Growatt Warning 21 warning: PV power insufficient
Keep an eye on it
Urgency: low
What it means
The panels aren't producing enough power right now. Cloudy weather or dusty panels are the usual reasons.
Likely causes
- Cloudy or rainy weather
- Dusty or dirty panels
- Shading
What you can safely check
- Compare with the weather – heavy cloud or rain lowers solar output.
- Rinse dusty panels with a garden hose while standing on the ground.
When to call a pro
If it doesn't clear on its own, happens often, or comes with burning smells, heat or noise, call a qualified installer.
Solar systems carry dangerous voltages. Only do the safe checks listed. If unsure, call a pro.
