Your solar system – including the inverter – is connected to the power grid. If it continues to run during a power outage, it will supply electricity to the power lines and put the lives of technicians at risk. For this reason inverter systems have an automatic shutdown feature.
If an inverter keeps shutting off it is often for safety reasons. This can occur if the voltage level is too high and the inverter cable is not thick enough to handle the incoming power. Other possible reasons are incorrect parameters, lack of power and damaged circuits.
Before we dive into the reasons, let’s understand what tripping means. Inverters convert DC power (usually from batteries or solar panels) to AC power (what your home uses). When something goes wrong—like a power overload or wiring problem—the inverter turns off or "trips" to protect itself and your appliances. Think of it like a safety switch.
During a grid power cut, the inverter must be turned off to prevent AC from being sent into the grid and threatening the professionals who are repairing the grid supply. By determining the grid’s voltage as well as frequency and modifying the AC produced to match, the inverter continuously detects the existence of grid electricity.
Our solar power systems and energy storage products are engineered for reliability, safety, and efficient deployment. All systems include comprehensive monitoring and control systems with remote management capabilities.
