c3 drafted · lead Abnormal PV input

review note: support check: partial - 'PV High Current Low Voltage Fault' indicates an abnormal PV input condition, but the passage doesn't call it abnormal PV…

c4 drafted · lead Inverter restart

c5 drafted · lead Contact manufacturer service

has_production_effect

c6 drafted · lead Trip (production stops)

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

review note: support check: partial - No passage states Fault5000 stops production; the Protection table covers other codes and a restart instruction only weakly implies a trip.

has_recovery

c7 drafted · lead Manual reset (operator restarts or acknowledges)

Wait for alarm to clear, then restart; service if it persists.

review note: support check: partial - Row says wait for auto-clearing, then restart the inverter and call service if it persists; the classification as manual reset…
