 2. Solar grid tie inverter Xantrex GT 500E
Description

The new Grid Tie Inverter is based on a reliable platform that is used in grid-connect photovoltaic and wind
turbine applications in North America and Europe. Easy to install and operate, the GT500E automates start up,
and shut down. It incorporates advanced Maximum Power Point Tracking Technology to maximize the energy
harvested from a PV array. To minimize power losses during the conversion process, the inverter’s switching
technology uses insulated gate bi-polar transistors. Multiple inverters can be paralleled for large power
installations. Designed for European PV installations, the GT500E meets all applicable CE requirements.

Features

- Digital Signal Processor (DSP) based controls with self-diagnostics and LCD for display of operating status

- Inverter shut off and disconnects

- Over- and under-voltage and frequency protection, shutting down the inverter

- Anti-islanding protection - prevents back-feeding inverter-generated power to the grid in the event of a utility
outage

- User definable power tracking allows the user to match the inverter to the array, as well as to adjust delay
periods to customize system shutdown sequences

- Graphical user interface software for real time communications, monitoring, and control

- Remote monitoring via telephone modem or web server

- Data acquisition and logging

- Isolation protection

- DC and AC over voltage protection

Combinerbox for 2 inverter to reduce losses at low-load

- seperate wall standing box

- prepared for conection of 2x8 generator cables up to 250A

- 1pol. fusing with DC-fuses (DIN)

- Switching by 1pol.-contactors

 4. Medium-voltage switchgear- typ RM6

Description
Factory-assembled, type-tested SF6 ring-main switchgear, assembly based on DIN-EN 62271-200 (VDE
0671 Part 200) for installation in closed electrical operating facilities.
The switchgear fulfill the Norm described requirements.

- class of internal arc tested IAC A FL 16kA, 1s

- Partition of Metal : PM
- Loss of service continuity LSC 2A

The switching devices for the various functions and the busbars for connection between the individual
switching devices are located in an enclosure made of special steel. This enclosure, hermetically sealed for
the entire service life of the unit, contains SF6 gas at a pressure of 20 kPa relative to normal atmospheric
pressure. The leak-tightness of the system complies with the definition "hermetically sealed pressurized
system" in accordance with the standard VDE 0671 Part 200. The compartment spaces do not require
recharging with gas over the entire service life of the unit.

Features

The switching devices, designed as three-position switches, fulfill the tasks of switching, isolating and
grounding. The grounding switch is a make-proof switch. The driving mechanisms for the grounding switch
and for the load interrupter, or power circuit-breaker are interlocked with one another. Actuation of the devices
and items is carried out by a high-speed operating mechanism that functions independently of the operating
end switching action.

The switching device driving mechanisms are located on the front under a cover, on which a mimic system
diagram is attached. The mimic system diagram and labeling are in different colors and arranged in a clearly
laid out and easy to read format. The switchgear assembly has the following color scheme:

enclosure: RAL9002 (grey-white)

cover: RAL7016 (anthrazit)
