Service work means opening live-capable equipment someone else installed. The order below keeps you safe and your tickets clean.

Before your first ticket

1

Isolation and Shutdown — word for word

Isolation & Shutdown. Both platforms power OFF battery-first and require a discharge wait before covers open .
2

Know what you may not touch

Authorized-Only Actions — settings and internals that are Kent-service or partner-gated.
3

Environment pages

Half of all “inverter faults” in summer are siting faults. Learn to spot them from Heat, Sun & Ventilation.

Troubleshooting flows

Symptom-based flows (battery not charging, backup not working, comm faults and more) are live in Troubleshooting — work them alongside the platform display codes and the checklists.

Every service visit, in order

  1. Talk, then look. Get the symptom history and any display message from the customer first.
  2. Photograph the display before changing anything — the code screen is evidence.
  3. Isolate correctly if you must open anything — never shortcut the discharge wait.
  4. Verify siting — clearances, sun, glands — while you are there; log deviations.
  5. Record what you changed — every setting before/after, in the ticket.

Common mistakes

  • Restarting repeatedly to “clear” a fault without reading the code — you erase the evidence.
  • Fixing the symptom and leaving the cause (a cooked, sun-blasted unit will fault again).
  • Adjusting grid-protection settings to stop nuisance trips — those settings move only with utility consent and Kent instruction .
