Term/Abbreviation Explanation
AINT Main circuit board inside the inverter module
APBU Optical branching unit for fiber links that use the PPCS protocol. The unit is used for
connecting parallel-connected inverter modules to the RDCU.
DC input Connection point from solar array to inverter. One input consists of one positive and
one negative terminal.
DDCS Distributed drives communication system; a protocol used in optical fiber
communication inside and between ABB drives and inverters.
EMC Electromagnetic compatibility
Frame (size) Relates to the construction type of the component in question. The term is often
used in reference to a group of components that share a similar mechanical
construction.
To determine the frame size of a component, refer to the rating tables in chapter
Technical data.
IGBT Insulated gate bipolar transistor; a voltage-controlled semiconductor type widely
used in inverters due to its easy controllability and high switching frequency.
Inverter A cabinet-built entity containing all inverter modules together with their control
electronics, and I/O and auxiliary components. The inverter module converts the DC
voltage to AC voltage. Its operation is controlled by switching the IGBTs.
I/O Input/Output
MCB Miniature circuit breaker
MPPT Maximum power point tracking. Inverter software function that automatically
operates the photovoltaic generator at its maximum power point.
NAMU Auxiliary measuring unit
NDPA PC card, DDCS communication board; PC communication hardware for
DriveWindow
NDPC Optical transmitter/receiver; PC communication hardware for DriveWindow
NETA Ethernet adapter module
Photovoltaic cell,
generator, module,
string, array and
array junction box
In this manual, solar power system components based on photovoltaic effect are
called solar cell, solar module, solar array, solar string and solar array junction box
as defined below.
