Pacific Power Source provides ideal AC / DC power source and load solutions for testing solar PV/grid-tied inverters, micro-grids, energy storage systems, and loads, worldwide. The Regenerative Grid Simulators and Regenerative Electronic Loads offer complementary solutions for simulating bi-directional power flows used in real-world conditions. Emulate almost any grid condition and test to global regulatory compliance standards such as IEEE 1547, UL 1741, IEC 61000-3, IEC 61000-4, and more. The RLS Grid Simulator can verify the AC product performance while the optional AC DC Load is ideal for simulating any inductive, capacitive, or resistive load for a complete solution.
Grid-tied technologies often require grid-tied AC/DC inverters using modern switch mode PWM technology to achieve maximum conversion efficiency. Pacific Power Source’s state of the art, fully programmable AC Power Sources are used to simulate a wide array of AC anomalies.
Large scale industrial grid-tied PV inverters generate power ranging from 12KW up several hundreds of KW and require extensive type testing to be certified for grid-tied operation under all kinds of adverse line conditions. The regenerative, bidirectional AZX Series programmable AC & DC Power Source family is well suited to this task due to their extensive range of programmable features and it’s 30kVA to 400KVA available power range.
Since PV inverters generate AC power, the AC Power Source used to simulate the AC grid must be able to absorb this power and return it to the grid. The AZX series seamlessly transitions between source and sink mode and meets all requirements for AC Grid Simulation for the PV inverter type test and production regulatory test standards.
Conveniently test PV solar inverters up to 400kVA to grid-tied standards such as UL 1547, IEEE 1547.1, IEC TS 63106-1, IEC TS 61000-3-4 & -3-5 using our AZX Series regenerative AC Grid Simulator products.
