Sunsynk F26 fault: DC busbar unbalanced

Keep an eye on it
Urgency: low

What it means

On split-phase systems the load on the two phases is very uneven, so the inverter's internal DC bus became unbalanced. Spreading the heavy loads usually fixes it.

Likely causes

  • Big load difference between phases
  • One very heavy appliance on one phase

What you can safely check

  1. Switch off or unplug heavy appliances (kettle, heater, geyser, pool pump) on the backup circuits.
  2. Restart the inverter once using its documented switch-off and switch-on procedure.
  3. If it keeps coming back, stop and call a qualified installer.

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.

Sunsynk inverters are built on the Deye platform and use the same F-codes. Check your Sunsynk manual if anything differs.
