5.4 Back-Up with Peak Load Shaving
This conguration is typically installed in areas with weak and unstable grids that experience frequent blackouts, or
installations that need to limit grid consumption due to tier based pricing based on power and energy tiers. (Refer to
Figure 8).
Typical operating modes for this conguration: Back-up/Off-Grid, Peak Load Shaving, Pass Through, and Grid Charging.
6. SYSTEM OPERATING MODES
~
=
6.1 Back-Up / Off-Grid
The inverter is inverting and power is
being supplied from the energy stored in
the batteries. The grid and generator are
not able to power the loads.
6.2 Grid Sell
~
=
The system will sell back to the grid when
the batteries are fully charged and there
is excess solar power on the DC bus. The
inverter is inverting to power the loads and
will sell any excess to the grid. The amount
of energy sold back to the grid can be set
by the user through the inverter settings.
6.3 Pass Through
The system will enter pass through when
charging from the grid or a generator is
not desired. The loads are only powered
through the AC sources. When there is
an AC coupled grid-interactive inverter
the system will send the solar power to
the grid.
