Technical regulations for connecting PV

systems to the distribution grid

Technical regulation 3.2.2 for PV power plants above 11 kW

The electricity supply undertaking

• is responsible for setting emission limits in the Point of Connection.

• must agree on a schedule for determining emission limits with grid connection applicants.

Plant owner

• must ensure that the PV power plant is designed, constructed and configured in observance of the specified emission limits without grid reinforcements being required.

• may, according to agreement, purchase supplementary services from the electricity supply undertaking to ensure compliance with the specified limit values.

PV plants categorized based onrated power

The technical requirements of the regulation are divided into the following categories based on the total rated power in the Point of Connection:

• A2. Plants above 11 kW up to and including 50 kW

• B. Plants above 50 kW up to and including 1. 5 MW

• C. Plants above 1.5 MW up to and including 25 MW

• D. Plants above 25 kW or connected to over 100 kV

The requirements concern: DC-content, asymmetry, fast voltage changes, flicker, harmonic disturbances, interharmonic disturbances, disturbances 2 - 9 kHz.
