3.3.- CONTROLLING THE MAXIMUM POWER

One of the functions of the

Dispenser is to control the limits of the power that can be consumed

by the user.

The unit limits the maximum power available according to the type of contract and status of the

micro-grid. If this power level is exceeded, the general relay is opened, disconnecting the power

supply from the subscriber. (

5.2.4.1.- GENERAL RELAY

)

This function allows each user of the installation to define the maximum power available, estab-

lishing the number of loads that can be connected to the grid. Therefore, this limiter can be used

to ensure that the power for which the electrical network has been designed is never exceeded.

The

Contracted power is defined in the DISPENSER-SOFT application as:

Contracted power = Base power x Power multiplier�

Where:

Base power : base power of the micro-grid.

Power multiplier : multiplier factor that depends on the type of contract.

The maximum power value is modified according to the status of the micro-grid.

3�3�1�- NORMAL MODE

In this operating mode, the maximum power that can be consumed by the user is equal to the

contracted power.
