Technical FAQs 4

What is inverter frequency?

In today's world, inverters play a vital role in various applications, such as home solar power system, inverter for office use, inverter for van, etc. Central to their operation is the concept of an inverter frequency, which determines the rate at which the current alternates direction.

How does an external energy source affect a PV inverter?

When an external energy source, (e.g. a diesel generator) is operating in the stand-alone grid, this external energy source determines the frequency and the PV inverters set to off-grid operation react to certain frequency changes brought about by the external energy source.

How do PV inverters work?

Conversely most of the PV inverters are designed to operate in the maximum power point (MPP) to generate the maximum revenue. Due to the synchronization mechanism, an inherent close coupling exists between the speed of the conventional generator and the grid frequency. On the contrary, the inverter interface completely decouples PV from the grid.

Can a diesel generator be used as a PV inverter?

With diesel generators as external energy source, the frequency of the output voltage under load is 60 Hz. For this reason, in most cases the PV inverters will feed their entire power into the stand-alone grid, even when the diesel generator is in operation.
