If the inverter is being operated with an external string collection box, the DC
connector kit 25 (item numbers 42,0201,4479 for DC+ and 42,0201,4480 for
DC-) must be used. In this case the solar modules are externally protected in the
string collection box and the metal bolts should be used in the inverter.
National regulations regarding fuse protection must be observed. The electrical
engineer carrying out the installation is responsible for the correct choice of
string fuses.
Danger due to defective fuses.
This can result in fires.

The inverter is delivered with metal bolts as standard.

If a maximum fuse protection value is not specified, please request it from the
solar module manufacturer.
