2 Safety

2.1 Appropriate Usage

The Sunny Boy is a PV inverter which converts the DC current of a PV generator to AC current and

feeds it into the public grid.

Principle of a PV system with this Sunny Boy

The Sunny Boy may only be operated with PV generators (modules and cabling) of protection class

II. Do not connect any sources of energy other than PV modules to the Sunny Boy.

PV modules with large capacities relative to ground, such as thin-film modules with cells on a metallic

substrate, are only to be implemented if their coupling capacity is below 50 nF/kWp.

During grid feeding, a leakage current flows from the cells to ground. The magnitude of this current

depends on the manner in which the modules are installed and, to no small extent, on the weather

(rain, snow). This operational leakage current is not to exceed 50 mA.

When designing the PV system, ensure that the values comply with the permitted operating range of

all components at all times. The free design program "Sunny Design"

(www.SMA.de/en/SunnyDesign) will assist you. The manufacturer of the PV modules must have

approved the modules for use with this Sunny Boy unit. You must also ensure that all measures

recommended by the module manufacturer for long-term maintenance of the module properties are

taken (see also Technical Information "Module Technology", in the download area of www.SMA.de).

Input B is only available on the Sunny Boys 4000TL and 5000TL.

10 SB30TL_40TL_50TL-IEN085120 Installation Guide

Do not use the Sunny Boy for purposes other than those described here. Alternative uses,

modifications to the Sunny Boy or the installation of components not expressly recommended or sold

by SMA Solar Technology invalidates the warranty claims and operation permission.

Authorized Countries

The Sunny Boys 3000TL / 4000TL / 5000TL meet, with the corresponding settings, the requirements

of the following standards and guidelines (as at 12/2008):

• VDE 0126-1-1 (02.2006)

• DK 5940 Ed. 2.2 (02.2006) (Certification of Sunny Boy 3000TL still in process)

• RD 1663/2000 (2000)

• PPC (06.2006)

• AS4777 (2005)

• EN 50438 (12.2007)

Upon request, SMA Solar Technology can set network parameters in-house according to customer

specifications for other countries / installation locations, once these have been tested by SMA Solar

Technology.

You can subsequently make adjustments via changes to the software parameters using relevant

communications products (e.g. Sunny Data Control). For this, however, a personal password is

required, which you can receive from the SMA Serviceline upon request.
