Functional Principle of the LVRT
From the grid operators point of view, a LVRT profile defines a voltage profile which a distributed energy resource, that
is connected to the grid, should be able to ride through in case of a low voltage event (voltage dip). The distributed
energy resource is only allowed to disconnect from the grid if the voltage at the point of common coupling drops below
the LVRT borderline. In other words, a LVRT protection function is a time-dependent voltage supervision according to a
predefined voltage profile. The time-dependent voltage supervision will be started, as soon as the voltage at the point of
common coupling falls below the start voltage level. The LVRT will be stopped, as soon as the voltage rises above the
recover voltage level.
