Description
Utilizing proprietary detection techniques, the AERL EarthGuard Insulation Monitoring Device simultaneously monitors the unearthed PV Array (60 – 300V) and Battery Storage System (48/120V) for conductor insulation degradation.
Installed on the battery bus, the EarthGuard monitoring device satisfies the earth fault detection requirements of both AS/NZS 5033:2014 & AS/NZS 5139:2019 with onboard audio/visual alarms and an alarm relay output for external fault indication.
Featuring support for full integration with AERL’s CoolMax SRX charge controller range, EarthGuard can be utilized in an integrated arrangement or as a standalone device for use with approved third-party controllers, power conversion equipment
and battery systems.

The AERL EarthGuard Ground Fault Detection – EG-600 is a standalone insulation monitoring device designed for integration with approved third-party controllers, power conversion equipment and battery systems. Using proprietary detection techniques, the EG-600 continuously monitors DC circuits for insulation degradation and earth faults.
Capable of monitoring up to two separate DC circuits simultaneously, the EarthGuard EG-600 supports PV arrays and battery systems operating between 20 and 600V DC. It is ideally suited for modern battery energy storage systems and solar installations requiring compliance with Australian safety standards.
