    The device features two RS485-Interfaces. One RS485-Interface is earmarked for communication with a string- combiner-box. This can be controlled using the Modbus RTU protocol. Data loggers that cannot be connected via Ethernet can be connected to the other RS485-Interface. The Sunspec and KACO protocol are supported in this case.

    Some grid connection rules insist that the agreed reactive power be supplied from every operating point of the plant without a reduction in the actual active power. Considering the fact that all KACO TL3 inverters have a semi-circular P-Q operating range, a reduction in the active power is, however, required during operation at maximum active power because an apparent power reserve is not available.
