  • Page 126: Parallel Operation

    Parallel Operation SolarEdge modular UPS systems can be paralleled together to support large loads and provide horizontal system redundancy. The multi-rack system allows for full current sharing at a modular level without the need for additional hardware. By connecting one system communication to the next, units can operate simultaneously while in full synchronization.

  • Page 127: Decentralized Static Switch Method

    To avoid such a hazard in decentralized mode, the static switches are synchronized by dedicated control communication to ensure that if one unit goes to Bypass mode, the rest of the units will also transfer to Bypass mode simultaneously.

  • Page 128: Parallel Communication

    When two or more UPS units are operated in parallel, parallel communication must take place between them in a "ring" arrangement. This is accomplished using the SolarEdge- provided cables with D25 connectors on each end. Parallel communication keeps the parallel units synchronized with each other and is used to pass commands and status information between units.
