----End
Two M6 screw holes are reserved on both left and right sides of the enclosure for installing an awning.
M6x60 expansion bolts are delivered with the SUN2000. If the length and amount of the bolts do not
meet installation requirements, prepare M6 stainless steel expansion bolts by yourself.
The expansion bolts delivered with the inverter are used for solid concrete walls. For other types of
walls, prepare bolts by yourself and ensure that the wall meets the load bearing requirements of the
inverter.
Avoid drilling holes in the utility pipes or cables attached to the back of the wall.
To prevent dust inhalation or contact with eyes, wear safety goggles and an anti-dust
respirator when drilling holes.
Clean up any dust in and around the holes using a vacuum cleaner and measure the
distance between holes. If large hole tolerance exists, position and drill holes again.
After removing the bolt, spring washer, and flat washer, level the front of the expansion
tube with the concrete wall. Otherwise, the mounting brackets will not stay steady on the
concrete wall.
Partially loosen the nut, flat washer and spring washer of the two expansion bolts below.
Prepare an anti-theft lock suitable for the lock hole diameter (Ф8 mm) by yourself.
An outdoor waterproof lock is recommended.
Keep the key to the anti-theft lock safe.
----End

----End
5 Electrical Connections
If the Smart Dongle is configured, you are advised to install the Smart Dongle before
connecting the signal cable.
The minimum cable diameter should comply with the local cable standard.
Factors influencing cable selection are as follows: nominal AC current, type of cable, routing
method, ambient temperature, and maximum desired line losses.
The PE point at the AC output port is used only as a PE equipotential point, and cannot substitute for
the PE point on the enclosure.
After the ground cable is installed, it is recommended that the silica gel or paint be applied to the
ground terminal for protection.
Additional Information
The SUN2000 has the grounding detection function. This function detects whether the
SUN2000 is grounded properly before its startup, or whether the ground cable is disconnected
when the SUN2000 is running. This function works under limited conditions. To ensure the
safe operation of the SUN2000, ground the SUN2000 properly according to the connection
requirements of the PGND cable. For some power grid types, if the output side of the inverter
is connected to an isolation transformer, ensure that the inverter is properly grounded and set
isolation settings to Input not grounded, with a transformer to enable the inverter to run
properly.
Procedure
Step 1 Crimp the OT terminal.
Pay attention not to damage the core wire when stripping a cable.
The cavity formed after crimping the conductor strip of the OT terminal needs to wrap the
core wire completely. The core wire needs to contact the OT terminal closely.
Wrap the wire crimping area with the heat shrink tubing or the PVC insulation tape. The
following figure uses the heat shrink tubing as an example.
When using the heat gun, protect devices from being scorched.
----End
Do not connect loads between the SUN2000 and the AC switch directly connected to it.
The SUN2000 is integrated with a comprehensive residual current monitoring unit. Once
detecting that the residual current exceeds the threshold, the SUN2000 immediately
disconnects itself from the power grid.
If the external AC switch can perform earth leakage protection, the rated leakage action
current should be greater than or equal to 100 mA.
If multiple SUN2000s connect to the general residual current device (RCD) through their
respective external AC switches, the rated leakage action current of the general RCD
should be greater than or equal to the number of SUN2000s multiplied by 100 mA.
A knife switch cannot be used as an AC switch.
The hex key is delivered with the inverter and bound to the hanging kit at the bottom of
the inverter.
Procedure
Step 1 Connect the AC output power cable to the AC connector.
The cable colors shown in the figures are for reference only. Select an appropriate cable according to
local standards.
----End
Disconnection
Disconnection can be performed in reverse order.
Before connecting the DC input power cable, ensure that the DC voltage is within the safe
range (lower than 60 V DC), and that the DC SWITCH is set to the OFF position. Failure
to do so could generate high voltage, which may cause electric shocks.
When the SUN2000 is operating, it is not allowed to operate the DC input power cable,
such as connecting or disconnecting a PV string or a PV module in a PV string. Failing to
do so may cause electric shocks.
If no PV string is connected to a DC input terminal of the SUN2000, do not remove the
watertight cap from the terminal. Otherwise, the IP rating of the SUN2000 will be
affected.
Ensure that the following conditions are met. Otherwise, the SUN2000 may be damaged, or
even a fire could happen.
PV modules connected in series in each PV string are of the same specifications.
The open-circuit voltage of each PV string is always lower than or equal to 1080 V DC.
The maximum short-circuit current of each PV string must be lower than or equal to 15 A.
The DC input power cable is correctly connected. The positive and negative terminals of a
PV module are connected to corresponding positive and negative DC input terminals of
the SUN2000.
If the DC input power cable is reversely connected, do not operate the DC switch and
positive and negative connectors. Wait until the solar irradiance declines at night and the
PV string current reduces to below 0.5 A, and then turn off the DC switch. Remove the
positive and negative connectors to correct the polarity.
Because the output of the PV string connected to the SUN2000 cannot be grounded,
ensure that the PV module output is insulated to ground.
The PV strings connecting to the same MPPT circuit should contain PV modules of the
same model and quantity.
During the installation of PV strings and the SUN2000, the positive or negative terminals
of PV strings may be short-circuited to ground if power cables are not properly installed or
routed. An AC or DC short circuit may occur and damage the device when the SUN2000
is operating. The caused device damage is not covered under any warranty.
Terminal Description
It is recommended that the number of PV modules connected to PV1 and PV2 be the same, and that the
number of PV modules connected to PV3 and PV4 be the same.
Procedure
Step 1 Connect the DC input power cable.
Before inserting the positive and negative connectors into the positive and negative DC input
terminals of the SUN2000, check that the DC SWITCH is OFF.
Use the Amphenol Helios H4 PV connectors supplied with the SUN2000. If the PV
connectors are lost or damaged, purchase the connectors of the same model. The device
damage caused by incompatible PV connectors is not covered under any warranty.
Cables with high rigidity, such as armored cables, are not recommended as DC input
power cables, because poor contact may be caused by the bending of the cables.
Before assembling DC connectors, label the cable polarities correctly to ensure correct
cable connections.
After crimping the positive and negative metal contacts, pull the DC input power cables
back to ensure that they are connected securely.
Insert the crimped metal contacts of the positive and negative power cables into the
appropriate positive and negative connectors. Then pull back the DC input power cables to
ensure that they are connected securely.
Crimp the metal stamping forming contacts using crimping tool H4TC0003 (Amphenol,
recommended), H4TC0002 (Amphenol), PV-CZM-22100 (Staubli), or PV-CZM-19100
(Staubli). When choosing PV-CZM-22100 or PV-CZM-19100, do not use the locator.
Otherwise metal contacts would be damaged.
(1) Locator
If the DC input power cable is reversely connected and the DC SWITCH is set to the ON
position, do not operate the DC SWITCH and positive and negative connectors. Otherwise,
the device may be damaged. The caused device damage is not covered under any warranty.
Wait until the solar irradiance declines and the PV string current drops to below 0.5 A. Then
set the two DC SWITCH to the OFF position, remove the positive and negative connectors,
and rectify the connection of the DC input power cable.
----End
Removing a DC connector
Before removing the positive and negative connectors, ensure that the DC SWITCH is OFF.
To remove the positive and negative connectors from the SUN2000, insert an open-end
wrench into the notch and press hard to remove the DC connector.
If you prepared a WLAN-FE Smart Dongle or 4G Smart Dongle configured with a SIM card, skip
this step.
If you prepared a Smart Dongle without a SIM card, you need to prepare a standard SIM card (size:
25 mm x 15 mm) with the capacity greater than or equal to 64 KB.
When installing the SIM card, determine its installation direction based on the silk screen and arrow
on the card slot.
When being pressed into place, the SIM card will be locked, which means that the card is installed
correctly.
To remove the SIM card, push it inwards. Then the SIM card springs out automatically.
When reinstalling the WLAN-FE Smart Dongle or 4G Smart Dongle, ensure that the buckle springs
back in place.
4G Smart Dongle
When routing the signal cable, ensure that it is separate from the power cable and away
from interfering sources to prevent communication from being affected.
The protection layer of the cable is in the connector. Cut off surplus core wires from the
protection layer. Ensure that the core wires are completely inserted into the cable holes,
and that the cable is securely connected.

6.3 Commissioning
6.3.1 Scenario 1: Smart Dongle Networking Scenario
Data in the screenshots is for reference only. The actual screens prevail.
The latest Android version is required for local commissioning. The iOS version is not updated and
can be used only for viewing PV plant information. You can search for "FusionSolar" in App Store
or scan the QR code to download the iOS version.
In areas (such as the UK) where the FusionSolar app is not available, or when a third-party
management system is used, only the SUN2000 app can be used for commissioning. This document
uses the FusionSolar app as an example to describe the commissioning method. For the SUN2000
app, perform operations as required.
To obtain the SUN2000 App, scan the QR code or search for SUN2000 in Huawei AppGallery,
download the latest installation package, and install the SUN2000 app by following the instructions.
The SUN2000 app version should be 3.2.00.002 (Android) or later.
To create multiple installer accounts for the same company, log in to the FusionSolar app and
tap New User.
Figure 6-4 Creating multiple installer accounts for the same company
For details, see the FusionSolar App Quick Guide. You can scan the QR code to obtain it.
If FusionSolar app can access the network, you can access Device commissioning after login to
FusionSolar app.
Step 2 Connect to the inverter WLAN. Log in as installer, and perform Quick settings.
When the inverter is directly connected to the mobile phone using the built-in antenna, the distance
between the inverter and mobile phone must be less than 5 m without obstructions in between to
ensure the communication quality between the FusionSolar app and inverter. The distance is for
reference only and may vary depending on mobile phones and whether there are obstructions
between the inverter and the mobile phone.
When connecting the SUN2000L to the FusionSolar app over a router, ensure that the mobile phone
and inverter are in the WiFi coverage of the router and the SUN2000L is connected to the router.
The router supports WiFi (IEEE 802.11 b/g/n, 2.4 GHz) and the WiFi signal reaches the inverter.
The WPA, WPA2, or WPA/WPA2 encryption mode is recommended for routers. Enterprise-level
encryption is not supported (for example, public hotspots requiring authentication such as airport
WiFi). WEP and WPA TKIP are not recommended because these two encryption modes have serious
security defects. If the inverter cannot be connected using WEP, log in to the router and change the
encryption mode to WPA2 or WPA/WPA2. If the inverter cannot be connected using WEP, log in to
the router and change the encryption mode to WPA2 or WPA/WPA2.
Step 3 (Optional) When multiple inverters are connected to a third-party data collector, set RS485
parameters.
----End
After the SUN2000 is powered off, the remaining electricity and heat may still cause electric
shocks or body burns. Therefore, put on protective gloves and operate the SUN2000 five
minutes after the power-off.
Procedure
Step 1 Send a shutdown command from the app.
Step 2 Turn off the AC switch between the SUN2000 and the power grid.
Step 3 Set the DC SWITCH at the bottom of the SUN2000 to the OFF position.
Step 4 Turn off the DC switch between the PV string and the SUN2000 if there is one.

Context
The Italy CEI0-21 grid code requires an IPS test for the SUN2000. During the IPS test
process, the SUN2000 consecutively tests the protection thresholds and time for 10-min
overvoltage, level 1 overvoltage, level 1 undervoltage, level 1 overfrequency, and level 1
underfrequency. The SUN2000 shuts down after the IPS test starts, and it restarts after the IPS
test is successful.
Procedure
Step 1 On the Home screen, choose Device maintenance > IPS test to access the IPS test screen.
Step 2 Choose to start the S1 or S2 check as required. The default check type is S2. To start the S2
check, you need to set External Signal or Local Command.
S1 The level 1
overfrequency
protection threshold
is 50.5 Hz and the
level 1
underfrequency
protection threshold
is 49.5 Hz.
S2 The level 1
overfrequency
protection threshold
is 51.5 Hz and the
level 1
underfrequency
protection threshold
is 47.5 Hz.
Step 3 Tap Start to start the IPS test. After the IPS test is complete, IPS State is displayed as IPS
state success. Tap Reports in the upper right corner of the IPS test screen to view IPS
