Riso event
A Riso event indicates an insulation resistance fault (Riso = Resistance of insulation) detected between a PV system’s active conductors and ground. It’s a common safety-related alarm in solar installations.
What triggers it?
-
Moisture ingress in connectors, junction boxes, or cables
-
Damaged cable insulation
-
Ground faults or wiring defects
Impact
-
May shut down the inverter for safety
-
Can lead to loss of production or delayed grid injection
