For details, see Figure 2-10.

Working Description
Mode
Standby The SUN2000 enters the standby mode when the external environment does
not meet the SUN2000 operation requirements. In standby mode, the
SUN2000 continuously performs self-check and enters the operating mode
once the operation requirements are met.
The SUN2000 switches from standby mode to shutdown mode if it detects a
shutdown command or a fault.
Operating In operating mode:

 The SUN2000 converts DC power from PV strings into AC power and
feeds the power to the power grid.
 The SUN2000 tracks the maximum power point to maximize the PV
string output.
 The SUN2000 enters the shutdown mode if detecting a fault or a
shutdown command, and enters the standby mode if detecting that the
PV string output power does not meet the requirements for grid-tied
electricity generation.
Shutdown The SUN2000 switches from standby or operating mode to shutdown mode
if detecting a fault or a shutdown command.
The SUN2000 switches from shutdown mode to standby mode if receiving a
startup command or detecting that a fault is rectified.

Prerequisites
 Before connecting DC input power cables, ensure that the voltage on the DC side is within
the safe range (lower than 60 V DC) and that the DC SWITCH on the SUN2000 is OFF.
Otherwise, high voltage may result in electric shock.
 When the SUN2000 is grid-tied, do not maintain DC input power cables, such as
connecting or disconnecting a PV string or a PV module in a PV string. Otherwise, it may
result in electric shocks.
To avoid fire, ensure that the following conditions are met.

 The maximum open-circuit voltage of each PV string must be always lower than or equal
to 1000 V DC.
 The positive and negative terminals of PV modules must be connected to the positive and
negative DC input terminals of the SUN2000 respectively.

 If the SUN2000 is directly connected to the power grid with the neutral wire connected to
the PGND cable (for example, a low-voltage power grid or a power grid with the neutral
wire grounded), do not ground the positive and negative terminals of PV strings.
Otherwise, the SUN2000 will fail to work.
 During PV string and SUN2000 installation, the positive or negative terminals of PV
strings may be grounded if power cables are not properly installed or routed. In this case,
an AC or DC short circuit may occur and damage the SUN2000.

8.1 Routine Maintenance

To ensure that the SUN2000 can operate properly for a long term, you are advised to perform
routine maintenance on it as described in this chapter.
 Before cleaning the system, and maintaining the cable connections and grounding
reliability, power off the system (see 6.2 Powering Off the SUN2000) and ensure that the
DC SWITCH on the inverter are OFF.
 If you need to open the maintenance compartment door in rainy or snowy days, take
protective measures to prevent rain and snow entering the maintenance compartment. If it
is impossible to take protective measures, do not open the maintenance compartment door
in rainy or snowy days.

SUN2000 is powered off.
 If DC SWITCH is switch to OFF on the DC side, it is recommended that you lock the
DC switch to avoid switching it on by mistake.
8.2 Troubleshooting
This section describes the troubleshooting measures for common fault alarms in the
SUN2000.
The alarm severity is defined as follows:
 Major: The SUN2000 enters the shutdown mode and stops feeding electricity to the
power grid due to a fault.
 Minor: Some components are faulty but the SUN2000 can still feed electricity to the
power grid.
 Warning: The SUN2000 output power decreases due to external factors.
Table 8-2 describes the common faults of the SUN2000 and troubleshooting measures.
