23�3�4 Variable cos (Phi) shift factor over characteristic curve P/Pn
The function allows the cos (Phi) to be adjusted according to characteristic curve P/Pn.
With a characteristic curve P/Pn, the ratio of the currently generated power (P) to nominal power (maxi-
mum output) (Pn) is determined. A Cos (Phi) is assigned to ratio by a characteristic curve.
The function is also referred to as Phi (P).
The currently generated power (P) is calculated by the Solar-Log™ based on the inverter data. If an Utility
Meter with power measurement is available, the output value will be used instead.
Note
Please check that all of the Solar-Logs in a master/slave setup have the same firmware
version, especially for the characteristic curve P/Pn with the Utility Meter.
Type of characteristic curve section
Using this menu item a characteristic curve specified by the grid operator can be stored. In principle a dis-
tinction is made here between a 2-point and a 4-point characteristic curve.
2-point characteristic curve
By selecting "2-point characteristic curve" it is possible to define a characteristic curve using two points.
Procedure
•
Select
Variable cos (Phi) shift factor over characteristic curve P/Pn
from the menu.
•
Activate
Interfaces
.
•
Select
2-point characteristic curve
.
•
Define
the
characteristic curve points A and B
based on the boxes P/Pn and cos (Phi) and put a
check in front of "inductive."
•
SAVE
settings.
The characteristic curve displayed changes according to the values entered.
4-point characteristic curve
By selecting "4-point characteristic curve" it is possible to define a characteristic curve using four points.
Procedure
•
Select
Variable cos (Phi) shift factor over characteristic curve P/Pn
from the menu.
•
Activate
Interfaces
.
•
Select
4-point characteristic curve
.
•
Define
the
characteristic curve points A, B, C and D
based on the boxes P/Pn, cos (Phi) and put a
check in front of inductive/under-excited.
•
SAVE
settings.
The characteristic curve displayed changes according to the values entered.
