PV Inverters in the Stand-Alone Grid System SMA Solar Technology AG
134 SI5048-TEN093630 Technical Description
17.1.1 Setting using the rotary switch on SB 3000TL / 4000TL /
5000TL
1. Set the rotary switch, A, with a screwdriver (2.5 mm) to position "E".
2. Set the chosen language via the rotary switch B with a screwdriver (2.5 mm).
You can find the configuration of the switch in the manual of the PV inverter.
☑ Stand-alone grid operation and the desired language are set.
17.1.2 Setting using the rotary switch on SB 2000HF / 2500HF /
3000HF and STP 10000TL / 12000TL / 15000TL / 17000TL
1. Set the rotary switch, A, with a screwdriver (2.5 mm) to the desired position:
– Position "D" = Stand-alone grid operation 60 Hz
– Position "E" = Stand-alone grid operation 50 Hz
2. Set the chosen language via the rotary switch B with a screwdriver (2.5 mm).
You can find the configuration of the switch in the manual of the PV inverter.
☑ Stand-alone grid operation and the desired language are set.
17.1.3 Settings Via Communication or Sowftare
You can set the PV inverter to "stand-alone grid operation" (OFF-Grid) via communications or
software.
Depending on the device type, the stand-alone grid operation (OFF-Grid) is set using the parameter
"CntrySet" or "Default". Carry out the parameter change as described in the manual of the
communication device or of the software.
Setting the parameter "CntrySet" or "Setze Ländernorm"
The setting to stand-alone grid operation using the parameter "CntrySet" is possible only
with the following PV inverters:
• SB 3000TL / 4000TL / 5000TL
• SB 2000HF / 2500HF / 3000HF
• STP 10000TL / 12000TL / 15000TL / 17000TL
Setting the "Default" parameter
The setting to stand-alone grid operation using the parameter "Default" is possible only with
the following PV inverters:
• SB 1200, SB1700, SB 2100TL, SB 2500, SB 3000, SB 3300, SB 3300TLHC,
SB 3800, SMC 4600A, SMC 5000A, SMC 6000A, SMC 7000HV, SMC 6000TL,
SMC 7000TL, SMC 8000TL, SMC 9000TL, 10000TL, 11000TL, SMC 9000TL,
10000TLRP, 11000TLRP
