When the solar panels or DC cables and joints are damaged or the insulation layer is aging, the problem of low insulation resistance is easy to occur. In this article we take a look at what these faults are, the possible causes and what steps are taken to identify and resolve them. All articles What are. . The inverter will detect the insulation resistance of the positive & negative input to earth before connecting to grid, if the resistance falls below the setpoint, the inverter will not connect to grid and indicate “PV Isolation low” on LCD display. Such a fault is also called an isolation fault.
