The Problem

Growatt error 200: AFCI fault

Growatt error code 200 usually means the inverter has detected an AFCI fault. AFCI stands for arc fault circuit interrupter, which is a safety function designed to detect possible electrical arcing within the solar system.

When this happens, the inverter may stop producing power or disconnect from the system as a safety response.

This type of fault may be linked to loose connections, damaged DC cabling, faulty panel terminals, moisture ingress, connector issues, storm damage or another fault on the solar panel side of the system.

The Solution

Book a solar inverter check with e-Solar

If Growatt error code 200 appears once and clears after a restart, the inverter may have detected a temporary condition. However, AFCI faults should not be ignored if they keep returning.

If the code keeps appearing, your solar output has dropped, or the inverter has stopped operating normally, it is worth having the system checked.

Our Perth solar experts can inspect your inverter, panel terminals, DC cabling, connectors, isolators and solar array to help determine whether the issue is linked to arcing risk, loose connections, damaged wiring 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 check panel terminals, DC cabling or inverter internals yourself. If the issue is persistent, a qualified technician may need to inspect the DC side of the system and confirm whether it is safe to restart normal operation.
