Photovoltaic Microinverter Testbed for Multiple Device Interoperability
- Sandia National Lab. (SNL-NM), Albuquerque, NM (United States)
IEEE Standard 1547-2003 conformance of several interconnected microinverters was performed by Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) to determine if there were emergent adverse behaviors of co-located aggregated distributed energy resources. Experiments demonstrated the certification tests could be expanded for multi-manufacturer microinverter interoperability. Evaluations determined the microinverters' response to abnormal conditions in voltage and frequency, interruption in grid service, and cumulative power quality. No issues were identified to be caused by the interconnection of multiple devices.
