Installation Manual Three Phase Inverters For Delta Grids

This document provides instructions for connecting SolarEdge three-phase inverters to delta grids in some countries. It explains that the inverters have two fuse holders that configure the AC connection as WYE or delta grids. To set for a delta connection, the fuse must be moved from the WYE to the delta fuse holder. It also details reduced power ratings and design rules when using the inverters on delta grids.

Three Phase Inverters for Delta Grids (Europe & APAC)


In some countries, the SolarEdge three phase inverters can be connected to delta grids. Prior to system installation, refer to
the Supported Countries application note to confirm compatibility: http://www.solaredge.com/sites/default/files/se_
inverters_supported_countries.pdf; installing without confirmation may void the inverter warranty.
SolarEdge three phase inverters are equipped with two fuse holders and a fuse. The position of the fuse configures the AC
grid connection: WYE (3 Lines/PE/N) or delta (3 Lines/PE) grid connection. By default, the fuse is located in the WYE fuse
holder of the inverter, and in the Delta fuse holder there is a plastic dummy fuse.
To set the inverter for delta grid connection, you must move the fuse from the WYE fuse holder, marked as Y GRID, to the
Delta fuse holder, marked as ∆ GRID (see Figure 1).
CAUTION!
The only supported delta grids are the 3 Lines / PE. Corner grounding is not supported. Connecting the inverter to
other delta grids may damage the inverter and will void the warranty.

Design Rules
Inverters connected to the delta grid will operate with reduced AC power rating, due to the lower grid voltage; for full
specifications refer to the inverter datasheets:
l SE6K-SE12.5K
l SE15K-SE27.6K
The following table details PV system design using the SE6K- SE27.6K inverters in delta grids.

Setting the Inverter to Support Delta Grids

To set the inverter for delta grid connection:

NOTE
Perform this procedure before connecting the inverter Safety Switch (if applicable) to the AC grid.

1. Remove the inverter cover: Open the inverter cover’s six Allen screws and carefully pull the cover horizontally before
lowering it.
2. Identify the fuse locations and the markings as described in Figure 1.

3. Remove the dummy fuse from the delta grid fuse holder and set it aside.
4. Move the fuse from the WYE grid fuse holder to the delta grid fuse holder.

5. Place the dummy fuse in the WYE grid fuse holder.


6. During system setup, set the country to the appropriate delta grid option. Refer to Country and Grid on page 1. Using the
non-delta setting may result in incorrect system operation.
CAUTION!
If the fuse was moved to support one of the grid types, do not connect the inverter to the other grid type without
switching the fuse back to the correct holder. Connecting the inverter to grids when the fuse is incorrectly located may
damage the inverter and void the warranty.
