Risk level

Critical

Stop using the equipment and contact a professional.

Urgency

Immediate

Quick answer

Fronius defines event 309 as: DC input voltage on MPPT 1 is too high. The useful next discriminator is DC voltage on the named MPPT, string layout and design maximum. Preserve the event before any reset.

Safety first

What to do now

  • Preserve the exact event context

    Save event 309, timestamp, inverter model/serial, firmware, red-LED state, affected phase/string, power and weather before clearing anything.

  • Collect one safe discriminator

    Record the full event sequence, firmware and LED state. Do not open the inverter or repeat restarts; export diagnostics if the UI allows it. Record DC voltage on the named MPPT, string layout and design maximum; do not change multiple parameters or circuits at once.

  • Respect the electrical stop point

    If the red LED or event returns, stop cycling power and send the diagnostic package to Fronius or a qualified installer.

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.

What it means

Official meaning: DC input voltage on MPPT 1 is too high. Decision boundary: capture DC voltage on the named MPPT, string layout and design maximum. Export diagnostics, confirm firmware and event sequence, then test the named internal monitoring path through Fronius service procedures before considering hardware replacement.

Warnings and stop conditions

  • Criticalsource verified

    The inverter contains hazardous stored and live energy. Do not open it or bypass internal protection.
