[RE-wrenches] Hawaii Frequency Settings

[John Berdner]

Mark:

Yes, Hawaii requires custom settings and they require the installer to certify the inverter has been programmed to those settings.
We have a menu choice for Hawaii in our setup menus.
If you have older product we can update them remotely once connected to the internet.

Subject: [RE-wrenches] Hawaii Frequency Settings

Folks,

I was told that because the HI grid has poor frequency control, grid-tied inverters have to have their low frequency limit set to 57 Hz so they can ride out the worst low frequency events.

I find it hard to believe that this has been done for every single inverter installed in HI.

But, what do I know.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

Thanks,
