4.11 DECOMMISSIONING
To put the Solar ChargeMaster out of operation, follow
these instructions in order of succession:
1 Switch off all loads that are connected to the Solar
ChargeMaster;
2 Disconnect the PV array by switching off the switch
between the PV-array and the Solar ChargeMaster (or
protect the PV-array from light exposure, e.g. by
covering the PV modules);
3 Remove the DC-fuse between the Solar ChargeMaster
and the battery;
4 Remove the DC-fuse between the Solar ChargeMaster
and the load;
5 Check with a suitable voltage meter whether the
Battery connection and the LOAD output of the Solar
ChargeMaster are voltage free;
6 Disconnect the negative cable to the PV array from the
terminal block of the Solar ChargeMaster. Isolate the
core of the wire with insulating tape;
7 Do the same for the positive cable to the PV array;
8 Disconnect all other remaining wiring.
Now the Solar ChargeMaster can be demounted in a safe
way.
