So, it is important to check that your inverter is working properly weekly. Grounding faults known Gfdi are one of the most common earthing Faults on a solar system. Depending on the inverter this can sometimes cause a small fuse to blow inside the inverter. This will then cause the inverter to display a grounding or earth fault relay error, and code warning display light. This may vary from the brand depending on the manufacture. But ultimately the inverter will disconnect from the grid power leaving your solar system unusable. Till you send for your KMF Electrical Solar Technician. The great news is that your new inverter will have an audible alarm or flashing light. Built in as part of the latest release of AS 5033 to alert you that this has happened.

All Inverters come with a five-year warranty and the truth is we do not want to see you contacting us in the 6 years and doing the same thing again replacing the inverter. With most premium inverter manufactures offer an extend warranty which can usually be purchased with the new inverter. From time to time, they even offer free extended warranty. I have heard of a lot of horror stories over the years Like one large Chinese inverter company going belly up and that’s where your warranty goes to unfortunately. Also, companies from outside the area that have originally installed the system being too busy to come back and replace your inverter. Well, it could be a 2 our 3.5 hour plus drive. Or they will try to make you pay for the freight of the new inverter to your home.

The inverter is the heart of your solar system and works to convert Dc power produced by your solar panels from the sun into to usable AC power. To make your kettle boil run your hot water, electric cooking. With the right designed solar system orientated to collect the sun all day. This a very exciting thing to a lot of people especially when they can run their appliances for free from the sun all day.


These are a Few premium inverter names as follows SMA, Fronius, ABB. It is true, SMA is now manufacturing inverters in China. But let clear heads prevail. We are not talking about them being made in sweat shops in China. SMA are multi-billion-dollar company that employ 6000 people, with state-of-the-art factories. For manufacturing their products in China under there strict quality control, to me there is little difference in that. Also, my advice to people when choosing a new solar inverter is do not read too much into all the technical details. Our you might get daunted and overwhelmed. Instead leave it to your local solar specialist they should be able to tell your very thing you need to know about purchasing a new inverter.
