Dear Plonkster, Good post about Anti Islanding devices and information. There are several Hub 1 Installations around South Africa and Namibia at the moment. The VEConfigure 3 software issues a warning to users and installers that a Anti Islanding device is needed when settings up the Hub 1 software configuration. Clearly you have seen this. The Hub 1 Set up uses our Self Consumption Logic, if i can call it that. This means users optimize the the power they generate from their PV installation, in the case of a Hub 1 it is MPPTs. The Generated power is first used by the connected loads, then used to charge the battery bank and the balance is fed into the Grid. Inside the software set up there are 4 options on how the system should manage the grid connection and prioritize how the batteries are looked after, i am sure you have seen it under the switching policies. There is also a option not to feedback energy at all. Maybe that is the option for you? if you have more questions please email me at [email protected]
