| Abstract: | AC module technology has become popular and a number of AC module types are commercially available. Although their specifications are clear, it seems that their technological meaning has not yet been well developed. Therefore, the authors tried to create the total concepts of PV systems composed of AC modules. They are abbreviated AC module-composed PV system or ACM-PV. In the paper, the possible structural configurations of simple AC modules and battery integrated ones are classified in principle. System categories are also classified to show their total concept. Necessary electrical terminals and interfaces, voltage matching method between inverter and PV part, and AC module testing methods are also discussed. |
