3. If the problem persists, contact the SMA Service Line.

11.2 Checking the PV System for Ground Faults

If the LED Inverter on the Sunny Multigate is glowing red, this may indicate a ground fault in the
PV system. The electrical insulation between the PV system and ground is defective.

Danger to life due to electric shock
In the event of a ground fault, high voltages can be present.

No terminal of the PV module must be grounded.
• Only touch the cables of the PV modules on their insulation.
• Do not touch any parts of the framework or supports of the PV modules.
• Do not connect PV modules with ground faults to the inverter.

If the Sunny Multigate indicates a ground fault in the PV array, proceed as follows:
