Grid - configuring grid related settings

Country
Select the country in which the system will be installed.
Country-specific grid validation settings will be programmed 
automatically, such as:

Anti-islanding - Frequency - Voltage - AC values

Grid limits
When enabled, country specific settings can be overruled. This 
is only allowed only with specific permission from the energy 
contractor.

EEG 2012*
When enabled, the system complies with the EEG2012 regulations 
(in Germany) by limiting its grid output power to 70% of nominal 
power by default. The limitation can be optimized by entering the 
installed solar power capacity. The system will then limit its AC 
output to 70% of the installed solar power capacity.

VDE4105*
Here you can change the reactive power settings as required 
by your local utility company, when deviating from the standard 
VDE4105 curve.

*Note: This setting is only applicable when the PowerRouter is 
installed in Germany.
