InsightLocal indicates an input over voltage error — PV panels are producing voltage levels outside operating specifications

What does InsightLocal indicates an input over voltage error mean?

InsightLocal is reporting an input over-voltage error. This typically occurs when the voltage from the PV panels is too high for the charge controller, often due to cold weather.

• The PV panels are producing voltage levels that are outside the operating specifications for the charge controller.
• Extreme cold temperatures for the region.
• Too many PV panels in series, requiring reconfiguration.

Click steps to track your progress.

1. 1

   This condition will likely correct itself when the panels warm up and the voltage decreases.

2. 2

   If it occurs regularly, the installation may have too many PV panels in series.

3. 3

   Consult the 'Electrical Specifications' for the charge controller's operating range.

4. 4

   Consider reconfiguring the PV array to lower the voltage if the problem persists.
