1. Error Overview


Definition: This error indicates that the generator is reporting an internal power issue.


2. Symptom Checklist

  • E151 is displayed on the iPM generator and external controllers.


3. Potential Root Causes

  • Occurs when the input voltage falls below 200 Volts, preventing proper power factor correction.
  • There is a missing phase to the power connection of the genertor.
  • If the input voltage is stable and the error persists, an internal failure on the iPM Power Board may be the cause. 

  • In rare cases, some iPM 100 and iPM 200 generators may falsely report E17 error due to a software limitation.


4. Step-by-Step Resolution

  • Check main power of the generator is at the correct voltage.
  • Check that each phase is present to the main power. 
  • Update PU firmware in the generator

5. Escalation

  • If the above resolutions did not solve you issue please reach out to our support team. Replacement parts will be needed to resolve this issue.
