What it means

The manual says: Low DC generatrix voltage protection.

Likely causes:

  • Power supply fault.
  • main board, inverter board (IGBT) or rectifier bridge fault.

Is it safe?

Switch the heat pump off at its isolator and call an engineer.

Does the heat pump stop?Not stated
Engineer needed?Yes

The manual does not say whether the heat pump stops.

What you can check

  • Read and note the exact code shown on the controller display.
  • Check the heat pump's breaker/isolator at the consumer unit is on.
  • If the breaker has tripped or trips again, leave the unit off and call an engineer; do not keep resetting it.

What the engineer will check

  • Power supply fault.
  • main board, inverter board (IGBT) or rectifier bridge fault.
