Huawei SUN2000 Error Code 125

Huawei PLC & VFD Critical DC Input

Model: SUN2000 | Code: 125

Applicable Systems
SUN2000

Symptoms

PV input arc fault detected. The inverter's AFCI (Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter) has detected an arc fault onthe DC side. This is a fire risk and the inverter immediately disconnects.

Possible Causes

  • Loose PV connector (MC4) causing arcing under load
  • Damaged PV cable with intermittent contact causing arc
  • Corroded PV junction box contact causing arc
  • PV module internal cell string interconnect failure causing arc

Troubleshooting Steps

  1. Step 1: Check the equipment status and fault indicators to confirm the active fault code
    Fault indicator or HMI displays code 125 as active
  2. Step 2: Verify all electrical connections, wiring harnesses, and connector seating
    All connections secure, no corrosion, loose pins, or damaged wires
  3. Step 3: Check the system diagnostic buffer or event log for detailed fault information
    Diagnostic buffer shows the specific fault cause and timestamp
  4. Step 4: Verify power supply stability and environmental conditions
    Power supply stable, environment within specifications
  5. Step 5: Restart the equipment or power-cycle the control system
    Equipment restarts and enters normal operating state
  6. Step 6: Contact manufacturer support if the fault persists after all checks
    Support provides specific troubleshooting guidance

How to Reset

To reset: 1) Identify and fix the root cause described in the fault symptoms. 2) Press RESET on the HMI or controller, or power-cycle the equipment. 3) If the fault recurs, contact manufacturer service. Caution: Document the fault code and context before resetting.
