Error 086 triggers when the high-voltage solar MPPT input port registers an open-circuit voltage (Voc) or transient surge exceeding the maximum rating (typically 150V DC or 600V DC depending on high-voltage port architecture), prompting the BMS and charge controller to trip overvoltage protection to prevent semiconductor destruction.
AC Pass-Through Overload Protection
Error 301 triggers when the bidirectional inverter detects an aggregate load on the AC output ports exceeding the safe pass-through rating (typically >3600W/30A at 120V or thermal limit under continuous bypass), forcing the AC transfer relay to trip to protect the internal bus and switching MOSFETs.
