Setting Parameters for Smart Reactive Power Compensation
Context
The smart reactive power compensation algorithm obtains the power data of the power meter at the grid-connection point through the SmartLogger, performs intelligent algorithm analysis, adjusts the reactive power output of the solar inverter or Smart PCS, optimizes the power factor of the grid-connection point, and reduces or avoids power factor charge to increase the energy yield of the PV plant.
- Before setting the parameters, ensure that the devices are connected to the SmartLogger.
- If a power meter is connected to the SmartLogger, the power meter access procedure in the wizard is only used as a check guide. If no power meter is connected to the SmartLogger, add a power meter by following the wizard.
- For versions earlier than SmartLogger V300R023C00SPC160, before setting the parameters, ensure that the license for smart reactive power compensation has been loaded on the page.
Procedure
- Set parameters as prompted. For details, click Help on the page.Figure 6-79 Setting parameters for smart reactive power compensation (Scenario Selection)
When the SmartLogger receives a remote reactive power scheduling command from the plant, it automatically changes Reactive power control mode to Remote communication scheduling. If power factor closed-loop control is required, set Reactive power control mode to Power factor closed-loop control and set the target power factor correctly.
