2.3.2. Grounding
Appropriate grounding of the entire PV system limits voltage surges, gives a common
reference point for the conductive parts and facilitates the operation of the overcurrent
devices. The THEIA HE-t inverters meet all relevant safety requirements and include internal
surge protection.
DANGER: Ensure correct grounding of the inverter and the PV array!
Grounding must be carried out by qualified persons only and comply with local and
national electrical regulations.
Figure 2.3.4: Ground terminals in the customer connection area
1. The DC ground terminal is
located to the right of the –
NEG terminal in the
customer connection area
and labeled GND/PE.
2. The AC ground terminal is
located in the lower right
corner of the customer
connection area and labeled
GND.
• Refer to the local and national electrical regulations for correct installation and sizing of
grounding conductors.
• Only valid for France: According to UTE C 15-712-1 a minimum cross section area of 6
mm² / 10 AWG is required for the earth wire connection.
• Follow the safety instructions and specifications from the different PV module
manufacturers regarding grounding requirements.
CAUTION: Ensure correct grounding of the conductors!
The grounded PV conductors are grounded via the DC ground terminal and must
NOT be grounded at any other point in the system, as voltage potentials can appear
and possibly damage electrical components.
