GeneratorVoltageImbalance OR GeneratorComBusPhaseDifferenceOORGenerator was overloaded.Generator breaker in IQ System Controller tripped, and the generator is disconnected.The system will try to reconnect the generator in 5 minutes. You should: • Open IQ System Controller door, turn off the generator breaker and turn it on again. (When you open IQ System Controller, the generator breaker lever will not be in ON position) • Ensure you do not overload the system while the generator is running.

GeneratorStartFailedGenerator not startingThe generator does not start as selected in user preferences.Check if the generator 2-wire start/stop wiring to IQ System Controller is loose. Check whether the generator breaker at the unit was tripped (if so turn the breaker off and then on. Also switch the controller to the auto position), whether the generator is out of fuel, or the starting battery of the generator was dead. Contact your installer or Enphase customer support if the problem persists.
