What it means

The manual says: DCV OVP Fault - DCV EPS (off-grid) overvoltage protection fault.

Part involved: Backup/EPS output overload.

Likely causes:

  • EPS output overvoltage.

Is it safe?

Does the inverter stop?Partly
SeverityFault — needs a manual reset once the cause is fixed

The inverter keeps running with some functions stopped.

Resetting itself: brand-dependent.

Manual reset: reduce load then restart.

What you can check

  • Read and note the exact code and time from the inverter display or app (screenshot).
  • During a power cut, switch off large loads (kettle, oven, heaters) on backup circuits.
  • Where the SolaX manual says 'press the ESC key to restart the inverter', a homeowner can do that on the display. Steps that say 'disconnect PV+/PV-/battery' are for the installer only.

What the engineer will check

  • Check backup circuit design vs inverter EPS rating.
  • Check for inrush/non-linear loads.

Who to ask for: Battery installer.

Certification: Electrician competent in electrical energy storage (BS 7671 Chapter 57; IET Code of Practice for Electrical Energy Storage Systems), ideally the MCS battery installer (MIS 3012); brand-approved installer to keep warranty.
