SOLAR - GoodWe 4.6Kw - "CT meter connection error"

Featured Replies

Hi Everyone,

I have recently installed the GoodWe  4.5Kw hybrid inverter with 4 Solar panel. 

My setting mode : General Mode.

When I do the meter test I get the following error. 

"CT meter connection error"

And my batter stays at 99 percentage. and SOC is 98% through out. And During the day it does not go beyond 98%

My DOD is set to 60% on grid, 90% off grid.

I am in need of some guidance in terms of solving this issue. I tried best with installer but no luck. we even moved the CT close to the DB.

Please assist any pointer or suggestion might help

 

 

Thanks,

Waran

My installer asked that I make sure there is enough load on the grid when doing a test. If there is not, like the inverter is pushing out to the grid the meter test can be the wrong way around.

Anyways, since your issue is connection error, it is either the cabling or the meter itself or the port on the inverter. Slight possibility, if there is no load then you might also get that error.

Perhaps what you need to do is, use something else that can take readings from the CT to see that it actually work. If it does, you may need to get GoodWe involved to check out the inverter itself.
