Alarm 2012String Current Backfeed
Name in the manufacturer's documentation (fault list): String Current Backfeed
[1]
In plain words (editorial)
Current is flowing backwards into a PV string. The manual names a string with only a few PV modules in series, or reverse polarity in the string; shading and the string's open-circuit voltage are also checked.
When to call a service technician: Have your installer check the string configuration and polarity.
