AEEG 421 Remote Monitoring
What is AEEG 421 remote monitoring?
The facilities subject to the resolution are those powered by wind or photovoltaic solar sources with a power equal to or greater than 100 kW, connected or to be connected to medium-voltage networks for which a connection request was submitted before January 1, 2013. Such facilities were required to comply with the provisions of Paragraph 8.8.6.5 and Annex M of the CEI 0-16 Standard Edition III by January 31, 2016, or by the subsequent commissioning date, if later. The CEI 0-16 standard in paragraph 8.8.6 (network services) indeed provides that to ensure safety in all operating conditions of the Medium (and High) voltage network, Active Users with generators connected to the MV network are required to provide the network services specified in Table 7 and in particular, for wind and static generator plants, they must participate in the defense plans indicated in paragraph 8.8.6.5.
The EASY FV device, WALL model or DIN model, meets the requirements of the resolution of the Authority for Electricity, Gas, and Water Systems, aimed at ensuring the safety of the national electrical system. The resolution requires the mandatory installation of a remote disconnection telecontrol system, managed by the network owner for production plants (photovoltaic/wind/cogeneration) with a power equal to or greater than 100 kW. EASY FV can be directly connected to the SPI interface and, through remote commands provided and compliant with the directive, can intervene in disconnection and remote diagnosis.
