 ==== Err 17 - Controller overheated despite reduced output current ====
 This error will auto-reset after charger has cooled down.

 ==== Err 43 - Inverter shutdown (Ground Fault) ====
 The voltage difference between Neutral and Ground is too high.
-Possible causes:
-  * The ground wire in the installation is not ok or not connected (grid connected Multi using AC inputs).
+Inverter or Multi (not connected to the grid):
-  * Line and Neutral are swapped in the installation (grid connected Multi using AC inputs).
+  * The internal ground relay is activated but the voltage over the relay is too high. The relay might be damaged.
-  * The internal ground relay is activated but the voltage over the relay is too high. The relay might be damaged (stand-alone Inverter mode)
+Multi (connected to the grid):
+  * The ground wire in the installation is not present or not connected properly.
+  * Line and Neutral are swapped in the installation.
 This error will not auto-reset. Check the installation and restart the unit using the power-switch.
-==== Err 50 - Inverter overload ====
+==== Err 50, Err 52 - Inverter overload, Inverter peak current ====
 Some loads like motors or pumps draw large inrush currents in a start-up situation. In such circumstances, it is possible that the start-up current exceeds the over current trip level of the inverter. In this case the output voltage will quickly decrease to limit the output current of the inverter. If the over current trip level is continuously exceeded, the inverter will shut down: wait 30 seconds and then restart.
+The Inverter can supply more power than the nominal power level for a short time. If the time is exceed the inverter stops.
 After three restarts followed by another overload within 30 seconds of restarting, the inverter will shutdown and remain off. To restart the inverter, switch it Off, then On.

 The inverter will restart after 30 seconds. The inverter will not stay off after multiple retries.
-==== Err 52 - Inverter excessive current ====
+==== Err 53, Err 54 - Inverter output voltage ====
-If the error persists reduce the load on the AC out terminal by switching off or disconnecting appliances.
-This error will auto-restart after 30s, after 3 attempts the unit shuts down and a power-cycle is needed to restart the unit.
-==== Err 53 - Inverter dc level (internal dc rail voltage) ====
-A possible cause is that the battery needs to be charged.
-This error will auto-reset when the internal dc voltage recovers.
-==== Err 54 - Inverter ac level (output voltage not ok)  ====
 If the battery voltage is getting low and a large load is applied to the AC output the inverter is unable to maintain the proper output voltage.
-Re-charge the battery or reduce the AC loads to continue.
+Re-charge the battery or reduce the AC loads to continue operation.
-==== Err 55 - Inverter dc fail (dc on output) ====
+==== Err 57 - Inverter ac voltage on output ====
+There is already AC voltage on the AC out terminal before switching on the inverter. Check that the AC out is not connected to a mains outlet or to another inverter.
-==== Err 56 - Inverter ac fail (shape wrong) ====
+This error will not auto-reset. Check the installation and restart the unit using the power-switch.
-==== Err 57 - Inverter ac on output ====
+==== Err 55, Err 56, Err 58 - Inverter self test failed ====
-There is already AC voltage on the AC out terminal before switching on the inverter. Check if the AC out is not connected to a mains outlet or to another inverter.
+The inverter performs diagnostic tests before it activates its output. In the case that one of these tests fails an error message is displayed and the inverter does not turn on.
-This error will not auto-reset. Check the installation and restart the unit using the power-switch.
-==== Err 58 - Inverter bridge fault ====
+First try to restart the inverter, by switching it Off, and then On. If error persists the inverter is probably faulty.

 Please do report this to your Victron dealer and ask him to escalate it to Victron; as this error should never happen. Preferably include firmware version and any other specifics (VRM URL, VictronConnect screenshots or similar).
