GoodWe has no registration deadline, but its 10 year term is conditional. The inverter has to be connected to the SEMS portal and uploading generation data, and a hybrid running a Lynx battery needs both serials registered. Miss either and the term is five years instead of ten, and nobody tells you.

What has to stay true

These are not deadlines. They are things that have to be true for the full term to hold, mostly with no clock attached, and nothing tells you when one stops being true.

Terms by product line

Parts and labour are separate covers and they are rarely the same length. The models column is what the nameplate will say.

What it pays for labour

The part is covered. The truck roll usually is not, and that is the number that decides whether a claim is worth filing.

1 year of labour cover

The ET Series carries 12 months of labour cover alongside 10 years of parts.

Register: how it works

GoodWe warranty questions

Why would a GoodWe warranty be 5 years instead of 10?

Because the 10 year term is conditional on the inverter being connected to the SEMS portal with generation data uploading, and on both serials being registered where a Lynx battery is fitted. Without those, the term is five years. There is no notification when it happens.

Is there a deadline for registering a GoodWe inverter?

No dated deadline. What there is instead is a live condition: the SEMS connection has to exist and keep working. That is why this is tracked as a condition to confirm rather than a countdown.

What breaks a GoodWe SEMS connection?

Anything that takes the inverter off the homeowner's network, which is usually a router change or a new wifi password. The warranty consequence is invisible from the roof, so it is worth checking on any service visit.
