[PSES] Schematics for Surge Generator CDI 1000i

2014-07-16 Thread itl-emc user group
Hi, We misplaced our user manual for a CDI surge generator M/N CDI 1000i. Does anyone know where we can get a copy of the manual as well as the schematics? Thanks in advance for any help. Regards, David Shidlowsky | Technical Writer Address 1 Bat-Sheva St. POB 87, LOD 71100 Israel Tel

[PSES] Anti-islanding relay

2014-07-16 Thread Boštjan Glavič
Dear experts, Does anyone know if anti- islanding relay in power inverter also needs to disconnect a neutral conductor of 3W system? I have looked in UL 1741 and couldn't find any requirement. Thank you for your support. With best regards, Bostjan Boštjan Glavič Vodja laboratorija,

Bostjan Switching  off neutral is not required, only the three phases. The pass criteria is  that you must cease exporting power by means of a disconnection in the allotted time. Thanks, - doug Douglas Powell http://www.linkedin.com/in/dougp01     Original Message   From: Boštjan Glavič

Hello Bostjan, You might want to check utility accessible equipment because utility wants to integrate its use into their standard practices and procedures. Thank you. Best regards, Bin From: Doug Powell doug...@gmail.com To: EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG, Date:

Certainly am NOT an expert on this stuff, or anything else for that matter, but tend to agree with Mr. Powell. In general, think that the much of the anti-islanding hoopla is non-issue (except for first-responders), but some POCOs seem to believe otherwise. Have seen stuff similar to this in

For years I assumed the anti-islanding requirement was to ensure distributed generation (DG) goes offline when the main utility generating station also went offline or out of spec, as a safety feature to allow line workers to safely do their jobs.    After thinking it over, I had to ask

And IEEE1547 doesn't required a disconnection for unintentional islanding, merely that the DG ceases to energize the local electrical power system. (stop a negative power flow from the DG) Some utilities in the USA and in Canada are suggesting that 500ms is a better response time, to
