  • Page 22 What is frequency shifting power reduction? All UL1741SA compliant grid-interactive inverter has the Frequency-Watt feature, which requires the grid- interactive inverter to reduce power with the increasing of grid frequency when grid frequency is over 60Hz. The power will drop to zero before the over frequency trip threshold is reached. When the hybrid inverter requires the grid interactive inverter to reduce power, it simply shift the output frequency up a bit, the grid-interactive inverter will l imit its output power accordingly after sensing this frequency shift.
