20Fault

Felicity inverter error 20 (F20)

Battery SOC Low Alarm

Also displayed as F20 on some models.

Faultthe inverter cuts its output and the red LED stays solid until the fault is cleared.

The exact meaning depends on your model:

IVGM5KL-P1G1

InverterFault

Also applies to:IVGM6KL-P1G1IVGM7K6L-P1G1IVGM8KL-P1G1

What it means

Battery SOC Low AlarmBattery SOC is too low, battery should be recharged.

Cause: The battery's reported state of charge has dropped to the low-SOC alarm threshold, so there is little usable energy left in the pack.

How to fix it

Recharge the battery.

What it means

Input output reverse

Cause: The AC input and output wiring are swapped — the inverter detects source voltage on its output terminals, so it refuses to run until the connections are corrected.

How to fix it

Confirm that the input and output wiring is correct.

IVEM 6048

InverterFault

Also applies to:IVEM6048

What it means

Over temperature happen at inverter circuit

Cause: The temperature of internal inverter component is over the limitation.

How to fix it

Check whether the air flow of the unit is blocked or whether the ambient temperature is too high.

InverterCritical

What it means

Input output reverseInput and output wiring is reversed.

Cause: The AC input and output wiring are swapped — the inverter detects source voltage on its output terminals, so it refuses to run until the connections are corrected.

How to fix it

Confirm that the input and output wiring is correct.

T-REX-50KHP3G01

InverterFault

What it means

Battery 1 software overcurrent faultBattery 1 current is too large, check the battery charge and discharge power.

Cause: The control firmware measured battery 1 current above the protection limit — charge or discharge power beyond what that battery channel is rated for.

How to fix it

  1. Power down the inverter, wait 5 minutes for capacitors to discharge, then restart.
  2. If the fault recurs immediately or repeatedly, record the exact code and contact your installer or the manufacturer's service line.

LUX-S-1600LG01

BatteryFault

What it means

Output overcurrentFault event: total output overcurrent condition.

Cause: Total output current exceeded the protection limit — the connected loads exceed the unit's rating, or the output wiring has a short.

How to fix it

  1. Restart the unit.
  2. If the error persists, contact the repair center.
