Decoded

Reports DC overvoltage; look at PV array; confirm with DC voltage measurement; do: inverter restart, contact manufacturer service.

What can be behind DC overvoltage

Failure modes that present as the reported condition, and the tests that tell them apart.

has_production_effect

c8 drafted · lead Trip (production stops)

Protection fault; restart required after the alarm clears implies the inverter stopped.

review note: support check: partial - Restart is required, implying a stop, but a trip is not explicitly stated.

has_recovery

c9 drafted · lead Manual reset (operator restarts or acknowledges)

Wait for alarm to clear, then restart; if persistent, check open-circuit PV voltage, then service.
