Delta Grid Guide (earth detection)

Applicable to: SHxxRS series

Updated over a week ago

In some regions the grid provides a 230V three-phase network. Phase to phase voltage is 230V and phase to PE ~ 133V.

Following SUNGROW 1-phase inverters support this type of grid:
SH3.0/3.6/4.0/5.0/6.0RS
SG2.0/2.5/3.0RS-S
SG3.0/3.6/4.0/5.0/6.0RS

To set up the inverter for this grid-type, several adjustments must be made.

1. Ground detection must be deactivated

2. The PE of the AC grid terminal, Backup Port and enclosures must be solidly connected to house PE-bar.

De-activating Grounding Detection

To operate a 1-phase inverter in a 230V 3phase system, the grounding function must be disabled. This can be done locally or via remote access on iSolarCloud web interface.

If Grounding Detection is not disabled or the inverter and Backup port is not properly grounded, the inverter will show error code 106. (E106)

Disable Grounding Detection function locally:

  • Select Local Access on your iSolarCloud App.

  • Scan QR-Code on your communication device to access local WiFi and login with admin/pw8888.

  • Navigate to: More -> Settings -> Operation Parameters -> Grounding Detection.

  • Disable Grounding Detection and wait for the confirmation.

Disable Grounding Detection via iSolarCloud web interface

  • Login to iSolarCloud and select the plant.

  • Click Settings, mark the inverter and choose Advanced Settings.

  • In Advanced Settings, choose Power Control and scroll down until you find Grounding Detection.

  • Choose Close from the dropdown menu und finally confirm your setting with Apply Settings.

Disable Backup Mode

  • Login to iSolarCloud and select the plant.

  • Click Settings, mark the inverter and choose Common Parameter Settings.

  • In Common Parameter Settings, choose Power Control and find Backup Mode.

  • Disable the Backup Mode and Apply Settings to save the parameter changes.

Please be aware, that it is necessary to connect the inverters AC grid terminal, Backup port as well as the inverters enclosures straight and solidly to the PE bar of the house.
