The Problem

Fronius error 240 / 241 / 242 / 243: Arc detection

Fronius error code 240, 241, 242 or 243 usually means the inverter’s arc detection has triggered. Arc detection is a safety feature designed to help identify possible electrical arcing within the solar system.

This may happen if there is an issue with the solar panels, DC cabling, connectors, isolators or another part of the PV system. It may also appear after storm activity, water ingress, impact damage or other events that affect the solar array.

Arc detection faults should be treated seriously, especially if the code keeps returning or your system has stopped producing as expected.

The Solution

Let e-Solar check your inverter and PV system

If Fronius error code 240, 241, 242 or 243 appears, do not ignore it or attempt to inspect the panels, DC cabling or isolators yourself.

Our Perth-based solar team can inspect your inverter and PV system to help determine whether the issue is linked to panel damage, DC cabling, connectors, isolators, storm damage, moisture ingress or another system fault.

Contact e-Solar and let us know:

  • The exact error code on the screen or app
  • When the code appears
  • Whether your solar production has dropped
  • Your inverter model, if you know it

Do not open the inverter or attempt electrical testing yourself. If the issue is persistent, a qualified technician may need to inspect the DC side of the system, test the solar array and confirm whether it is safe to resume normal operation.
