What to do if a CanadianSolar CSI-5K-S22003-E Inverter malfunction impairs safety?
If a malfunction impairs the CanadianSolar Inverter's safe operation, it must be repaired immediately before restarting the inverter. Please contact local authorized personnel if any service work is required.
How to prevent damage when servicing a CanadianSolar CSI-5K-S22003-E?
To prevent damage when servicing a CanadianSolar Inverter: Use only accessories and spare parts approved by the inverter manufacturer. Never modify the inverter or other components of the inverter, as doing so may result in the loss of warranty rights.
How to safely service a CanadianSolar CSI-5K-S22003-E to avoid injury?
To safely service a CanadianSolar Inverter and avoid injury, remember that the inverter is powered by both the PV array and the utility grid. Before any service work: 1. Disconnect the inverter from the utility grid first, and then from the PV array. 2. Wait at least 5 minutes after shutting down the inverter to allow the inner capacitors to discharge completely. 3. Verify that there is no voltage or current present using appropriate testing devices.
