Solar General Troubleshooting
🛠️ General Solar Troubleshooting Guide
If your solar monitoring app shows offline or you’re not seeing data, most of the time it’s just a Wi-Fi issue. Follow the steps below.
Step 1 – Is It Just Wi-Fi?
-
If your inverter has lights on and no error codes, but the app (SolisCloud, mySolarEdge, GivEnergy) shows offline, it’s usually just Wi-Fi.
This often happens if you’ve changed your broadband router or updated your Wi-Fi password.
In this case, follow the correct Wi-Fi reconnection guide for your inverter: Wifi Guides
Step 2 – Check the Inverter
Look at your inverter:
- âś… Are there any lights on the front?
- âś… Does the screen show error codes? Note them down.
⚠️ If there are no lights at all, continue to Step 3.
Step 3 – Check the Generation Meter & Fusebox
- Your generation meter (a small digital display near the inverter or fuseboard, sometimes inside a Tesla Gateway) should have numbers showing.
- If it’s blank, the system may not be receiving power.
- Check your fusebox → make sure the solar breaker/fuse is ON.
⚡ Please note: The fuse may be located in a Tesla Gateway or a mini fuseboard near your main distribution board.
Step 4 – Try a Simple Restart
Restart your inverter:
- Switch OFF the AC isolator (using the AC switch/fuse).
- Switch OFF the DC isolator (usually below the inverter).
- Wait 1 minute.
- Switch ON the DC and AC isolators again.
Also restart your broadband router.
Step 5 – Still Not Working?
If the system is still offline, please email support@energize.uk.com with the following photos:
