General product information:

The Solar converter is a three-phase type.
The unit is providing EMC filtering at the output toward mains. The unit does not provide galvanic
separation from input to output (transformerless). The output is switched off redundant by the high
-power switching bridge and two relays. This assures that the opening of the output circuit will
also operate in case of one error.
The internal control is redundant built. It consists of Main DSP(UC20) and slave DSP(UC73).
The Main DSP(UC20) can control the relays, measures voltage, and frequency, AC current with inje
cted, insulation resistance and residual current, in addition it tests the array insulation resistance an
d the RCMU circuit before each start up.
The slave DSP(UC73) is using for detecting residual current, also can open the relays independently
and communicate with Main DSP(UC20).
The unit provides two relays in series on Line conductors. When single fault applied to one relay,
alarm anerror code in display panel, another redundant relay provides basic insulation maintained
between the PV array and the mains. All the relays are tested before starting up. Both controllers
(Main DSP(UC20), Slave DSP(UC73) can open the relays
Difference of models:
Both models have identical mechanical and electrical construction except some parameter of the
software architecture in order to control the max output power. The detailed difference as following:

Cl. Requirement - Test Result Verdict
4 UTILITY COMPATIBILITY P
The quality of power provided by the PV system for P
the on-site AC loads and for power delivered to the
utility is governed by practices and standards on
voltage, flicker, frequency, harmonics and power
factor.
Deviation from these standards represents out-of- P
bounds conditions and may require the PV system
to sense the deviation and properly disconnect from
the utility system.
4.1 Voltage, current and frequency P
The PV system AC voltage, current and frequency P
are compatible with the utility system.
4.2 Normal voltage operating range P
Utility-interconnected PV systems do not normally P
regulate voltage, they inject current into the utility.
Therefore, the voltage operating range for PV
inverters is selected as a protection function that
responds to abnormal utility conditions, not as a
voltage regulation function.
4.3 Flicker P
The operation of the PV system is not cause voltage P
flicker in excess of limits stated in the relevant
sections of IEC 61000-3-3 for systems less than 16
A or IEC 61000-3-5 for systems with current of 16 A
and above.
4.4 DC injection P
The PV system is not inject DC current greater than (See appended table) P
1 % of the rated inverter output current, into the
utility AC interface under any operating condition.
4.5 Normal frequency operating range P
The PV system operates in synchronism with the P
utility system, and within the frequency
trip limits defined in 5.2.2.
4.6 Harmonics and waveform distortion P
Total harmonic current distortion is less than 5 % at (See appended table) P
rated inverter output. Each individual harmonic is
limited to the percentages listed in Table 1.
Even harmonics in these ranges is less than 25 % of P
the lower odd harmonic limits listed.
TRF No. IEC 61727B

IEC61727
4.7 The PV system has a lagging power factor greater P

than 0,9 when the output is greater than 50 % of the
rated inverter output power.
5 PERSONNEL SAFETY AND EQUIPMENT PROTECTION P
This Clause provides information and considerations P
for the safe and proper operation of the utility-
connected PV systems.
5.1 Loss of utility voltage P
To prevent islanding, a utility connected PV system Complied with IEC 62116, See P
ceases to energize the utility system from a de- the separate report for
energized distribution line irrespective of connected reference
loads or other generators within specified time limits.
A utility distribution line can become de-energized P
for several reasons. For example, a substation
breaker opening due to fault conditions or the
distribution line switched out during maintenance.
5.2 Over/under voltage and frequency P
The abnormal utility conditions of concern are P
voltage and frequency excursions above or below
the values stated in this Clause, and the complete
disconnection of the utility, presenting the potential
for a distributed resource island.
5.2.1 Over/under voltage P
When the interface voltage deviates outside the (See appended table) P
conditions specified in Table 2, the photovoltaic
system ceases to energize the utility distribution
system. This applies to any phase of a multiphase
system.
TRF No. IEC 61727B

IEC61727
5.2.2 Over/under frequency P

When the utility frequency deviates outside the (See appended table) P
specified conditions the photovoltaic system ceases
to energize the utility line. The unit does not have to
cease to energize if the frequency returns to the
normal utility continuous operation condition within
the specified trip time.
When the utility frequency is outside the range of ±1 P
Hz, the system ceases to energize the utility line
within 0,2 s. The purpose of the allowed range and
time delay is to allow continued operation for short-
term disturbances and to avoid excessive nuisance
tripping in weak-utility system conditions.
5.3 Islanding protection P
The PV system must cease to energize the utility P
line within 2 s of loss of utility.
5.4 Response to utility recovery P
Following an out-of-range utility condition that has (See appended table) P
caused the photovoltaic system to cease energizing,
the photovoltaic system is not energize the utility line
for 20 s to 5 min after the utility service voltage and
frequency have recovered to within the specified
ranges.
5.5 Earthing P
The utility interface equipment is earthed/grounded P
in accordance with IEC 60364-7-712.
5.6 Short circuit protection N/A
The photovoltaic system has short-circuit protection Should consider in the end N/A
in accordance with IEC 60364-7-712. use
5.7 Isolation and switching N/A
A method of isolation and switching is provided in Should consider in the end N/A
accordance with IEC 60364-7-712. use

For test condition A:
If any of the recorded run-on times are longer than the one recorded for the rated balance condition, then
the non-shaded parameter combinations also require testing.
For test condition B and C:
If run-on times are still increasing at the 95 % or 105 % points, additional 1 % increments is taken until
run-on times begin decreasing.
