Distributed energy resources (DER)require reliable anti-islanding protection for secure grid integration.
OMICRON’s ARCO Control 1.60 software update boosts the ARCO 400’s capabilities for testing distributed energy resources (DER). New pulse ramp-based testing supports two-stage voltage and frequency protection. Advanced features include vector shift and rate-of-change-of-frequency (RoCoF) testing via phase angle and frequency gradient simulation. Pre-fault signal settings enable realistic fault scenarios, and extended trip timers facilitate testing of solar installations. Guided workflows simplify test execution, and customizable PDF reports ensure clear documentation. This latest release strengthens the ARCO 400’s capabilities for precise and efficient testing of DER protection.
