SMA SB 3600SE-10 - Manual (Page 48)

8.7 Setting the Active Power Limit at the Grid-Connection
Point
You will only need to set the active power limit at the grid-connection point in systems with Sunny
Boy Smart Energy and SMA Energy Meter. This will ensure that the inverter always feeds the
maximum permissible PV power into the utility grid.
If you are operating an Integrated Storage System and have created a Sunny Home Manager
system in Sunny Portal, the active power limit will already have been detected at the grid-
connection point and this action will no longer be required.
The basic procedure for changing operating parameters is explained in another section (see
Section 8.5, page 46).
Requirement:
☐ The total aggregate active power limit of all inverters at the grid-connection point must be
known.
Default setting:
• SB 3600SE-10: 3,680 W
• SB 5000SE-10: 4,600 W
Procedure:
• Select the parameter Avg. eff. power lim. grid conn. pt. and set the total aggregate active
power limit of all inverters present in the PV system.
8.8 Setting the Active Power Limitation in case of PV System
Control Failure
You will need to set the active power limit in case of PV system control failure if you are operating
an Integrated Storage System and the external active power limitation of the inverter is controlled
by the Sunny Home Manager.
By setting the active power limitation in case of PV system control failure, you ensure that the
inverter will still feed the maximum permissible PV power into the utility grid, even if communication
between inverter and Sunny Home Manager has failed.
The basic procedure for changing operating parameters is explained in another section (see
Section 8.5, page 46).
Requirements:
☐ The firmware version of the inverter must be at least 2.4.0.R.
☐ The total installed PV power must be known.
