7 AC SETTINGS
7.1 SMART BOOST FUNCTIONALITY
A permanent measurement of the input current allows to control the power taken from the AC
source. If the load exceeds the maximum power of the AC source connected to the WPC then the
Smart-Boost function will compensate the power required at the output.
For example if the max power of the ac generator is set at 3kW but the load is 4kW, then 3kW is
taken from the generator and 1kW is taken from the battery.
Figure 1 - WPC using the Smart-Boost function
If the load is only 1kW, then the Smart-Boost function will not be used. If the maximum power of the
ac source is set at 3kW, then the 1kW load will be powered by the AC source and the 2kW
remaining will be used as needed to charge the battery.
