13.2.4 Inverter – Stand-Alone Systems
The characteristics for a stand-alone system inverter are entered in this window. Details on
using the database are given under Project Design.
Manufacturer and Type are allowed a maximum text length of 50 characters.
Nominal DC Output:
The direct current flows into the inverter. The nominal output is the power rating at which
the inverter, under continuous operation, is designed to run.
Nominal AC Output:
This refers to the current that flows out of the inverter. The nominal AC output is the power
rating that is available for the electrical appliances connected to the system.
Stand-by Consumption [W]:
If no energy is being delivered into the grid or to the electrical appliances, the energy
required by the inverter itself still has to be accounted for.
Nominal DC Voltage:
The nominal DC voltage must match the battery’s nominal voltage.
Nominal AC voltage:
The voltage corresponds to the nominal voltage of the appliances.
Characteristic Curve - Inverter:
This button opens the Characteristic Curve – Inverter dialog, so that the you can enter the
conversion efficiency depending on the input power. These values should be obtained
from the inverter manufacturer.
