[RE-wrenches] AC/DC coupling on conext

Hello Drake
This is from the App note
OutBack’s Frequency Shift AC Coupling is only employed in the Radian GS(A) class inverter at this time. It requires a firmware upgrade on both the Radian inverter and MATE3s system display and controller. The firmware is only available by download on the OutBack Power website.

The GS-AC-GEN –KIT is available from Distributors.
It contains the needed breakers and relays the app note shows the wiring.
Take Care Sir

Hi Lones,

Can the frequency shift be retrofitted to an earlier radian, four + years old? The unit now has the obsolete, remote operated circuit breaker (ROCB) that I'm a bit concerned about.

Thanks,

Drake

Hi Andrew
OutBack now has AC Coupling for the Radian using frequency shift.
Below is a link to the Ac Coupling/ Frequency Shift App Note located on the OutBack website.

You also state the client wants to “get solar” in a situation where the grid cannot accept incoming solar.
The radian has several modes which utilizes solar and will prevent sell back. This might be an option to consider.
Take Care Sir

Wrenches,
                I got a situation where I got a client who wants to get solar with battery backup but where he is located the grid cannot currently accept incoming solar, but we can buy from them. I was thinking about doing an conext xw system and then solaredge ac coupling for module level shutdown but I don’t know how well that would be on the conext side of things for charging some discover lithium ion batteries? I would rather do standard DC coupled system but not familiar with any of those 3rd party rapid shutdown devices(fire raptor and midnite?), has anyone used any before?
