Lesson 4.2 — Troubleshooting from the Sun Down

No output?Check panel voltage (Voc)Voc OK → check controllerLEDs & fuseController OK → batteryvoltage & terminalsBattery OK → inverterinput, output, alarm codesRule: measure from the sun toward the load. Each stage must show correct voltage before blaming the next one.Always isolate DC (panel breaker) and AC (inverter output) before touching conductors.

Competency 8's method: follow the energy. No power at night but fine by day = battery problem (sulfated, undersized, or loads too big). Slow charging = dirty panels, shade creep (that mango tree grew), loose MC4, or a PWM controller pulling the string below its power point. Controller error codes are your friend — photograph them before resetting. And measure before replacing: half of 'dead inverters' are a blown battery fuse.

Key points

  • Follow energy: sun → panel → controller → battery → inverter → load
  • Photograph error codes before resetting
  • Measure before replacing anything
  • Dirty panels in dry season can cost 20%+ output
