Risk level

High

Professional inspection is recommended.

Urgency

Immediate

Quick answer

Fronius defines event 301 as: The inverter detected AC overcurrent and briefly interrupted feed-in. The useful next discriminator is AC current by phase, export power and the event sequence. Preserve the event before any reset.

Safety first

Stop and check this first

  • Do not change grid-code, voltage or frequency protection settings without installer and grid-operator authorization. Do not measure live boards yourself.

Safe checks you can perform

  • Preserve the exact event context
  • Collect one safe discriminator
  • Respect the electrical stop point

Leave these tasks to a qualified professional

  • Do not attempt this professional task: Measured handoff for Fronius 301

What a technician must be able to justify

A technician is coming

These are the steps they must carry out and show you. Tick them as they work: if steps are skipped, do not accept a part swap.

These are not instructions for opening or handling the equipment yourself. They are the checks that should support a technical conclusion.

  1. Measured handoff for Fronius 301

    What they doA qualified electrician should log phase voltages, frequency and connection-point impedance under the same export condition, then compare them with the active grid code and utility limits.

Before accepting a part or repair

Nothing has been shown yet. Do not accept a part swap based on the code alone.

Checks and evidence, step by step

Follow the documented order. An error code identifies the affected system, but it does not prove by itself which part has failed.

  1. 1

    Preserve the exact event context

    No special tools

    Procedure

    Save event 301, timestamp, inverter model/serial, firmware, red-LED state, affected phase/string, power and weather before clearing anything.

    Do not change grid-code, voltage or frequency protection settings without installer and grid-operator authorization. Do not measure live boards yourself.

  2. 2

    Collect one safe discriminator

    No special tools

    Procedure

    From the monitoring interface and a safe location, note whether other premises lost power and whether the event repeats at a particular export level or time. Record AC current by phase, export power and the event sequence; do not change multiple parameters or circuits at once.

    Do not change grid-code, voltage or frequency protection settings without installer and grid-operator authorization. Do not measure live boards yourself.

  3. 3

    Respect the electrical stop point

    No special tools

    Procedure

    If supply to the site is abnormal, involve the grid operator; if only the inverter repeats the event, a qualified electrician must measure at the connection point.

    Do not change grid-code, voltage or frequency protection settings without installer and grid-operator authorization. Do not measure live boards yourself.

What it means

Official meaning: The inverter detected AC overcurrent and briefly interrupted feed-in. Decision boundary: capture AC current by phase, export power and the event sequence. A qualified electrician should log phase voltages, frequency and connection-point impedance under the same export condition, then compare them with the active grid code and utility limits.

Warnings and stop conditions

  • Highsource verified

    Do not change grid-code, voltage or frequency protection settings without installer and grid-operator authorization. Do not measure live boards yourself.

Symptoms and causes

Probable causes · in order

  • What the Fronius event establishesConfirmed

    The official Fronius Symo / Eco manual defines event 301: The inverter detected AC overcurrent and briefly interrupted feed-in.

    Evidence: Fronius Symo / Eco status diagnostics

  • The observation that changes the next branchPossible

    Capture AC current by phase, export power and the event sequence. If supply to the site is abnormal, involve the grid operator; if only the inverter repeats the event, a qualified electrician must measure at the connection point.
