For Safety Cutoff on the AC side
Relays are used for safety cutoff on the grid (power network). The relay must cutoff the circuit to prevent abnormal currents that occur from affecting the commercial power supply.
Power relays are required as safety measures to protect the power supply system.
For operation in stand-alone mode
Relay contacts will be ON during a power outage and use of the stand-alone function is possible. The relays are used for stand-alone mode.

relay
HE-V (2a 20 A 1,000 V DC*)
High-voltage cutoff relay capable of simultaneously cutting off the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals by serially connecting the 1 Form A contact. Up to 1,000V DC cutoff

* 1,000 V DC is the maximum allowable voltage when each 1 Form A contact is connected in series. The rating is 800 V DC.

● When something shades the solar panels or a defect occurs, the total power generation efficiency of the system decreases. In such cases, the total power generation efficiency can be maintained by bypassing low-efficiency panels or cutting off strings using relays.
● In case of a disaster, such as fire, system safety can be maintained by shorting each solar panel. (E.g. electrical shock prevention of firefighters)
● Remote control is possible for maintenance work, reducing maintenance costs.
