Does the Axpert synchronise with incoming grid AC

Featured Replies

Hi all,

I could do with a technical response for my question please.

The moment the inverter is connected in parallel with the grid, it does synchronize with the grid for load purposes. Then it is an Embedded generator.

Is this statement correct? I cant seem to find a suitable response to say if it does or doesn't. If anyone has a line diagram and description it would be very welcome.

I believe the Axpert does synchronise with the grid, but ONLY so that it can more cleanly reconnect the loads to the grid (when it reconnects to the grid). It does not feed power into the grid.

Re synchronisation, what that means is that when the grid returns, the inverter will modify it's frequency slightly so that the zero crossing points of the 50Hz signal drifts into phase, and then it will move the loads back to the grid when the voltage waveforms are aligned. Some equipment does not like being randomly thrown onto a different part of the cycle and sometimes that spike can even damage things.
