Solis NO-Grid: No Grid Detected
NO-Grid (code 1015) means your Solis cannot detect the utility grid, so it stops exporting and waits. Most of the time this is not a fault: it is a power cut or a tripped breaker on the AC side. When mains power returns, NO-Grid normally clears by itself.
Grid, wiring, or inverter?
- A utility outage. Check whether the rest of the house has power. If the whole place is out, it is a grid cut, just wait.
- A tripped breaker or open isolator on the AC line between the inverter and the meter.
- A loose AC connection at the inverter or board.
How to check it safely
- Is there a power cut? Look at the rest of the house. If the grid is down, NO-Grid clears when power returns. Nothing to fix.
- Check the AC breaker. Find the breaker between the inverter and the grid and make sure it is on; reset it if it tripped.
- Confirm the main supply has power.
- Allow the reconnection delay. After power returns, the inverter waits a short, standards-required time before it comes back online. This pause is normal.
- Grid present but NO-Grid stays? Power-cycle once. If it still won't connect, the AC connection may need an installer's look.
Quick decision flowchart
NO-Grid appears
↓ is the rest of the house also without power?
✅ Yes, whole house out → grid cut. Wait; it clears when power returns.
❌ No, house has power → check the AC breaker to the inverter.

FAQ
NO-Grid shows but my house has power.
The inverter sees the grid only through its own AC connection. If a breaker on that line is off or a connection is loose, it reads "no grid" even though the house is powered. Check that breaker first.
How long until it clears after power returns?
Grid-tied inverters wait a short, standards-required reconnection delay (often a few minutes) once the grid is stable. A brief wait is normal.
