Inadvertent export definition

Inadvertent export means the unpermitted, unscheduled, and uncompensated
Inadvertent export means the unpermitted, unscheduled, and uncompensated export of real power generated from a Distributed Generating Facility and exported across the point of common coupling to the EDC’s distribution system. The magnitude of Inadvertent Export shall be less than the Generating Facility’s Nameplate Capacity and the duration shall be less than 30.0 seconds for any single event.
Inadvertent export means the unscheduled export of active power from a small generator facility, exceeding a specified magnitude and for a limited duration, generally due to fluctuations in load-following behavior.

Examples of Inadvertent export in a sentence

  • Inadvertent export can have a detrimental effect on the Area EPS, damaging equipment or causing a power outage.

  • Inadvertent export shall be limited to 10% of the nameplate DER rating or 100 kW, whichever is less, for a maximum of 30 seconds.

  • Inadvertent export is the flow of energy, in excess of a defined amount, through the PCC and back onto the Area EPS.

  • Inadvertent export is a situation where the customer’s load drops unexpectedly, and the on-site generation or battery cannot ramp down quickly enough to adjust to the new load.

  • Inadvertent export is power that is unintentionally exported from a DER when load drops off suddenly, such as when an electric water heater switches off, before the export control system responds to the signal to limit or stop export.

Inadvertent export means the unplanned, uncompensated transfer of electrical energy from a Generating Facility to the Distribution System across the Point of Interconnection. “Interconnection” means the physical connection of a Generating Facility to the Distribution System.
Inadvertent export the unscheduled and uncompensated export of real power generated from a customer’s parallel operation and delivered to the Company. The use of an internal transfer relay, energy management system, or other customer facility hardware or software system(s) intended to prevent the reverse power flow, or net export, from the customer’s energy source across the point of interconnection shall be required. The magnitude of energy export shall be less than the aggregate nameplate rating (kW-gross) of all sources ineligible to export power (Non-Export) multiplied by one hour per month, and the duration of export of power from the customer’s parallel operation shall be less than 30 seconds for any single event.
