Hello Drake,

The 5 minute delay is only required in the event of an AC grid fault.
This would only be an issue if you cycled the AC power and the inverter started in less than 5 minutes.

Sincere regards,

Hello Wrenches,

I was told by SMA tech support that no delay is required when an inverter starts up, so long as the AC was turned on before the DC. I saw their inverter go to full power with the green light going solid while the timer was still counting down. Is this, or is this not a UL issue?

Thanks,

Drake
