Vac-Bfr/Vac-Srr

AC Grid Voltage Outside Allowable Range

SMA · SUNNY BOY 5000US-8000US Solar Inverter

What does Vac-Bfr/Vac-Srr mean?

The AC grid voltage has exceeded or fallen below the allowable operating range for the Sunny Boy SB50US-80US-IUS094030. This can also be caused by a disconnected grid or a disconnected AC cable. The inverter assumes a public grid outage and disconnects to prevent islanding. 'Bfr' and 'Srr' are internal processor messages.

Common Causes

  • AC grid voltage exceeding the allowed upper limit (>Vac Max).
  • AC grid voltage falling below the allowed lower limit (<Vac Min).
  • Disconnected public grid.
  • Disconnected AC cable to the grid.
  • Rapid change in grid voltage.
