Change to the names and units of grid parameters to comply with the grid-
connection requirements in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/631
(valid from April 27, 2019)
To comply with the EU grid-connection requirements (valid from April 27, 2019) the names
and units of grid parameters were changed. This change is valid from firmware version
≥ 3.00.00.R if a country data set for fulfilling the EU grid-connection requirements (valid from
2019-04-27) is set. Names and units of grid parameters for inverters with firmware version
≤ 2.99.99.R are not affected by this change and remain valid. This also applies from firmware
version ≥ 3.00.00.R if a country data set that is valid for countries outside the EU is set.
The basic procedure for changing operating parameters is explained in another section (see
Section 8.10 "Changing Operating Parameters", page 61).
Procedure:
• In the parameter group
Grid monitoring > Grid monitoring
select the parameter
Set
country standard
and set the required country data set.
8.12 Configuring the Active Power Mode
Starting the installation assistant
1. Open the user interface (see Section 8.1, page 49).
2. Log in as
Installer
.
3. Start the installation assistant (see Section 8.5, page 58).
4. Select [
Save and continue
] after each step up until the step
Grid management service
.
5. Make the settings as described in the following.
Make the settings for systems with external setpoint
1. Set the
Grid connection point regulation
to [
Off
].
2. In the tab
Active power mode
set the switch
Active power setpoint
to [
On
].
3. In the drop-down list
Operating mode active power setpoint
, select the entry
External
setpoint
.
4. In the drop-down list
Fallback behavior
, select the entry
Apply fallback values
.
5. In the field
Fallback value of the maximum active power
enter the value to which the
inverter is to limit its nominal power in case of a communication failure to the higher control
unit at the end of the timeout time.
6. In the field
Timeout
, enter the time that the inverter is to wait before it limits its nominal power
to the set fallback value.
7. If, in the event of a 0% or 0 W specification, the inverter is not permitted to feed small amounts
of active power into the utility grid, select the entry
Yes
in the drop-down list
Grid
disconnection for 0% active power setpoint
. This ensures that in the event of a 0% or 0 W
specification, the inverter disconnects from the utility grid and does not feed in active power.
