DER Inverter Testing Brocher

Services DER Inverter TestingDERlab has comprehensive expertise in testing the functional behavior of grid invert-ers according to several national and international specifi cations. The devices under test can be connected to LV or MV networks and may vary within a broad power range: small scale under 1 kW; medium scale; and large scale over several MW.In particular, the following aspects can be tested:• Interconnection and grid code compliance• Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)• Interoperability and communication; protection• Reliability and safety• Simulation of different environmental conditions• Performance: Overall ef? ciency (Conversion and MPPT); CEC rated ef? ciency; Performance under extreme ambient conditionsA large variety of interconnection requirements, grid codes and testing standards can be applied, e. g:• European standards: EN 50438; EN 50524; EN 50530; prTS 50549• International standards: IEC/EN 61000 series; IEC 61400-21; IEC 62093; IEC 62109-1; IEC 62109-2; IEC 62116; IEEE 519; IEEE 1547.1• National standards and codes:• Austria: OEVE/OENORM E 8001-4-712• Belgium: C10/11• Germany: (BDEW) Medium Voltage Grid Code; FGW TR Series; VDE-AR-N 4105; VDE 0124-100; VDE 0126-1-1/A1• Spain: RD 436/2004; RD 1663/2000; PVVC; P.O. 12.3• Italy: CEI 021; CEI C.1058• UK: ER G83/1-1; G59/2• USA: ANSI C62.41; CEC Inverter Performance Protocol; FCC part 15 Class A; UL 1741Various tests of DER in-verters can be performed at DERlab laboratories. Devices under test may vary within a broad power range.Inverters form an important link in the chain between energy gen-eration from renewable energy sources and the point of consump-tion. DERlab provides a platform to test the desired functions of the inverters and, additionally, develop new features which are not cur-rently implemented.Submit your inquiry on www.der-lab.net/request-form.phpwww.der-lab.netCONTACTEuropean Distributed Energy Resources Laboratories (DERlab) e.
