DC input Connection point from solar array to inverter. One input consists of one positive and
one negative terminal.
EMC Electromagnetic compatibility
FENA Optional Ethernet adapter module for EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP and PROFINET IO
protocols.
Frame (size) Relates to the construction type of the component in question. The term is often used
in reference to a group of components that share a similar mechanical construction.
FSCA Optional Modbus RTU adapter module
HMI Human-machine interface
IGBT Insulated gate bipolar transistor; a voltage-controlled semiconductor type widely used
in inverters due to its easy controllability and high switching frequency.
Inverter A cabinet-built device containing all inverter modules together with their control
electronics, and I/O and auxiliary components. The inverter module converts the DC
voltage to AC voltage. Its operation is controlled by switching the IGBTs.
I/O Input/Output
MCB Miniature circuit breaker
MGND Solar array functional grounding unit
MIRU Solar array insulation resistance measuring unit
MPPT Maximum power point tracking. Inverter software function that automatically operates
the photovoltaic generator at its maximum power point.
