Description
Beschreibungdescription
Solarwechselrichter und Photovoltaikanlage mit mehreren SolarwechselrichternSolar inverter and photovoltaic system with several solar inverters
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Solarwechselrichter, welcher ein- gangsseitig an zumindest einem Photovoltaikgenerator und aus- gangsseitig an ein elektrisches Netz, insbesondere an ein öffentliches Netz anschließbar ist und zumindest ein Wechselrichtermodul, eine elektronische Steuereinheit zumindest zur Diagnose eines Wechselrichtermoduls und eine Busanschaltung zur datentechnischen Verbindung der elektronischen Steuereinheit mit einem Kommunikationsbus aufweist.The invention relates to a solar inverter which can be connected on the input side to at least one photovoltaic generator and on the output side to an electrical network, in particular to a public network, and at least one inverter module, an electronic control unit at least for diagnosing an inverter module and a bus connection for data connection Electronic control unit with a communication bus.
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Photovoltaikanlage zur Einspeisung in ein elektrisches Netz, insbesondere in eine öffentliches elektrisches Netz mit mehreren Solarwechselrichtern, an welchen zumindest ein Photovoltaikgenerator anschließbar ist.The invention relates to a photovoltaic system for feeding into an electrical network, in particular into a public electrical network with a plurality of solar inverters, to which at least one photovoltaic generator can be connected.
Photovoltaikanlagen dienen der Einspeisung von elektrischem Strom in ein elektrisches Netz, wie z.B. in ein 1-phasiges 5OHz/230V-Spannungsnetz oder in ein 3-phasiges 50Hz/400V-Span- nungsnetz. Dazu können Photovoltaikanlagen ein oder mehrere Pho- tovoltaikgeneratoren aufweisen, wobei ein Photovoltaikgenerator aus einem oder mehreren Solarmodulen bestehen kann, welches bzw. welche wiederum eine Vielzahl von untereinander verschalteten Solarzellen aufweisen können. Dabei werden üblicherweise die Solarzellen eines Solarmoduls als "String" in Reihe, insbesondere mäanderförmig geschaltet. Der auf photovoltaischem Weg erzeugte elektrische Strom wird dann einem oder mehreren Solarwechselrichtern zugeführt, welcher oder welche die zugeführte Gleichspannung in eine geregelte standardisierte Netzspannung umwandeln. Derartige Solarwechselrichter sind für 1-phasige Ausführungen z.B. in der DE 196 42 522 Cl bekannt.
Eine Photovoltaikanlage kann zudem eine Anlagenleitebene zur Steuerung und Betriebsführung von mehreren angeschlossenen Solarwechselrichtern aufweisen.Photovoltaic systems are used to feed electrical current into an electrical network, such as a 1-phase 5OHz / 230V voltage network or a 3-phase 50Hz / 400V voltage network. For this purpose, photovoltaic systems can have one or more photovoltaic generators, wherein a photovoltaic generator can consist of one or more solar modules, which in turn can have a large number of interconnected solar cells. The solar cells of a solar module are usually connected in series as a "string", in particular in a meandering shape. The electrical current generated in a photovoltaic way is then fed to one or more solar inverters, which convert the supplied DC voltage into a regulated, standardized mains voltage. Such solar inverters are known for 1-phase versions, for example in DE 196 42 522 Cl. A photovoltaic system can also have a system control level for controlling and operating several connected solar inverters.
Bei Photovoltaikanlagen kann es - wie generell bei technischen Geräten - vorkommen, dass einzelne oder auch mehrere Solarwechselrichter aufgrund eines technischen Defekts ausfallen. Wird dieser Defekt von der Anlagensteuerung nicht erkannt, so führt dies zu Ertragseinbußen und letztlich zu finanziellen Einbußen der Anlagenbetreiber .In the case of photovoltaic systems - as is generally the case with technical devices - it can happen that one or more solar inverters fail due to a technical defect. If this defect is not recognized by the plant control system, this leads to a loss of earnings and ultimately to a financial loss for the plant operator.
Zur Vermeidung der o.g. Problematik ist es bekannt, in der Anlage ein Überwachungsgerät vorzusehen, welches die jeweiligen Solarwechselrichter überwacht und welches zeitnah den Ausfall eines solchen Geräts an eine Melde- oder Leitstelle meldet. Hierzu kann ein solches Überwachungsgerät z.B. mit einer Meldeeinrichtung zur Weiterleitung der erfassten Fehlermeldung verbunden sein, wie z.B. mit einem funkgestützten GSM-Modul sein.To avoid the above It is known to provide a monitoring device in the system which monitors the respective solar inverters and which promptly reports the failure of such a device to a reporting or control center. For this purpose, such a monitoring device can e.g. be connected to a reporting device for forwarding the detected error message, e.g. with a radio-based GSM module.
Eine andere technische Lösung sieht vor, die jeweiligen Solarwechselrichter zyklisch mittels eines PCs, d.h. eines "Personal Computers" abzufragen. Der PC selbst ist dabei über eine Telefonverbindung oder über eine Ethernetverbindung mit den zumeist weit entfernt gelegenen Geräten verbunden. Eine spezielle Software-Applikation auf dem PC führt regelmäßig die Statusabfrage der einzelnen Solarwechselrichter durch. Im Fehlerfall erhält der Betreiber der Anlage dann eine geeignete Meldung.Another technical solution provides for the respective solar inverters to be cyclically operated using a PC, i.e. to query a "personal computer". The PC itself is connected to the mostly distant devices via a telephone connection or an Ethernet connection. A special software application on the PC regularly checks the status of the individual solar inverters. In the event of a fault, the operator of the system then receives a suitable message.
Nachteilig an der ersten beschriebenen Lösung ist, dass ein separates Überwachungsgerät vorzusehen ist, welches für den Betreiber einer Photovoltaikanlage eine zusätzliche Investition darstellt.A disadvantage of the first solution described is that a separate monitoring device has to be provided, which represents an additional investment for the operator of a photovoltaic system.
Nachteilig an der zweiten Lösung ist, dass ein zusätzlicher PC mit einer speziellen Software-Applikation benötigt wird, um eine regelmäßige Überprüfung der Anlage durchführen zu können.
Es ist somit eine Aufgabe der Erfindung, einen Solarwechselrichter sowie eine Photovoltaikanlage anzugeben, welche ohne die o.g. zusätzlichen Überwachungsgeräte auskommt.The disadvantage of the second solution is that an additional PC with a special software application is required in order to be able to carry out a regular check of the system. It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a solar inverter and a photovoltaic system which does not require the above-mentioned additional monitoring devices.
Die Aufgabe wird gelöst mit einem Solarwechselrichter, welcher eingangsseitig an zumindest einem Photovoltaikgenerator und aus- gangsseitig an ein elektrisches Netz anschließbar ist und zumindest ein Wechselrichtermodul, eine elektronische Steuereinheit zumindest zur Diagnose eines Wechselrichtermoduls sowie eine Busanschaltung zur datentechnischen Verbindung der elektronischen Steuereinheit mit einem Kommunikationsbus aufweist.The object is achieved with a solar inverter which can be connected on the input side to at least one photovoltaic generator and on the output side to an electrical network and has at least one inverter module, an electronic control unit at least for diagnosing an inverter module and a bus connection for data technology connection of the electronic control unit to a communication bus ,
Erfindungsgemäß weist die elektronische Steuereinheit Mittel zur zyklischen Ausgabe einer Statusinformation des jeweiligen Solarwechselrichters auf den Kommunikationsbus, Mittel zum zyklischen Auslesen von Statusinformationen weiterer an den Kommunikationsbus angeschlossener Solarwechselrichter sowie Mittel zur Ausgabe einer Fehlermeldung auf den Kommunikationsbus im Falle des Ausbleibens von zumindest einer erwarteten weiteren Statusinformation auf.According to the invention, the electronic control unit has means for cyclically outputting status information of the respective solar inverter to the communication bus, means for cyclically reading out status information of further solar inverters connected to the communications bus, and means for outputting an error message to the communications bus in the event that at least one expected further status information is not available ,
Durch die gegenseitige Überwachung mehrerer an den Kommunikationsbus angeschlossener Solarwechselrichter ist eine zeitnahe De- tektion eines ausgefallenen Solarwechselrichters, welcher sich nun zyklisch nicht mehr melden kann, möglich. Dadurch kann vorteilhaft auf eine separate Überwachungseinheit verzichtet werden.By mutually monitoring several solar inverters connected to the communication bus, a timely detection of a failed solar inverter, which can no longer report cyclically, is possible. A separate monitoring unit can thus advantageously be dispensed with.
Die Statusinformation kann im einfachsten Fall eine 1-Bit-Infor- mation sein, welche anzeigt, ob das jeweilige Wechselrichtermodul ordnungsgemäß arbeitet oder nicht. Darüber hinaus können z.B. auch der aktuell eingangsseitig in das Wechselrichtermodul fließende Solargleichstrom, die am angeschlossenen Photovoltaikgenerator anliegende Spannung sowie der in das elektrische Netz aktuell eingespeiste Netzstrom als Datenwert auf den Kommunikationsbus zyklisch ausgegeben werden.
In einer ersten Ausführungsform weist der Solarwechselrichter eine eindeutige Busadresse auf, so dass dieser über die Busanschaltung direkt adressiert werden kann. Dadurch kann z.B. im Rahmen der Inbetriebnahme der Photovoltaikanlage jeder einzelne Solarwechselrichter parametriert und konfiguriert werden. Dies kann z.B. mittels eines mobilen Diagnosegeräts erfolgen, welches während der Inbetriebnahme an den Kommunikationsbus angeschlossen wird.In the simplest case, the status information can be 1-bit information, which indicates whether the respective inverter module is working properly or not. In addition, for example, the solar direct current currently flowing on the input side into the inverter module, the voltage applied to the connected photovoltaic generator and the grid current currently fed into the electrical network can be cyclically output as data value on the communication bus. In a first embodiment, the solar inverter has a unique bus address so that it can be addressed directly via the bus connection. This means, for example, that each individual solar inverter can be parameterized and configured when commissioning the photovoltaic system. This can be done using a mobile diagnostic device, for example, which is connected to the communication bus during commissioning.
In einer weiteren Ausführungsform weist die elektronische Steuereinheit des jeweiligen Solarwechselrichters Mittel zur zyklischen Ausgabe der Statusinformation sowie der eindeutigen Busadresse des Solarwechselrichters auf den Kommunikationsbus auf.In a further embodiment, the electronic control unit of the respective solar inverter has means for the cyclical output of the status information and the unique bus address of the solar inverter on the communication bus.
Dadurch kann vorteilhaft im Fehlerfall über die Busadresse ein sich nun nicht mehr meldender Solarwechselrichter zugeordnet und eine entsprechende Fehlermeldung abgesetzt werden.As a result, a solar inverter that is no longer reporting can advantageously be assigned via the bus address in the event of an error and a corresponding error message can be issued.
Auch ist es vorteilhaft möglich, dass bei Vorliegen von nicht plausiblen Statusinformationen der jeweiligen Solarwechselrichter eine Fehlermeldung abgesetzt wird. Dies kann z.B. dann der Fall sein, wenn alle anderen Solarwechselrichter eine in etwa gleiche Einspeiseleistung, d.h. z.B. in etwa den gleichen Prozentwert von der jeweils maximal möglichen Einspeiseleistung, aufweisen und z.B. ein weiterer Solarwechselrichter einen i.Vgl. dazu geringen oder gar keinen Solarstrom meldet. Ursache kann hier z.B. ein Ausfall eines Solarmoduls des Photovoltaikgenera- tors, eine Leiterunterbrechung in den Zuführungsleitungen zum Photovoltaikgenerator oder größere Verschmutzungen eines Solarmoduls oder weniger Solarmodule sein.It is also advantageously possible for an error message to be issued if there is implausible status information for the respective solar inverter. This can e.g. then be the case if all other solar inverters have approximately the same feed-in power, i.e. e.g. have approximately the same percentage of the maximum possible feed-in power, and e.g. another solar inverter has a. reports little or no solar power. The cause can be e.g. a failure of a solar module of the photovoltaic generator, an interruption in the conductors in the feed lines to the photovoltaic generator, or major contamination of a solar module or fewer solar modules.
In einer weiteren Ausführungsform weist die elektronische Steuereinheit einen elektronischen Speicher, wie z.B. einen RAM- oder EEPROM-Speicher zur Ablage der jeweiligen Busadressen der weiteren sich über den Kommunikationsbus zyklisch meldenden Solarwechselrichter aufweist. Hierzu kann z.B. während der Inbetriebnahme oder einer Erweiterung der Photovoltaikanlage für ei-
ne gewisse Zeitspanne, wie z.B. von einer Minute, eine Erfassung der Busadressen aller sich zyklisch meldenden Solarwechselrichter erfolgen. Diese Busadressen können dann in Form einer Liste in dem o.g. elektronischen Speicher abgelegt werden. Bei Ausfall eines Solarwechselrichters ist dann diese Busadresse durch Vergleich ermittelbar.In a further embodiment, the electronic control unit has an electronic memory, such as a RAM or EEPROM memory, for storing the respective bus addresses of the other solar inverters which report cyclically via the communication bus. For example, during commissioning or expansion of the photovoltaic system for a ne a certain period of time, such as one minute, the bus addresses of all cyclically reporting solar inverters are recorded. These bus addresses can then be stored in the form of a list in the above-mentioned electronic memory. If a solar inverter fails, this bus address can then be determined by comparison.
Gemäß einer Ausführungsform ist die Zykluszeit zur zyklischen Ausgabe der Statusinformation auf den Kommunikationsbus und/oder die Zykluszeit zum zyklischen Auslesen der weiteren Statusinformationen einstellbar. Diese Werte können z.B. im Rahmen der Inbetriebnahme im elektronischen Speicher der elektronischen Steuereinheit hinterlegt werden. Die Zykluszeiten können z.B. im Bereich von wenigen Sekunden bis zu wenigen Minuten betragen, so dass dennoch zeitnah eine Absetzung einer Fehlermeldung erfolgen kann. Wird während der Inbetriebnahme keine Zykluszeit zugewiesen, so wird die hinterlegte Standardzeit verwendet.According to one embodiment, the cycle time for the cyclical output of the status information on the communication bus and / or the cycle time for the cyclical readout of the further status information can be set. These values can e.g. be stored in the electronic memory of the electronic control unit during commissioning. The cycle times can e.g. range from a few seconds to a few minutes, so that an error message can still be issued promptly. If no cycle time is assigned during commissioning, the stored standard time is used.
Die elektronische Steuereinheit ist insbesondere ein Mikrocont- roller. Derartige MikroController weisen dabei zum Teil auch bereits einen integrierten elektronischen Speicher zur möglichen Ablage der o.g. Busadressen auf. Mittels eines auf dem Mikro- controller ausführbaren Softwareprogramms ist es auch möglich, sowohl die Steuerung, die Regelung sowie die Diagnose des damit verbundenen Wechselrichtermoduls durchzuführen. Bekannte Mikro- controller weisen u.a. analoge wie auch digitale Ein- und Ausgabekanäle auf. Mittels der Eingabekanäle können vorteilhaft die elektrischen Eingangsgrößen wie Strom und Spannung eines angeschlossenen Photovoltaikgenerators und/oder des elektrischen Netzes über eine Anpassschaltung direkt eingelesen und verarbeitet werden.The electronic control unit is in particular a microcontroller. Such microcontrollers sometimes already have an integrated electronic memory for possible storage of the above. Bus addresses. Using a software program that can be executed on the microcontroller, it is also possible to carry out both the control, the regulation and the diagnosis of the associated inverter module. Known microcontrollers include analog as well as digital input and output channels. By means of the input channels, the electrical input variables such as current and voltage of a connected photovoltaic generator and / or the electrical network can advantageously be read in and processed directly via an adaptation circuit.
Häufig verfügen die Mikrocontroller auch bereits über eine integrierte Busanschaltung. Im einfachsten Fall kann dies z.B. ein sogenannter SPI-Port für "Serial Port Interface" sein.
In einer weiteren Ausführungsform kann die Busanschaltung zur Kommunikation z.B. mit einem CAN-BUS, einem LAN, einem RS232- Bus, einem RS485-Bus oder einem USB ausgebildet sein. Diese Aufzählung ist nicht abschließend. Weitere Bussysteme sind dem Fachmann bekannt.The microcontrollers often already have an integrated bus interface. In the simplest case, this can be, for example, a so-called SPI port for "serial port interface". In a further embodiment, the bus interface can be designed for communication, for example with a CAN bus, a LAN, an RS232 bus, an RS485 bus or a USB. This list is not exhaustive. Other bus systems are known to the person skilled in the art.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung wird weiterhin gelöst mit einer Photovoltaikanlage zur Einspeisung in ein elektrisches Netz mit zumindest einem erfindungsgemäßen Solarwechselrichter, an dem zumindest ein Photovoltaikgenerator anschließbar ist.The object of the invention is further achieved with a photovoltaic system for feeding into an electrical network with at least one solar inverter according to the invention, to which at least one photovoltaic generator can be connected.
In einer besonderen Ausführungsform weist die Photovoltaikanlage ein elektronisches Meldemodul auf, welches eine Busanschaltung zur datentechnischen Verbindung mit dem Kommunikationsbus, Mittel zum Empfang einer von einem Solarwechselrichter stammenden Fehlermeldung sowie Mittel zum Senden der Fehlermeldung an eine Melde- oder Leitstelle umfasst.In a special embodiment, the photovoltaic system has an electronic signaling module which comprises a bus connection for data connection to the communication bus, means for receiving an error message from a solar inverter and means for sending the error message to a signaling or control center.
Hierzu kann das Meldemodul z.B. eine GSM- und/oder ein UMTS-Sen- de-/Empfangsmodul, ein Modem zum Anschluss an eine Telefonnetz oder ein Gateway zum Anschluss an ein "Local Area Network", d.h. an ein LAN aufweisen.For this, the message module can e.g. a GSM and / or a UMTS transmitter / receiver module, a modem for connection to a telephone network or a gateway for connection to a "Local Area Network", i.e. on a LAN.
Damit ist der große Vorteil verbunden, dass zum einen das Meldemodul äußerst kompakt realisiert werden kann, da die zur Überwachung der jeweiligen Solarwechselrichter erforderlichen elektronischen Komponenten und Funktionsgruppen nicht erforderlich sind. Möglich ist es auch, das Meldemodul in der Art auszugestalten, dass dieses eine elektronische Anzeige zur Darstellung der zyklisch von den jeweiligen Solarwechselrichter gesandten Statusinformationen aufweist. Weist das Meldemodul weiterhin Eingabetasten auf, so sind auch unterschiedliche darzustellende Statusinformationen auswählbar.This has the great advantage that, on the one hand, the signaling module can be implemented in an extremely compact manner, since the electronic components and functional groups required for monitoring the respective solar inverters are not required. It is also possible to design the signaling module in such a way that it has an electronic display for displaying the status information sent cyclically by the respective solar inverter. If the message module still has input buttons, different status information to be displayed can also be selected.
In einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Photovoltaikanlage weist das Meldemodul elektronische Mittel, wie z.B. einen einfachen MikroController auf, um die von den jeweiligen
Solarwechselrichtern empfangene Fehlermeldung in eine entsprechende E-Mail, in ein Fax oder in eine SMS zu konvertieren.In a particularly advantageous embodiment of the photovoltaic system, the signaling module has electronic means, such as, for example, a simple microcontroller, in order to control those of the respective Convert the error message received from solar inverters into a corresponding e-mail, fax or SMS.
Damit ist der Vorteil verbunden, dass die Fehlermeldung zeitnah und im Klartext direkt vor Ort an eine zuständige Person übermittelt werden kann. Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, wenn die Fehlermeldung als Klartext an ein Mobiltelefon weitergeleitet wird, welches die zu überwachende Person üblicherweise mit sich führt.This has the advantage that the error message can be transmitted promptly and in plain text directly to a responsible person on site. It is particularly advantageous if the error message is forwarded in plain text to a mobile phone which the person to be monitored usually carries with him.
In einer weiteren Variante verfügt der Solarwechselrichter über die elektronischen Mittel, um direkt eine Fehlermeldung in eine E-Mail, in ein Fax oder in eine SMS zu konvertieren.In a further variant, the solar inverter has the electronic means to convert an error message directly into an email, a fax or an SMS.
Die Erfindung wird an Hand der nachfolgenden einzigen Figur beispielhaft näher erläutert.The invention is illustrated by way of example with reference to the following single figure.
Dabei zeigt die Figur eine erfindungsgemäße Photovoltaikanlage PVA, welche beispielhaft drei Photovoltaikgeneratoren SM1-SM3 aufweist. Aus Gründen der Übersichtlichkeit ist deren interner Aufbau nicht weiter dargestellt. Die Photovoltaikgeneratoren SM1-SM3 speisen dabei in je einen Solarwechselrichter M1-M3. Im Beispiel der Figur verfügt jeder Solarwechselrichter M1-M3 über ein Wechselrichtermodul WR, welches eingangsseitig mit einem Photovoltaikgenerator SM1-SM3 verbunden ist. Dabei wird der Solargleichstrom in eine einphasige Wechselspannung umgewandelt. Aus Sicherheitsgründen kann, wie bereits im vorliegenden Beispiel erfolgt, diese Spannung potentialfrei gegenüber der Spannungsebene der Photovoltaikgeneratoren SM1-SM3 sein.The figure shows a photovoltaic system PVA according to the invention, which has three photovoltaic generators SM1-SM3 by way of example. For the sake of clarity, their internal structure is not shown any further. The SM1-SM3 photovoltaic generators each feed into one M1-M3 solar inverter. In the example of the figure, each solar inverter M1-M3 has an inverter module WR, which is connected on the input side to a photovoltaic generator SM1-SM3. The solar direct current is converted into a single-phase alternating voltage. For safety reasons, as already done in the present example, this voltage can be potential-free compared to the voltage level of the photovoltaic generators SM1-SM3.
Im Beispiel der Figur speisen die drei Solarwechselrichter M1-M3 in je eine Phase R, S, T eines elektrischen Netzes SN ein, um eine in etwa gleichmäßige Leistungsverteilung in diesem Netz SN zu erreichen. Ein derartiges Netz SN ist insbesondere ein öffentliches 3-phasiges 50Hz/400V-Spannungsnetz . Mit N ist der allen drei einspeisenden Solarwechselrichtern M1-M3 gemeinsame Nullleiter bezeichnet.
Jeder Solarwechselrichter M1-M3 verfügt über einen Mikrocontroller μC als elektronische Steuereinheit. Dieser ist über elektrische Verbindungsleitungen zur Steuerung, Regelung und Überwachung bzw. Diagnose des zugehörigen Wechselrichtermoduls WR mit diesem verbunden.In the example of the figure, the three solar inverters M1-M3 each feed into a phase R, S, T of an electrical network SN in order to achieve an approximately uniform power distribution in this network SN. Such a network SN is in particular a public 3-phase 50 Hz / 400 V voltage network. N is the neutral conductor common to all three feeding solar inverters M1-M3. Each M1-M3 solar inverter has a microcontroller μC as an electronic control unit. This is connected to the inverter module WR via electrical connecting lines for controlling, regulating and monitoring or diagnosing the associated inverter module.
Im Beispiel der Figur ist zudem der Mikrocontroller μC mit einer Busanschaltung BA verbunden. Derartige Busanschaltung sind auch als integrierte Bauelemente erhältlich und auf den jeweiligen Kommunikationsbus zugeschnitten.In the example of the figure, the microcontroller μC is also connected to a bus interface BA. Such bus connections are also available as integrated components and tailored to the respective communication bus.
Gemäß der Erfindung weist der Mikrocontroller μC Mittel zur zyklischen Ausgabe einer Statusinformation S1-S3 des jeweiligen Solarwechselrichters M1-M3 auf den Kommunikationsbus BUS auf. Darüber hinaus verfügt der Mikrocontroller μC über Mittel zum zyklischen Auslesen von Statusinformationen SA von dem Kommunikationsbus BUS, welche die benachbarten bzw. die zur Gruppe der gemeinsam einspeisenden gehörenden Solarwechselrichter M1-M3 gleichfalls als deren Statusinformation S1-S3 auf den Kommunikationsbus Bus ausgeben. Schließlich weist der Mikrocontroller μC Mittel zur Ausgabe einer Fehlermeldung F auf den Kommunikations- bus BUS auf, falls zumindest eine erwartete Statusinformation SA der anderen Solarwechselrichter M1-M3 ausbleiben sollte.According to the invention, the microcontroller μC has means for the cyclical output of status information S1-S3 of the respective solar inverter M1-M3 on the communication bus BUS. In addition, the microcontroller μC has means for cyclically reading out status information SA from the communication bus BUS, which the neighboring solar inverters or the solar inverters M1-M3 belonging to the group of jointly feeding in also output as their status information S1-S3 to the communication bus bus. Finally, the microcontroller μC has means for outputting an error message F to the communication bus BUS if at least one expected status information SA of the other solar inverters M1-M3 should fail to appear.
Beispielhaft sind gemäß der vorliegenden Figur die Busadressen AD1-AD3 bereits in einem integrierten elektronischen Speicher des MikroControllers μC integriert.As an example, according to the present figure, the bus addresses AD1-AD3 are already integrated in an integrated electronic memory of the microcontroller μC.
Die Fehlermeldung F wird gemäß der Erfindung weitergeleitet an ein Meldemodul MM, welches gleichfalls über eine Busanschaltung BA mit dem Kommunikationsbus BUS datentechnisch verbunden ist. Im Beispiel der vorliegenden Figur weist das Meldemodul MM ein GSM-Sende-/Empfangsmodul GSM mit einer geeigneten Antenne ANT auf, um die ggf. textlich oder graphisch aufbereitete Fehlermeldung F in Form z.B. einer elektronischen Nachricht, wie z.B. einer SMS für "Short Message Service" an einen zuvor bestimmten Empfänger GS, wie z.B. an einen Servicetechniker weiterzuleiten.
Derartige Meldemodule MM auf GSM-Basis sind auch als käufliche Produkte erhältlich und müssen vorteilhaft nicht gesondert für die erfindungsgemäße Photovoltaikanlage PVA entwickelt werden.
According to the invention, the error message F is forwarded to a message module MM, which is likewise connected to the communication bus BUS for data processing purposes via a bus connection BA. In the example of the present figure, the message module MM has a GSM transmission / reception module GSM with a suitable antenna ANT in order to display the error message F, which may be text or graphically prepared, in the form of, for example, an electronic message, such as an SMS for "Short Message Service "to a previously determined recipient GS, such as a service technician. Such reporting modules MM based on GSM are also available as commercial products and advantageously do not have to be developed separately for the photovoltaic system PVA according to the invention.
