8000041160 BAL Page 89 of 100

All measuring and monitoring devices used for testing must

comply with standards DIN VDE 0413/EN 61557 and

DIN 0404 and must be tested and calibrated regularly in ac-

ordance with ISO 9001:2000.

The equipment has various diagnostic functions (some of which

are optional), which can significantly reduce the time required for

maintenance work and troubleshooting.

Self-diagnosis:

This is activated when the equipment is switched on. Internal auxil-

iary programs monitor the bus system, the control PCBs and the

sensors (amongst other things), and signal any faults that occur.

Data logger:

Measured data, parameters and fault indications are saved contin-

uously. Measured data and performance data, as well as fault his-

tories, can be read out and evaluated as required.

The operating instructions describe how to output perfor-

mance and fault histories.

Repeat tests as part of maintenance must be carried out in ac-

cordance with BGV A3 to verify that the equipment is in perfect

working order. They must be carried out by personnel with electro-

technical training at stipulated times.

At stipulated times, the user must check that the fault current, dif-

ferential current and fault voltage protection devices are function-

ing properly.

• AC mains at terminal X3

• DC voltage with inverter switched off

• Check remote signalling contacts:

− Check remote alarm signals

− Check DOU

• Check the earth connectors:

− Check the earth connectors

− Measure contact resistance

• Perform an insulation test:

− Individual measurement via mega-ohmmeter

− Start the insulation test manually

The manual insulation test is carried out in accordance with

 Chapter 5.4.2 - Thin-Film Solar Cells.
