1.3 Electrical Safety

Grounding
● For the equipment that needs to be grounded, install the ground cable first
when installing the equipment and remove the ground cable last when
removing the equipment.
● Do not damage the ground conductor.
● Do not operate the equipment in the absence of a properly installed ground
conductor.
● Ensure that the equipment is connected permanently to the protective
ground. Before operating the equipment, check its electrical connection to
ensure that it is securely grounded.

General Requirements

DANGER

Before connecting cables, ensure that the equipment is intact. Otherwise, electric
shocks or fire may occur.

● Ensure that all electrical connections comply with local electrical standards.
● Ensure that the cables you prepared meet local regulations.

AC and DC Power

DANGER

Do not connect or disconnect power cables with power on. Transient contact
between the core of the power cable and the conductor will generate electric arcs
or sparks, which may cause fire or personal injury.

● Before making electrical connections, switch off the disconnector on the

upstream device to cut off the power supply if people may contact energized
components.
● Before connecting a power cable, check that the label on the power cable is
correct.
● If the equipment has multiple inputs, disconnect all the inputs before
operating the equipment.

Cabling
● When routing cables, ensure that a distance of at least 30 mm exists between
the cables and heat-generating components or areas. This prevents damage
to the insulation layer of the cables.

Issue 09 (2021-02-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 3

NOTICE

● If the SmartLogger uses an AC power cable for communication, an MCB or a

knife fuse switch needs to be installed to prevent device damage in the case of
short circuits.
● If the SmartLogger communicates with an inverter over an AC power cable,
both the cable from the knife switch to the MCB and the cable from the busbar
to the knife switch need to be prepared by the customer. You are advised to use
a three-core multi-wire outdoor armor cable with a cross-sectional area of 10
mm2 for each core wire. When the rated AC voltage on the low-voltage side of
the box-type transformer is less than or equal to 500 V, the operating voltage
to the ground of the AC power cable should be greater than or equal to 600 V.
When the rated AC voltage on the low-voltage side of the box-type transformer
is greater than 500 V and less than or equal to 800 V, the operating voltage to
the ground of the AC power cable should be greater than or equal to 1000 V.
● The SmartLogger can connect to the inverter over an RS485 communications
cable or AC power cable. If RS485 is used, there is no need to connect an AC
power cable between the SmartLogger and the MCB in the scenario without a
smart array controller.
● The power cable delivered with the SmartLogger is 1 m long, the power
adapter cable is 1.5 m long, the network cable is 2.2 m long, and the AC power
cable is 1.5 m long. Reserve the installation positions for components based on
the cable lengths.

PV String Access Detection

● PV string access detection applies to large-scale commercial ground PV plants
with PV strings facing the same direction.
● In AC or DC power limiting scenarios:
– If the PV string access type has not been identified, PV string access type
will be displayed as Disconnection. The PV string access type can be
identified only when the solar inverters restore to the non-power limiting
state and the current of all connected PV strings reaches the startup
current.
– If the PV string access type has been identified, when a certain PV string
connected to the 2-in-1 terminals is lost, no alarm will be generated. If a
certain PV string connected to the 2-in-1 terminals is restored, the access
type cannot be identified. You can determine whether both 2-in-1 PV
strings are restored only when the PV string current reaches Startup
current for 2-in-1 detection.
● After setting the parameters, you can go to the Running Info. tab page to
check whether the PV string connection status is normal.

of PV plants, which may cause user data breach and control permission theft. Therefore,
exercise caution when using this protocol. Users are liable for any loss caused by the use
of this protocol to connect to a third-party management system (non-secure protocol).
Users are advised to take measures at the PV plant level to reduce security risks, or use
Huawei management system to mitigate the risks.
● To use this function, set Link setting to Enable(Limited) or Enable(Unlimited). If you

● FTP is a universal standard protocol without any security authentication
mechanism. Data transmitted by FTP is not encrypted. To reduce network
security risks, the IP address of the connected third-party FTP server is left
blank by default. This protocol can transmit the running data of PV plants,
which may cause user data breach. Therefore, exercise caution when using
this protocol. Users are liable for any loss caused by the enabling of the FTP
protocol (non-secure protocol). Users are advised to take measures at the PV
plant level to reduce security risks, or use Huawei management system to
mitigate the risks.
● The FTP function is used to access a third-party NMS. The SmartLogger can
report the configuration information and running data of the managed plant
system through the FTP. A third-party NMS can access Huawei devices with
proper configurations.
Because of permission restriction, log in as Advanced User. Choose Settings >
FTP to access the target page.

7.7.4 Port Settings

7.7.4.1 Setting DO Parameters

Context
The SmartLogger provides three DO ports. Connect one DC power cable of the 3G
router to one of the DO ports, and power on and off the wireless module by
disconnecting and connecting the DO dry contact to control the reset of the 3G
router.
Considering the restrictions on the current that can pass through the DO port of
the SmartLogger, you need to determine the number of DO ports to be used for
the control based on the maximum power supply current of the 3G router (the
maximum power supply current can be calculated based on the maximum power
consumption and DC power supply voltage). When the power supply current is
less than 0.5 A and the voltage is lower than 12 V, use one DO port.

Connecting a 3G Router over a DO Port

When connecting a 3G router, cut off one DC power cable of the router, and
connect the cable to a DO port of the SmartLogger.

maximum power specified for 12:00:00.

8.1.4 Remote Communication Scheduling

The NMS or independent power adjustment device sends scheduling commands
over the communications port that works with Modbus-TCP or IEC104, without the
need of user configuration or operation. The SmartLogger can automatically
switch between scheduling modes and send scheduling commands.

Parameter Description

Active power control Set this parameter to Remote communication

mode scheduling.
The SmartLogger receives the scheduling commands
from the upper NMS, resolves the commands for the
inverters, and then sends the commands to all
connected inverters.
Based on the Remote communication scheduling
priority principle, the SmartLogger automatically
changes Active power control mode to Remote
communication scheduling after receiving a
scheduling command from the upper NMS.

Schedule strategy Supports Disable, Strategy 1, and Strategy 2.

● Disable: The SmartLogger controls the inverter to
work at full load and will not receive scheduling
commands from the NMS.
● Strategy 1: Open-loop scheduling policy. That is,
the SmartLogger evenly allocates the power value
from the scheduling device and delivers the
average values to each inverter, which then
operates with the specific power. The adjustment
value delivered by the SmartLogger is constant.
After you set Adjustment coefficient, the power
value is multiplied by the configured coefficient
and then delivered to the inverter.
● Strategy 2: This function is customized for a single
site. Set Overshoot, Adjustment period, and
Adjustment deadband based on the site
scheduling requirements.

10 FAQ

10.1 How Do I Set Anti-crosstalk Parameters?

When MBUS is used for communication between the SmartLogger and the
inverter, anti-crosstalk parameters must be set in the following scenarios:
● The SmartLogger detects inverters of another subarray.
● The SmartLogger detects more inverters than those belonging to the
corresponding subarray, while an adjacent SmartLogger detects fewer
inverters than those belonging to the corresponding subarray.
● The AC power cables for different transformer stations are routed along the
same trench or cable trough.
● The voltage on the high-voltage side of the transformer station is 10 kV.
● There are multiple windings on the low-voltage side of the multi-split
transformer station, such as the dual-split transformer station.
● Two or more SmartMBUSs are installed on the low-voltage side of the
transformer station.
NOTE

After replacing or adding a device such as an inverter, a SmartLogger, or a SmartMBUS in a

subarray, you need to reset the anti-crosstalk parameters of the device.

Setting Anti-crosstalk Parameters Through an SN List

Step 1 Collect the SNs of the inverters in the subarray corresponding to the SmartLogger.
Step 2 Log in to the SmartLogger as Advanced User and choose Monitoring > MBUS >
Networking Settings.
Step 3 On the SN list tab page, click Template and fill in the collected SNs based on the
template.
Step 4 Click Import to import the SN list to the SmartLogger.

SPD

A.1 Installing the RS485 signal SPD

● If the SmartLogger2000-10/10-B/11-B needs to connect to an outdoor device
over a COM port, you are advised to connect an RS485 signal SPD between
the SmartLogger and the device to strengthen the surge protection capability.
● Each RS485 signal SPD can connect to two COM ports. Each SmartLogger can
be configured with a maximum of three RS485 signal SPDs.
● For a smart array controller factory-installed with the
SmartLogger2000-10/10-B/11-B, the RS485 signal SPD has been installed
before delivery. In a non-smart array controller, the RS485 signal SPD can be
mounted on a guide rail.
NOTE

When determining the installation position, verify that the linear distance between the
RS485 signal SPD and the SmartLogger is not greater than 500 mm.

Prerequisites
● Prepare an RS485 signal SPD. The recommended model is PowerSA-5KA-15V
and can be purchased from Huawei.
● To install an RS485 signal SPD on a guide rail, prepare a 35 mm wide
standard guide rail that complies with the specifications shown in Figure A-1.
The recommended valid guide rail length is 80 mm or greater.

Prerequisites
● Prepare a ground cable. Recommended: outdoor copper-core cable with a
cross-sectional area of 4 mm2 or 12 AWG
● Prepare a communications cable, for example, a two-core or multi-core cable
with a cross-sectional area of 0.5–2.5 mm2.

Context
NOTE

The way of connecting two to three RS485 signal SPDs is the same as the way of
connecting one RS485 signal SPD.

One RS485 signal SPD provides two RS485 surge protection ports.

NOTE

● Protection ports connect to the COM ports on the SmartLogger. Port 4 is not connected.
● Surge ports connect to the RS485 ports on other devices. Port 3 is the ground port.
● Protection ports and surge ports must not be confused.
● One RS485 signal SPD can protect two COM ports.
● Protection ports 2 and 6 and surge ports 1 and 5 form an RS485 surge protection port
for protecting one COM port. Protection ports 8 and 12 and surge ports 7 and 11 form
another RS485 surge protection port for protecting another COM port.
● An RS485 signal SPD port supports cables with a maximum cross-sectional area of 2.5
mm2. If devices need to be connected to this port in parallel, use cables with a cross-
sectional area of 1 mm2, and connect not more than two cables to the same port.

Procedure
Connect the PE cable.
1 Remove 8 mm of the insulation layer from the PE cable using a wire stripper.
2 Insert the bare core wire into port 3 on the RS485 signal SPD, and secure the
cable.

NOTE

– Connect the other end of the PE cable to the ground bar.

– Recommended: To enhance the corrosion resistance of a ground terminal, silica gel
or paint might be needed.

----End
Connect the communications cable.
1 Connect one end of the cable to the COM port on the SmartLogger. For
details, see 4.3 Connecting Cables to the Terminal Block on the COM Port.
2 Insert the bare core wire at the other end into a protection port on the RS485
signal SPD, and secure the cable.
