Problem with power sharing

Recommended Posts

I am used to using the power sharing function, but this time it is not working.

I define my sub arrays

I use the power sharing function (everything works fine)

I start the simulation, but the power sharing is not taken into account, and it is not saved after the simulation is done.

Is this a bug or a miss used of myself?

 

Thank you for your help ?

This looks indeed strange. The definitions are all correct, but it seems that the information was not propagated to the variant.

I have not seen this before, would it be possible to export this project and send it to support@pvsyst.com, so that we can check why this is happening?

I have been having the same issue. While doing the Power Sharing in the SYSTEM Tab, - all seems fine. But after running the simulation the PNOM reverts back to the "non-powering sharing" value.

See my screenshots below

From my experience, it seems to only happen when more than one inverter type is used.

Yes of course, can you explain the procedure? 
What file do you need?

To export the project, please go to 'Files-> Export projects' in the main window. Select the project and click on 'Export'. This will create a single file with .zip extension, that you can e-mail to us.

The source of the problem has been identified. We did not handle correctly all cases when you add or remove sub-arrays to a system that is already configured for power sharing. As a consequence, it is possible to end up with some of the sub-arrays that are included in the power sharing configurations, but which are not flagged as using power sharing. The power sharing configurations of these sub-arrays will be reset when starting the simulation.

As a workaround, you can uncheck and check again the box at the top of the power sharing configuration:

This will force all flags in the sub-arrays to their correct state, and the problem will be gone.

We will secure the code such that these inconsistent states cannot happen any more.
