This appendix describes the error messages that are specific to the photovoltaic solution.


The errors appear on the LCD panel when an error occurs.
Backup Consumption Too High
The inverter production stopped due to excessive backup load consumption.
The connected loads exceed the product rating.
Shutdown non-essential loads to reduce power consumption.
The inverter production stopped due to excessive backup load consumption.

la charge de l'alimentation de secours
Explanation:
backup inverters : onduleurs + batteries

" Some people have loads that need continuous power—like medical equipment, refrigeration, or lighting. For those folks, battery backup inverters are necessary. These inverters are connected to batteries, which store energy to back up the grid. Although batteries are not the only option available, they are the most reliable and economical choice for these systems. Devices like flywheels and supercapacitors are being developed and tested. For now, deep-cycle batteries are the best solution for PV systems that need energy storage."

"For example, assume that the backup load daily requirement is 8,000 Wh. First, correct for inverter loss by dividing by 0.85. This gives you 9,412 DC Wh per day. Dividing this by the nominal battery voltage of 48 equals 196 Ah per day. For an 80% depth of discharge, divide by 0.80, which equals 245 Ah per day. Multiply that by 4 days of autonomy (this home tends to be among the last reconnected to the grid after an outage) for a total of 980 Ah—the minimum size battery needed."

charge consommation


Explanation:
La puissance de la charge est 15W. Soit une énergie consommée sur 12h de 180Wh. - http://search.yahoo.com/yhs/search?hspart=ddc&hsimp=yhs-ddc_...

mes excuses. La réponse est incomlète: On dira
sauvegarde de charge de consommation
ou
backup de charge de consommation
Pour recharger les piles de sauvegarde, placez le bouton d'alimentation sur ON. - http://www.linguee.fr/francais-anglais/search?source=auto&qu...

Notes to answerer
Asker: Your answer has nothing to do with the context of the translation. The text has to do with a Photovoltaic system, not SMS backup (please read context). Thank you for your time.

agree  Tony M: For some reason, the s/t says 'la consommation de la charge de secours' — but without further context, it's hard to see why that would be significant?
