This document specifies test procedures for confirming the basic operational characteristics of power conversion equipment (PCE) for use in photovoltaic (PV) power systems with or without energy storage. The basic operational characteristics are the capability of the PCE before any limitations due to internal settings are applied to the PCE to meet specific grid support functions or specific behaviours against abnormal changes. This document covers the testing of following items: a) Steady state characteristics Test procedures to confirm operable range of PCE at steady state condition are described. The operable ranges in apparent power, active power, reactive power, power factor, grid voltage and grid frequency shall be confirmed according to the test procedures. b) Transient-response characteristics Test procedures to confirm PCE’s response against a change of operational condition are described. Transient-response characteristics to be confirmed are response behaviours against; • Active power set point change and reactive power set point change • Grid voltage change, phase angle change, voltage unbalance and frequency change This document only considers the changes within normal (continuous) operable ranges. Therefore, the behaviours against abnormal changes and grid support functions are out of the scope and are covered in other parts of this series of International Standards
