Technical FAQs 4

What is a phase shift in a PV inverter?

Phase shifts of 15°, 30°, and 60° were subjected to the grid voltage (all three phases) after a period of normal grid operation sufficient to startup the PV inverter and have the system settle to a steady-state operating point equivalent to the conditions shown in Table 1.

Can a PV inverter be set to stand-alone mode?

The PV inverter can be set to stand-alone mode and reduce its feed-in power if this is required by the battery state of charge or the energy demand of the connected loads. To do this, use the integrated frequency-shift power control (FSPC). Selecting the PV Inverter You can use the following PV inverters in off-grid systems.

Does a utility-scale PV inverter respond to grid voltage phase shift-type disturbances?

This work investigates the specific response of a utility-scale PV inverter to grid voltage phase shift-type disturbances which sometimes occur during grid fault events. The role of the PV inverter’s phase-locked-loop (PLL) is identified as important to modeling the response.

Does a PV inverter have a phase-locked-loop?

The role of the PV inverter’s phase-locked-loop (PLL) is identified as important to modeling the response. Switching-level simulations of a utility-scale PV inverter with a modeled PLL show a characteristic response when phase shift disturbances require the PLL to track what appear as fast frequency changes.
