Description of the structure of the power generation unit:
The power generation unit is equipped with a PV and line-side EMC filter. The power generation unit has no galvanic isolation
between DC input and AC output. Output switch-off is performed with single-fault tolerance based on two series-connected relays
in each line and neutral. This enables a safe disconnection of the power generation unit from the network in case of error.
The above stated Generating Units are tested according the requirements in the Engineering Recommendation G98/NI. Any
modification that affects the stated tests must be named by the manufacturer/supplier of the product to ensure that the product
meets all requirements of the Engineering Recommendation G98/NI.

Note. For Voltage tests the Voltage required to trip is the setting ±3,45V. The time delay can be measured at a larger deviation
than the minimum required to operate the protection. The No trip tests need to be carried out at the setting ±4V and for the relevant
times as shown in the table above to ensure that the protection will not trip in error.
