Grid Impedance
In the following example the output power (Uac) is reduced to 260 V. You are also
able to reduce the output power of the Sunny Mini Central 5000/6000 according to
the national standards.
Because of a high grid impedance the Sunny Mini Central 5000/6000 can receive
a high AC voltage at the connection point. The output voltage (Uac) of the Sunny
Mini Central 5000/6000 is limited to 260 V. If the Sunny Mini Central 5000/6000
exceeds 260 V, it stops feeding to the grid immediately and indicates a „grid fail-
ure“.
Which power you can feed into the grid, without stopping operation because of high
AC voltages, is shown in the diagram below.
To estimate how many Sunny Mini Central 5000/6000 can operate on one phase
you need the following values:
• Grid voltage without feeding
• Grid impedance at the connection point of the Sunny Mini Central 5000/6000
The diagram shows the respective curve for the AC voltage without feeding. The re-
spective curve for power per phase (X axis) results in subject to the grid impedance
(Y axis).
