Fault Description

Possible Causes

 

 

 

 

 

XX32

Right Matrix Over

S

This fault indicates that the PV225S

• CT4, CT5, or CT6 are

 

Current

 

has detected that the AC current on

 

inoperable

 

 

 

one or more phases of the inverter

CCU2 ±15Vdc Power

 

 

 

output has exceeded the maximum

 

Supply is defective

 

 

 

allowed value of 712 Arms.

• P3 on CCU2 is loose or

 

 

 

The first two digits of the fault code

 

disconnected

 

 

 

• AC system wiring short

 

 

 

indicate the particular phase where

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the over current occurred as follow:

 

 

 

 

 

• 0132 - Matrix over current in

 

 

 

 

 

phase A

 

 

 

 

 

• 0232 - Matrix over current in

 

 

 

 

 

phase B

 

 

 

 

 

• 0432 - Matrix over current in

 

 

 

 

 

phase C

 

 

 

 

 

If more than one phase faults

 

 

 

 

 

simultaneously, the two first digits

 

 

 

 

 

are added in hexadecimal form to

 

 

 

 

 

indicate an over current condition in

 

 

 

 

 

more than one phase, thus the error

 

 

 

 

 

code will contain the summation of

 

 

 

 

 

the faulted phases.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

0033

Ground Over

S

This fault indicates that the PV225S

CT8 is inoperable

 

Current

 

has detected that the ground fault

• CCU2 ±15 Vdc Power

 

 

 

current has exceeded the maximum

 

Supply is defective

 

 

 

allowed value. This maximum

• P3 on CCU2 is loose or

 

 

 

allowed value for ground fault current

 

disconnected

 

 

 

is a user-configurable setting with a

Ground -to-AC or

 

 

 

range of 1 to 20 Adc. The default

 

DC-to-System wiring

 

 

 

setting for this value is 10 Adc.

 

short

 

 

 

 

 

 

0040

Programming

S

This code indicates that the PV225S

 

 

 

Software

 

has detected that the system is in

 

 

 

 

 

Programming mode. This fault does

 

 

 

 

 

not indicate any malfunction with the

 

 

 

 

 

PV225S, but is merely an indication

 

 

 

 

 

that the system software is in the

 

 

 

 

 

process of being downloaded into the

 

 

 

 

 

EEPROMs of the CCU2.
