Description
This Standard specifies the requirements for grid protection devices intended to be used in inverter energy systems, with ratings up to 10 kVA for single-phase units, or up to 30 kVA for three-phase units, and for the injection of electric power through an electrical installation to the electricity distribution network.
Scope
Notes:
- Although this Standard does not apply to larger systems, similar principles can be used for the grid protection of such systems.
- These devices do not replace devices used for protection and/or isolation as required in AS/NZS 3000.
- Although this Standard is written on the basis that the renewable energy is from a d.c. source (e.g. photovoltaic array), this Standard may be used for systems where the energy is from a variable a.c. source (e.g. wind turbine or micro-hydro system) by appropriate changes to the tests.
- This Standard does not include EMC requirements. These requirements are mandated by the Australian Communications Authority (ACA). Users attention is drawn to Australian Communications Authoritys document Electromagnetic Compatibility - Information for suppliers of electrical and electronic products in Australia and New Zealand for guidance.
