It has been reported that the EN 50438:2013 has some new functionalities that are not yet a

13、vailable in current state-of-the art micro-generators. Question What considerations should be made when using EN 50438:2013 instead of EN 50438:2007? Interpretation: When a CENELEC standard is published, it contains a date of publication and a date of withdrawal defining the timeframe within which t

14、he national standards should be adapted to this new CENELEC standard. Generally, the date of withdrawal is about 2 years after the date of publication creating an overlap period where the new standard can co-exist with a conflicting one. In the specific case where a standard has been revised, differ

15、ent versions of a same standard can therefore co-exist. This is the case for EN 50438. The latest version has been available since December 2013 and until the date of withdrawal (2016-11-04), the previous version of 2007 can still be applied. In the EN 50438:2013 version, the two most significant ch

16、anges in the technical requirements to the EN 50438:2007 version are the following: introduction of a power reduction capability in case of over-frequency; introduction of reactive power capability TC 8X wants to emphasize that the over-frequency response requirements as described in EN 50438:2013 a

17、re important for grid stability and should be applied as soon as possible. The over-frequency response function is commonly implemented in the considered range of generating units. However, there are other new requirements (e.g. providing reactive power) which are actually not yet commonly implement

18、ed in the considered range of generating units. For these new requirements, the industry might need appropriate time to modify their products. Often micro-generators are also certified by independent certification bodies which adds more time to the manufacturing and testing process. For the implemen

19、tation of these requirements, a period of at least 18 months is considered reasonable. These aspects should be considered when using EN 50438:2013 instead of EN 50438:2007. When using EN 50438:2013, there may be a need to wait up to July 2015 for the application of Subclause 4.3.1. BS EN 50438:2013E

28、When using EN 50438:2013, there may be a need to wait up to July 2015 for the application of Subclause 4.3.1. EN 50438:2013/IS1:2015 4 2 Interpretation on power response to over-frequency 2.1 Subclause 4.2.5 Power response to over-frequency of EN 50438:2013 It has been reported that the function of

29、the intentional delay to the power response to over frequency may be differently interpreted. The generator shall be capable of activating active power frequency response as fast as technically feasible with an initial delay that shall be as short as possible with a maximum of 2 s. If the initial de

30、lay is below 2 s an intentional delay shall be programmable to adjust the total response time to a value between the initial response time and 2 s. It is not clear from the above paragraph of Subclause 4.2.5 whether the programmable intentional delay is a permanent delay (dead time) within the funct

31、ion or whether it is only a delay to start the execution of the function. 2.2 Question: Is the intentional delay integrated into the control loop (dead time) of the active power setpoint in case of over-frequency or is it only delaying the activation of the active power control? 2.3 Interpretation:

32、With the provision described in Subclause 4.2.5 of EN 50438:2013, the intentional delay is only active for the activation of the function, once the function is operating, the established control loop is not intentionally delayed. NOTE 1 The option of an intentional delay is required since a very fas

33、t and undelayed active power frequency response in case of islanding would correct any excess of generation leading to a generation-consumption balance. In these circumstances, an islanding situation with stable frequency would take place, in which the correct behaviour of any LoM detection based on

34、 frequency might be hindered. NOTE 2 The intentional delay is considered relevant for power system stability. For that reason legal regulations might require a mutual agreement on the setting between DSO and TSO. BS EN 50438:2013EN 50438:2013/IS1:2015BS EN 50438:2013EN 50438:2013 - 2 - Contents Fore
