Disclaimer1 INTRODUCTION Installation and Operations Manual for Maldives’ Grid‑Connected Rooftop Photovoltaic Systems was prepared to support the implementation of grid-connected rooftop photovoltaic (PV) projects in the Republic of Maldives. The methods, approach, procedures, and instructions included in this manual are based on the terms and conditions prescribed in the “Regulation for Connecting Renewable Energy Systems to the Electricity Network on a Net Metering Basis 2020,” relevant International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), European Standards (EN), and Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers standards and global best practices. 1 This manual specifically supports utility engineers to verify and approve grid connection applications from eligible consumers for rooftop PV systems under net meter regulation. The manual provides guidelines for the verification of site details, PV system design information, bill of quantity, system documentation, etc. Though this manual is specified as “grid-connected rooftop PV systems,” it can be used and applied as a reference manual for any grid-connected PV system connected to a low-voltage grid network (220 volts [V] to 440 V). The manual provides detailed checklists for the verification of equipment, system design and planning, electrical and fire safety, mounting structure and system installation, and operation and maintenance practices during the post-installation inspection as per relevant standards, grid code requirements, and best practices. System performance evaluation methods and preventive maintenance advisories included in the manual intend to help utility engineers to monitor and manage rooftop PV systems as well. Ready-to-use application and connection agreement forms, checklists, and the list of equipment required for inspection will help the end users, supply and installation companies, project managers, and engineers of service providers to take swift and definitive action while implementing rooftop PV projects. The operations manual includes the following: (i) application form for the grid connection of rooftop PV systems by eligible consumers; (ii) verification and approval form by the service provider; (iii) technical specifications, standards, and installation requirements; (iv) documentation requirements; (v) warranty and guarantee terms for different components and quality of works; (vi) post-installation inspection and verification process and checklists; (vii) PV system performance evaluation method; (viii) preventive maintenance advisory; (ix) grid connection agreement form for rooftop PV systems; and (x) list of equipment required for inspection. 1 Government of Maldives, Utility Regulatory Authority. 2020. 2020/R ‑46 – Net Metering Regulation. 22 June. https://www.ura.gov.mv/downloads/net-metering-regulation-2020r-231/. 12 APPLICATION AND APPROVAL PROCESS application f orm for eligible Consumers for the Grid Connection of r ooftop photovoltaic s ystems Interested eligible consumers may use the following application form to request the grid connection of rooftop PV systems on a net metering basis. 1 Consumer 1.1 Full name: 1.2 Address: 1.3 Atoll/island: 1.4 Contact phone number: 1.5 E-mail address: 1.6 Account number of existing meter in the premises where the photovoltaic (PV) system is to be installed: 2 Installation a gent 2.1 Full name: 2.2 Address: 2.3 Contact phone number: 2.4 E-mail address: 2.5 License number issued by Utility Regulatory Authority (URA) to carry out electric works: 3 r ooftop pv s ystem details 3.1 Manufacturing date: 3.2 Type of PV technology (mono or poly-crystalline/cadmium telluride [CdTe] or copper indium gallium selenide [CIGS] thin film): 3.3 Type of inverter based on use of transformer (isolated/non-isolated): 2 continued on next pageApplication and Approval Process 3 3.4 Type of inverter based on interface with PV array (micro/string/optimizer based): 3.5 Power factor: 3.5 Rating (in kilowatt [kW] and kilovolt-ampere [kVA]): 3.6 Voltage (in volt [V]): 3.7 Frequency (in hertz [Hz]): 3.8 Estimated annual total electricity generation (in kilowatt-hour [kWh]): 4 site Installation details 4.1 A site plan drawn to scale of the location of installation must be submitted with this form. This plan must include the site boundaries, point of installation, meter location, and the connection point of the system to the service provider’s network. 4.2 A single line drawing with clear indications of the system’s electricity generator (PV inverter), meter, connection point, isolation devices, and safety devices must be submitted with this form. 4.3 Details of the system’s security measures to prevent “unintended islanding” a as follows: Ƀ Systems connected to the network shall be able to avoid “unintended islanding,” and in the event of unintended islanding, the system shall contain components able to prevent the service provider’s network from getting energized within 0.5 seconds. Ƀ In the event of an intentional or unintentional disconnection of the service provider’s network, the systems connected to the network shall automatically disconnect within 0.5 seconds. 5 schedule of w orks 5.1 Estimated date of commencement of installation: 5.2 Estimated date of system commissioning and connection to the grid: 6 declaration I hereby request the grid connection of the rooftop PV system to the service provider’s network on a net metering basis in accordance with the information provided in this form. I declare that the rooftop solar PV system to be connected to the grid shall be in compliance with all aspects of the “Regulation for Connecting Renewable Energy Systems to the Electricity Network on a Net Metering Basis 2020” (2020/R-46). Name: Address: Signature: Date: a The net metering regulation defines “unintended islanding” as the generation of electricity from the system established by the customer even when there is no electricity in the network.
