Hello all.
Am running a H6* grid-tied inverter from photovoltaic panels on my roof and injecting its generated AC output to the utility grid trough a 30 Amperes circuit breaker. No batteries, all is working fine, am really happy.
Grid <--------------------- 30A breaker at panel <------------------------- H6 inverter <------------------------ PV panels.
From what I understand, this inverter type only outputs power if the utility grid is present and working fine. How does the sensing, do not know.
Of course, the breaker panel supplies all my house and energy excedent is fed back into the utility grid.
If instead of the 30A breaker; a tiny isolation plain AC transformer** was used just to make the grid parameters 'presence' known to the H6 inverter (showing perfectly accurate grid AC voltage and grid AC frequency to the inverter) But totally incapable of injecting meaningful power onto the grid.
Grid -------------------> tiny 1:1 transformer---------------X--------------- H6 inverter <----------------------- PV panels
Can the point 'X' supply the inverted not-from-grid energy to a dwelling ?
That is, the 'inverted' outputted energy to supply a house but not injected into the grid.
That is, the grid used only as enabling reins for the inverter.
That is, a grid controlled off-grid system.
Am not after this configuration, just trying to learn hidden cracks and inner workings.
