On submitting FIT meter readings to the electric supplier, notification was received that there was a discrepancy between the most recent readings and those previously submitted. On checking, it was found that there was a big discrepancy between the FIT meter fitted by the solar contractor (now gone bust) when compared to the readout obtained at the Samil invertor. A contractor was brought in, who confirmed the meter was faulty. They supplied and fitted a replacement meter. On completion; everything was accepted as being in working order i.e. readings taken at the new meter and compared with the invertor showed that reading where in sync.
However, days later the invertor was found to be displaying an error message "Isolation Fault". Pressing the invertor reset button still produced the same error message. Attempts to get the contractor to return have not been successful. Now a strange thing occurred. Pressing the reset button (something done on numerous occasions without success)the error message cleared and generation took place and continued all day. Unfortunately the following morning generation had stopped, the error message reappeared until the reset button is pressed. This procedure has to be repeated daily.
Any suggestion as to the cause of this problem and how it can be cured.
