3.3.4 Description of the operational status

No (or low) input voltage

The Windy Boy is in Standby mode. This
situation occurs when the input perfor-
mance is too low for feeding the mains
grid (DC input voltage < approx. 80 V)
and for satisfying the on-board power re-
quirements.

Initialization

The on-board computer of the Windy
Boy is presently in the initialization pro-
cess. The DC input voltage of the Windy
Boy lies between approx. 80 V and ap-
prox. 120 V. The power is adequate for
the on-board power requirements but in-
sufficient for mains-grid feed-in or for
data transmission.

Working mode

The Windy Boy has successfully passed
the measurement electronics and SMA
grid guard self-tests and has begun feed-
in operation.

The Windy Boy is working normally and
is feeding electricity into the mains grid.
It is converting the DC voltage from the
wind turbine according to the V/I char-
acteristic curve defined by <U

PV

Start>,

<U
