The Problem

Solis warning message: Gird has surge

The Solis warning message Surge Alarm usually means the inverter has detected a surge event on the grid side of the system.

This warning may appear as:

  • Surge Alarm

A surge alarm may not always stop the inverter from operating, but it should still be monitored. Surge events can occur due to grid disturbances, switching events, storm activity, nearby electrical equipment or wider network conditions.

If the warning appears repeatedly, it may indicate that the inverter or system protection needs to be checked.

The Solution

Let e-Solar check your inverter and surge protection

If the warning appears once and your system continues operating normally, it may have been a temporary grid event.

If the Surge Alarm warning keeps returning, your solar production has dropped or other fault messages appear, it is worth having the system checked. Our Perth-based solar team can inspect the inverter and help determine whether the issue is linked to grid surge events, AC surge protection, inverter protection components or wider network conditions.

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 switchboard yourself. If the warning is persistent, a qualified technician may need to assess the inverter, AC-side protection and site conditions to confirm the system is operating safely.
