Professional Photovoltaics Trainer (PV)
This solar trainer allows the passage of the sun to be simulated realistically. This makes it possible to conduct
experiments in the lab in practical fashion without any need for the sun itself. The design of photovoltaic systems
operating in parallel with the electric power grid is realistic. In order to stabilise the electricity grid, the techniques
of derating the power inverter and controllable local transformers are used.
Knowledge and practical skills along with computer-based assessment of measured data are made possible by
the professional photovoltaics multimedia course along with SCADA Power Lab software.
