The Problem

GoodWe error 02ETU: AFCI-fault

GoodWe alarm 02ETU usually indicates a fault with the inverter’s AFCI (Arc-Fault Circuit Interrupter) protection system. This can occur if the DC connectors are loose, improperly connected, the wrong model is used, or an internal component of the inverter is faulty.

This alarm is a safety mechanism designed to detect potential arc faults in the DC circuitry and prevent fire or electrical hazards. It may also appear intermittently due to external factors, such as magnetic interference.

The Solution

Contact e-Solar for professional inverter advice

If the alarm occurs, power off the DC switch before inspecting the connections. Ensure that the DC connectors are correctly installed and compatible with the inverter model. After powering the system back on, e-Solar can verify the DC wiring, confirm the integrity of the AFCI system, and check for any internal inverter faults.

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 to service the internal components yourself. If the issue persists, a qualified technician may need to check the DC wiring, connections, and AFCI circuitry to ensure the system is safe.
