    FAQs about Safety requirements for installing inverters in communication base stations

    Can the inverter be installed in residential areas?

    The inverter produces noise while in operation, so we do not recommend installation in residential areas. The inverter shall be mounted in the area where there is no interference from other power and electronic equipment. The inverter cannot be installed in salt stress areas, e.g. coastal areas within 500m from the coast.

    Where should the inverter be mounted?

    The inverter shall be mounted at a height that makes the LED light indicator panel legible and the switch easy to use. The inverter produces noise while in operation, so we do not recommend installation in residential areas. The inverter shall be mounted in the area where there is no interference from other power and electronic equipment.

    Do I need to read this document before installing the inverter?

    Please read this document carefully before installing the inverter. Without the consent of Sungrow Power Supply Co., Ltd., no part of this document may be distributed, reproduced, or disclosed to a third party or uploaded to a third party platform such as a public network.

    Can an inverter be installed in a salt stress area?

    The inverter cannot be installed in salt stress areas, e.g. coastal areas within 500m from the coast. The amount deposited by a salt fog is correlated to the characteristics of the sea water, winds, precipitation, air humidity, topography, and forest coverage of adjacent water bodies or seas.

    What are the spacing requirements for a heat dissipation inverter?

    The following spacing requirements are proposed to satisfy the requirements of heat dissipation, installation, and maintenance. The inverter shall be installed in an area where there is sufficient space to ensure proper ventilation. *The spacing can be reduced to 200mm according to site conditions.

    How to install an inverter in a distributed power plant?

    This mounting method is commonly used in ground-based distributed power plants. Usually, the inverter is mounted directly on the fixed support of the module or mounted on the column under the module by using a clamp. The inverter shall be installed in an area where there is sufficient space to ensure proper ventilation.
