This installation guide provides a comprehensive and standardized reference for installing Anern Solar Power Systems, including off-grid solar systems, hybrid solar systems, energy storage systems (ESS), MPPT solar charge controllers, and portable solar storage solutions. It is intended for professional installers, EPC contractors, distributors, and technical support teams.

 

1. What Is an Anern Solar Power System?

An Anern solar power system is an integrated energy solution that combines solar panels, inverters, charge controllers, and battery storage to provide stable and reliable electricity for residential, commercial, and industrial applications. These systems can operate in off-grid, hybrid, or backup configurations depending on project requirements.

 

2. Safety Instructions (Mandatory)

  • Installation must be carried out by qualified personnel only.  

  • Disconnect all AC and DC power sources before installation or maintenance.  

  • Follow all local electrical codes, standards, and regulations.  

  • Do not short-circuit battery terminals or reverse polarity.  

  • Ensure proper grounding of all system components.

 

3. System Components Overview

A typical Anern solar power system includes:

  • Solar panels (PV array)  

  • Solar inverter or inverter-charger  

  • MPPT solar charge controller (if applicable)  

  • Battery bank (lead-acid or lithium)  

  • AC distribution box and electrical loads  

  • DC protection devices (breakers, fuses)  

  • Monitoring or communication modules (optional)

 

4. Installation Environment Requirements

  • Install equipment in a dry, well-ventilated, dust-free location.  

  • Avoid direct sunlight, rain, moisture, and corrosive environments.  

  • Maintain a minimum clearance of 30 cm around equipment for ventilation and maintenance.  

  • Recommended ambient operating temperature: 0°C to 40°C (unless otherwise specified).

 

5. Mounting Installation

 

5.1 Solar Panels (PV Modules)

  • Install panels facing the equator (south-facing in the northern hemisphere, north-facing in the southern hemisphere).  

  • Ensure panels are free from shading throughout the day.  

  • Use strong mounting structures and corrosion-resistant fasteners.  

 

5.2 Inverter & Energy Storage System

  • Mount the inverter or ESS on a solid, non-flammable wall or stable floor.  

  • Install vertically to ensure proper heat dissipation.  

  • Keep away from heat sources and flammable materials.  

 

5.3 MPPT Solar Charge Controller

  • Install close to the battery bank to minimize voltage drop.  

  • Mount on a vertical surface with sufficient airflow.  

 

6. Electrical Wiring and Connection

 

6.1 Connection Sequence (Critical)

Correct wiring order is essential:

  • Connect battery to inverter or charge controller  

  • Connect AC output and loads  

  • Connect solar panels (PV array)  

 

Failure to follow this sequence may cause equipment damage.

 

6.2 Battery Connection

  • Verify battery voltage matches system requirements.  

  • Install DC breakers or fuses between battery and equipment.  

  • Use short, thick cables to reduce voltage loss.  

  • For lithium batteries, connect BMS communication cables if required.  

 

6.3 Solar Panel (PV) Connection

  • Ensure PV open-circuit voltage does not exceed system limits.  

  • Connect panels in series or parallel according to system design.  

  • Install a PV DC isolator or breaker for safety.  

 

6.4 AC Wiring

  • Install external AC breakers for both input and output.  

  • Ensure correct wiring of Live (L), Neutral (N), and Earth (PE).  

  • Do not connect AC output directly to the grid unless the system supports grid connection.  

 

7. Grounding and Protection

  • Properly ground all system components.  

  • Use surge protection devices where required.  

  • Ensure over-current protection on both DC and AC sides.  

 

8. System Configuration and Settings

  • Set system voltage according to battery type.  

  • Configure battery type (lead-acid or lithium).  

  • Adjust charging and discharging parameters.  

  • Set inverter operating mode (solar priority, battery priority, mains priority, etc.).  

 

9. Final Inspection and Power-On Procedure

Before powering on:

  • Confirm all wiring connections are secure and correct.  

  • Ensure all breakers are in the OFF position.  

 

Power-on sequence:

  • Turn on battery breaker  

  • Turn on inverter or charge controller  

  • Turn on PV breaker  

  • Turn on AC input breaker (if applicable)  

 

Check system status via LCD display or indicators.

 

10. Operation and Maintenance

  • Clean solar panels regularly to maintain efficiency.  

  • Periodically inspect cables, terminals, and breakers.  

  • Keep ventilation openings unobstructed.  

  • During long-term shutdown, disconnect PV, battery, and AC power.  

 

11. Important Notes

  • System performance may be reduced during extended cloudy or rainy periods.  

  • Battery capacity and load demand must be properly matched.  

  • Always refer to specific product manuals for detailed parameters and advanced settings.

Q1: Who is allowed to install Anern solar power systems?

Only qualified electricians, certified solar installers, or trained EPC professionals are permitted to install Anern solar power systems.

Q2: Can Anern solar systems operate without grid power?

Yes. Anern systems support off-grid operation and can also work in hybrid configurations with grid backup.

Q3: Why is the connection sequence important?

Incorrect connection order may cause inverter or controller damage due to unstable voltage or current surge

Q4: Can lithium and lead-acid batteries be used in the same system?

No. Different battery types must not be mixed within the same system due to different charging characteristics.

Q5: What should I do if the system does not start after installation?

Check battery voltage, wiring polarity, breaker status, and inverter settings. If the issue persists, contact Anern technical support.

Q6: Does improper installation affect the warranty?

Yes. Improper installation or failure to follow this guide may void the product warranty.
