Technical description
The "OffGrid" parameter setting automatically sets the following Sunny Boy parameters to the values
below:
This completes the stand-alone grid parameter settings for the Sunny Boy.
17.5 Frequency-Shift Power Control (FSPC)
This section describes the operating principles of the "power adjustment via frequency" (Frequency
Shift Power Control - FSPC).
If Sunny Boy inverters are connected to the AC side of the off-grid system, the Sunny Island must be
able to limit their output power. This situation can occur when, e.g. the Sunny Island battery is fully
charged and the (solar) power available from the PV array exceeds the power required by the
connected loads.
To prevent the excess energy from overcharging the battery, the Sunny Island 4548-US/6048-US
recognizes this situation and changes the frequency at the AC output. This frequency adjustment is
analyzed by the Sunny Boy. As soon as the power frequency increases and exceeds a defined value
"f
AC
Start Delta", the Sunny Boy limits its power accordingly.
