    GENERAL PV Point: The Fronius GEN24 PV Point / Opportunity Power (OP) function is a separate AC power output on the inverter that can provide single phase power during a grid outage. PV Point can source this power from the present solar power or stored power in the PV battery (a battery unit is not necessary for the operation of PV Point).

    The functional diagram of the PV Point is shown in Figure 1: Figure 1: Schematic of the basic PV Point power supply of the Fronius GEN24 & GEN24 Plus series PV Point Advanced: The “PV Point Advanced” solution uses the existing PV Point function with a 3 party changeover relay allowing backup loads to be powered by the grid until a blackout occurs.
