Felicity inverter error 77 (F77)

PV Insulation Impedance fault

Also displayed as F77 on some models.

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

IVGM5KL-P1G1

InverterFault

Also applies to:IVGM6KL-P1G1IVGM7K6L-P1G1IVGM8KL-P1G1

What it means

PV Insulation Impedance faultPV insulation impedance is too low.

Cause: The pre-start insulation test measured PV-array-to-ground resistance below the safe threshold — usually damaged cable insulation, moisture in connectors, or a missing PE connection.

How to fix it

  1. Check the connection of PV panels and inverter is firmly and correctly
  2. Check whether the PE cable of inverter is connected to ground
  3. Seek help from us, if can not go back to normal state.

InverterFault

What it means

PV Insulation Impedance faultThe insulation of the PV string is abnormal.

Cause: A fault has been detected in the PV input stage — usually a short, ground fault, or isolation failure between the PV array and the inverter chassis. Wet connectors, damaged cable insulation, or moisture in a junction box are common causes.

How to fix it

  1. Disconnect the PV strings and measure insulation resistance between PV+ and ground, PV- and ground, and PV+ to PV-.
  2. Any resistance below 1 MΩ indicates moisture or damaged insulation.
  3. Inspect MC4 connectors for water ingress.
  4. Reconnect each string one at a time to isolate the faulty string.
