SolarEdge error code resolution guide

Owning a SolarEdge inverter has the benefit of SolarEdge module-level optimisation included. The maximum power point tracking (MPPT) and voltage management are individually handled for each module by the power optimiser and not necessarily the inverter. This feature makes locating faults on the PV array more straightforward and avoids testing each panel should an error be present within the solar array. However, the SolarEdge error codes may differ depending on the hardware installed on the single or three-phase inverter. For your convenience, we have accumulated the error codes and messages following each inverter.

Find your respective SolarEdge error codes:

1. Record the number displayed on the inverter and determine if the inverter is 1 or 3 phase (important).

2. Skip to your SolarEdge inverter error code using one of the buttons in the menu below. If the inverter displays a simple number code, it will be under the CPU v3.18xx tab. Otherwise, if the error code has numbers and letters, e.g., 3xC, it will be under the CPU v3.19xx tab.

Example: if error code 2×13 is displayed and you have a single-phase inverter, select the CPU v3.19xx and later, including 4.x button within the single-phase section. Locate 2×13 and select the Error Code with the 2×13 tab.

Need additional insight? Post your SolarEdge inverter error codes and questions in the comments at the bottom.

The good news, if installed correctly by a SolarEdge professional, your Solaredge error code is more likely to be an external error. In addition, SolarEdge inverters incorporate built-in safety features to prevent an expensive critical failure to the system. With this in mind, something external may influence your inverter’s current state, and the code notifies you of this instance.

Description: SW Error.

What to do: Contact SolarEdge Support.

Description: AC Current Surge, Vac surge. Ground current surge.

What to do: Check the AC connection to the inverter Check with the grid operator if a large surge source or irregular load exists near the site. If the grid does not have problems contact SolarEdge support.

Description: Ground Current – RCD. Ground faults may occur due to insufficient insulation to the ground.

What to do: WARNING! ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD. Do not touch uninsulated wires when the inverter cover is removed. Only a qualified technician should handle this problem, and only after taking proper precautions. 1. Turn the inverter ON/OFF switch to OFF. 2. Wait five minutes for the input capacitors to discharge. 3. Disconnect the AC breaker. 4. Disconnect the DC inputs. 5. Connect each DC string separately, turn the AC and the inverter ON/OFF switch to ON, until the error appears for the faulty string. Do not connect strings with a grounding fault to the inverter. A certified installer must fix the faulty string before connecting it to the inverter. For further documentation, contact SolarEdge Support.

Description: AC Voltage Too High (Line 1/2/3).

What to do: If the fault persists: Check the AC connection to inverter. Verify that the inverter is set to the correct country.
