They are very nice inverters but have a lot of standby current. Not very efficient but very robust. If you can not return it then open it up and see what looks burned out. The component on the

DC (direct current) faults are the primary cause of fires in Solar PV systems. If you install inverters with no DC isolation or Arc detection/Management built-in, you probably have NO fire
