Scenario 1: 

Several inverters are operated in parallel connection to the single-phase 

Low Voltage grid. 

 

Requirements: 

The sum of all inverters in parallel connection is limited to 

THIRTY

.

 

Scenario 2: 

Several inverters are operated in parallel connection to the three-phase 

Low Voltage grid.

 

 

Requirements: 

z

 

The sum of all inverters in parallel connection is limited to thirty. 

n(L1)+n(L2)+n(L3)

30.

 

z

 

Inverters should be distributed as equally as possible between the three phases 
with maximum unbalanced load of 4.6kVA. 

Scenario 3: 

Several inverters are operated in parallel connection to low-voltage side 

of MV transformer. The high-voltage side of MV transformer is connected to the 
Middle Voltage Grid.
