A complete list of regulatory specifications is available on the Declaration of Conformity which is
included with the inverter. These include interconnection response times as required by IEEE
1547. They also include manufacturer's stated accuracies and grid support function parameters
as required by UL 1741 SA.
NOTE :
The reconnection delay has a default setting of 5 minutes. The grid-interactive default
settings are shown in the Grid Interface Protection Menu portion of Table 17.
The Grid Interface Protection settings are adjustable. However, this is only available to
operators with installer-level access. The reason for this limitation is that there are firm rules
concerning the acceptable voltage range, frequency range, clearance time during power loss,
and reconnect delay when exporting power back to the utility. The rules differ in different
locations around the world, although generally it is expected that the settings cannot be altered
by the end user. For this reason, the installer password must be changed from the default to
get access to these settings.
Once this password has been changed, the Grid Interface Protection settings can be
accessed by using the installer password.
See Grid Tied mode on page 14 for more information. Also see Default Settings and Ranges
on page 63.
