1.0 Overview

1.1 Introduction : Connection of Solar PV generation system to the customers’ internal system under
the implementation of Net Energy Metering, requires a review of existing
connection scheme and requirements.

The internal generation by the customers in aggregate would impact the

Distribution system behaviour, especially when there is excess of generation from
the customer. Due consideration of the impacts must be taken to mitigate the
problem caused by the internal generation for example voltage rise, safety, power
quality etc.

RE developers, service providers, operators and parties otherwise involved in the

installation and commissioning of PV generation to the grid can utilise these
guidelines for:

a) Reference to issues related to grid connection of PV.

b) Finding out the power quality requirements for PV interconnection with
medium and low voltage distribution networks.
c) Understanding the interconnecting requirements whether for small,
intermediate or large PV systems.
d) Finding out the methods available for interfacing of the PV generator to
the grid system (connection schemes), including the compliance
requirements for energy metering and SCADA.
e) Understanding the practices to ensure the safety of the personnel and
equipment involved in utility-connected PV operations.

1.2 Regulations : Paralleling indirect Solar PV power generation system to the grid shall be subjected
to compliance to the prevailing electricity supply rules & regulations to ensure
adherence to the standard practices, quality of supply and personal & public
safety.

Regulating authority is Suruhanjaya Tenaga Malaysia.

The following document shall be referred in determining the compliance to

operational conditions terms:
a) Electricity Supply Act & Regulations
b) The Malaysian Distribution Code

2
 For customers connected to Distributor licensee system, connecting indirect Solar
PV power generation system internally requires compliance to requirements stated
in this document. Power generated from indirect Solar PV power generation system
is potentially able to disrupt the existing network quality, security & safety.
Without proper consideration, connecting indirect Solar PV power generation
system could result in:
a) Voltage fluctuation
b) Voltage rise
c) Voltage unbalance
d) Overloading of existing grid connecting feeder/cable
e) Power Quality issues
f) Islanding
g) Coordination with other on-site generations such as backup generator, co-
gen and energy storage system

1.3 Boundary of Boundary and responsibility limits of Distribution Licensee & NEM consumer must
ownership and be clearly demarcated, agreed and documented.
responsibilities
Distribution Licensee responsibility is up to the metering point which is as the
normal distributor customer boundary.

1.4 Approvals & The consumer shall acquire the appropriate approval from relevant authorities and
license to build employ competent personnel to design the installation which include:
& operate  Permit by local authority
 Permit by respective regulatory bodies
 Competent installer under regulation
 Competent operator
 Repair & maintenance

2. Scop

2.1 Scope The main objective of this guideline is to provide guidance on the technical
requirements for customers connected to the Distribution system who plan to
install indirect Solar PV generation.

This guideline outlines technical requirements to ensure that connection of the

indirect Solar PV power generation system would be standardised in terms of
scheme, devices, operation & limits. The ultimate objective is to harmonise
indirect Solar PV power generation system with the existing supply network,
neighbouring customer and other Distributed Generators (DG) within the same
distribution network. Connection of indirect Solar PV power generation system
should not cause breach of power quality, reliability and security of the network
and safety of the operators and public.

This guide covers requirements for connection of indirect Solar PV power

generation system to the customer internal system. Power generation include:

a) Indirect connection solar photovoltaic

b) Battery Energy Storage System (BESS)

Limit of capacity for the indirect Solar PV power generation system under this
guideline is up to 60% of fuse rating (for direct meter) or 60% of current
transformer rating for LV consumers and 75% of maximum demand for MV
customers.

2.2 Commercial
Commercial matters are not part of this guideline.
matters

2.3 Application
Customers that intend to install indirect Solar PV power generation system are
process
required to register with the Distribution licensee. Registration to Distribution
licensee is a statutory requirement as the consumer has altered the system
registered during initial application.

The application process and procedures are described in the “Guidelines For

6.0 General Requirements

6.1 Introduction Connection of indirect Solar PV power generation system for NEM consumer shall
be done internally which shall result in no requirement for upgrading of the existing
utility supply infrastructure such as cable, fuse, switchgear, transformer and
protection scheme.

6.2 Connection
As a result of installation of indirect Solar PV power generation system, the quality
Requirement
of power at the point of connection shall not be made worse than the existing
quality of supply. Quality of supply is measured as compliance to the standards on
voltage, flicker, frequency, harmonics and power factor. To ensure that the
addition of indirect Solar PV power generation system does not adversely impact
the quality of supply, the following requirements shall be imposed and adhered
by the NEM consumer.

Deviation from these standards represents out-of-bounds condition and may

require the PV system to sense the deviation and properly disconnect from
Distribution Licensee system.

Power quality parameters (harmonics and voltage) must be measured at the utility
interface/point of common coupling unless stated otherwise. At PCC, the power
quality requirements must comply with Malaysian Distribution Code and this
Technical Guidebook.
6.3 Selection of Although the connection of indirect Solar PV power generation system is within the
connection consumer’s premise, the following guides shall be satisfied to ensure that the
point
connection does not interfere with the existing power supplied by the Distribution
Licensee. The following items are to be considered during design.

a) Customer load during peak and trough

b) Anti-islanding
c) Protection system
d) Step-up transformer (if applicable)
e) Interlocking
f) Back-up power supply (if applicable)
g) Energy storage system (if applicable)
h) Sensitive load

During periods of low consumption (trough) and high generation from indirect Solar
PV power generation system, consumer may experience reverse power flow. The
NEM consumer is to ascertain that the internal network is capable of utilising all the
generated energy and its protection system is able to cater for bi-directional power
flow.
6.4 Connected As the connection is done internally, NEM consumer shall appoint a qualified
Voltage consultant to design the interconnection between indirect Solar PV power
generation system and his existing plant.

The interconnection shall comply with the standards as described in this guideline
and other regulations issued by the Suruhanjaya Tenaga.

1
6.5 Installed Installed capacity of the system to be connected must be declared correctly during
capacity application. Except for NEM, other indirect Solar PV power generation system
connection shall not result in export of power to the distribution system. Restriction
of export is to ensure that the system voltage does not fluctuate so much during
high load, low generation and low load, high generation. The installed capacity is
declared in term of summation of MWp.

The installed capacity of the indirect Solar PV power generation system shall be
capped as below:
a. Domestic consumers : up to 10kWac ( 4kWac for single phase and 10kWac
for 3 phase systems)
b. Commercial, industrial and agricultural consumers :
i. For medium voltage consumers, the maximum capacity limit is 75% of
maximum demand of the Consumer’s current installation:
 based on the past 1 year average of the recorded maximum demand of
the consumer’s installation; or
 the declared maximum demand for consumers with less than 1 year.
ii. For low voltage consumers, the maximum capacity limit is 60% of fuse
rating (for direct meter) or 60% of current transformer (CT) rating.

The peak or maximum demand is to be supported by actual 24-hour, 4-day load

profile consisting of Friday to Monday. The load profile with 30-minute reading
interval. The capacity described above is total capacity for each site.

6.6 Export limiting The export of excess energy from NEM consumer during its low demand and peak
power generation could cause disruption to Distribution Licensee’s network.
Therefore, the amount of export is to be determined by the Distribution Licensee
during the application process. For the capacity below 72kW, where there will be
no analysis by the DL, the consumer shall ensure that the exported power shall be
less than the existing capacity of the DL and consumer’s equipment.
Appropriate functionality within the inverter or use of external device to be
provided to mitigate such a condition.

Except for NEM consumer, no export is allowed. Appropriate functionality within

the inverter, use of external device or energy storage must be provided. Feature
and location of the function or device shall be specified in the application form &
relevant drawings.

6.7 Boundary of Boundary and operational limits of Distribution Licensee & NEM consumer must be
ownership & clearly demarcated, agreed and documented. The Interconnection Operation
operation Manual (IOM) shall be prepared and endorsed by both parties prior to the operation
of the indirect Solar PV power generation system. Distribution Licensee’s
responsibility is up to the metering point which is as the ordinary Distribution
Licensee’s consumer boundary.

6.8 Equipment Major components of the indirect Solar PV power generation system shall comply
specifications to the following standard :

a. MS 1837
b. IEC 61727
c. IEEE 1547

1
6.9 Normal Voltage : The PV system injects current into utility and does not regulate voltage.
Operating Range
LV indirect Solar PV power generation system shall be capable of operating within
the voltage range in Table 6.1.

Table 6.1: Normal operating condition at PCC (LV)

Nominal Voltage (V) Steady state voltage limits

400 +10% and -6%

230 +10% and -6%

MV indirect Solar PV power generation system shall be capable of operating within

the limits as in Table 6.2 below;

Table 6.2: Normal operating condition at PCC (MV)

Nominal Voltage (kV) Steady state voltage limits

6.6 ±5%
11 ±5%
22 ±5%
33 ±5%

Table 6.1 and Table 6.2 are adopted from the “Malaysian Distribution Code”

6.10 Voltage
: Power generation from indirect Solar PV power generation system constantly varies
fluctuation
due to the changing solar irradiation throughout the day. The varying power
generation injected into the Distribution Licensee’s network is bound to create
voltage fluctuations at the interconnection point and other buses within the grid.

The maximum voltage fluctuation range allowed for LV and MV due to varying
solar radiation is 6%. Beyond this, there is a danger of utility and consumer
equipment getting heated up.

An appropriate voltage control is to be undertaken to mitigate the voltage

fluctuation when necessary.

6.11 Harmonic The harmonic of a wave is a component frequency of a wave that is an
integer multiple of the fundamental frequency. In the presence of non-linear loads
such as computer power supplies and other appliances, alternating current (AC)
can be distorted by introduction of various harmonic frequencies. Harmonics
can be measured by percentage of the fundamental frequency or by
calculating total harmonic distortion (THD). When present at high levels; these
harmonics are detrimental to the electrical system and its loads.

The PV system output should have low current-distortion levels to ensure that no
adverse effects are caused to other equipment connected to the utility system.

Total harmonic current distortion shall be less than 5 % at rated inverter output at
cable connected to PCC. Each individual harmonic shall be limited to the
percentages listed in Table 6.3.

Even harmonics in these ranges shall be less than 25 % of the lower odd harmonic
limits listed.

Table 6.3 – Current distortion limits (IEC 61727-2003 Table 1)

Odd harmonics Distortion limit (%)
3–9 < 4.0
11 – 15 < 2.0
17 – 21 < 1.5
23 – 33 < 0.6

Even harmonics Distortion limit (%)

2–8 < 1.0
10 – 32 < 0.5

Note:
 The harmonic current injection should be exclusive of any harmonic currents due
to harmonic voltage distortion present in the utility grid without the PV
system connected.
 Type tested inverters meeting the above requirements should be deemed to
comply without further testing.

1
6.12 Inverter Power The power factor is defined as the ratio between the applied active power and the
Factor apparent power.

PV systems shall have a leading or lagging power factor greater than 0.9 and 0.85
respectively when the output is greater than 20 % of the rated inverter output
power. The smart inverters used shall automatically make necessary adjustments
to ensure that the power factor does not cause voltage rise beyond the permissible
limit.

Fig. 6.1: Reactive power requirement at connection point

6.13 Reactive Power
Compensation Consumer should be aware that if the installed indirect Solar PV power generation
system is set to operate at unity power factor, reactive power for their load will be
totally imported from Distribution Licensee and real power will be mixed of own
generation and import from Distribution Licensee.
This will result in low power factor reading at Distribution Licensee tariff meter as
the ratio of reactive power to active power is higher with own generation.
Therefore, customer is advised to consult their service provider to provide internal
compensation to avoid from being penalised.

6.14 DC Injection The PV system shall not inject DC current greater than 1 % of the rated
inverter output current into the utility interface under any operating condition.

6.15 Flicker Flicker is due to rapidly changing loads that cause fluctuate in the
customer’s voltage. Even a small change in voltage can cause noticeable.
Flicker is an irritation issue.
The operation of the PV system should not cause voltage flicker in excess of
values stated in Table 6.4;

Table 6.4– Reference: TNB LV Planning Guidelines

Distribution system Absolute short term Absolute long term
voltage level which flicker severity flicker severity
the fluctuating load is
connected (Pst) (Plt)
LV Systems 1.0 0.8
11kV – 33kV 0.9 0.7
Above 33kV 0.8 0.6

6.16 Voltage
Voltage unbalance is defined as the ratio of the negative sequence voltage
unbalance
component to the positive sequence voltage component.

Negative Phase Sequence Voltage (%): 2% for 1-minute duration when multiple
single-phase PV units are installed and it should be distributed evenly among the
three phases of the power system.

Infrequent short duration peaks with a maximum value of 2% are permitted for
Voltage Unbalance.

The unbalance voltage shall not exceed 1% for 5 occasions within any 30-minute
time period at the terminals of a user’s installation.

6.17 Short circuit By regulation, Distribution Licensee is required to ensure that short circuit level of
level the network is within the equipment ratings. The regulation specifies that network
maximum sub-transient 3-phase symmetrical short circuit shall be within 90% of
the equipment designed short-time make & break capacity. Table 6.5 highlights
the typical equipment ratings in Distribution Licensee’s distribution network.

7.0 Penetration Limit

7.1 Introduction NEM consumers are allowed to export any excess energy to TNB, provided that
the exported power are within the capacity of the existing equipment (TNB
and consumer) and the voltage levels are within the limit.

Generation power limiter is necessary to ensure that during periods of low load
and high solar generation, the local voltage level would not rise beyond the limit
and the exported power are still within the capacity of the existing equipment
(TNB and consumer)

7.2 Individual a) Net Energy Metering (NEM)

penetration Applicable for Distribution Licensee registered consumer only. Consumer
should decide on the installed capacity with consideration of their own daytime
peak demand. Maximum installed capacity as shown in Table 7.1.

Table 7.1– Maximum installed capacity allowed for NEM customer

Category Maximum capacity installed
Domestic Single phase 4kWac
Three phase 10kWac
Exported power to TNB shall be
less than the existing capacity of
TNB and consumer’s equipment

Commercial, MV Consumer 75% of consumer’s maximum

Industry and demand
agricultural
LV Consumer 60% of fuse rating for direct meter
or
60% of CT rating

However, periodically, during low household power consumption period and high
solar PV generation, the excess power is to flow into the grid.

b) Self-Consumption
Self-consumption means that the generated power is fully consumed within the
customer premise. No export is allowed, therefore self-consumption consumer
shall install a device that will prevent the export. The export curtailment is to
prevent any voltage rise at the point where the indirect Solar PV power
generation system is connected to the consumer MSB.

Limit for installed capacity is similar to that of NEM which refer to table 7.1
above.

c) BESS
Installed capacity of BESS should not cause any export to Distribution
Licensee’s grid. Appropriate limiting device must be emplaced.

8.0 Protection Guidelines

8.1 Introduction : Protection system for indirect Solar PV power generation system is to be designed
to isolate the faulty from the healthy sections of the system.

DG protection scheme is under NEM consumer responsibility and NEM consumer

is to declare the protection scheme and settings to Distribution Licensee. NEM
consumer shall design a protection system that fits his target degree of system
security. Nonetheless, NEM consumer shall comply to Distribution Licensee’s
protection requirements to ensure that the fault would not spread beyond the plant.

NEM consumer is to perform protection coordination study to determine the

suitable settings to protect the system during fault. Results of such study are to be

NEM consumer on the appropriate settings at the point of common coupling.

For NEM consumer interconnection feeder protection scheme shall inhibit unsafe
synchronization.

8.2 Smart inverter : Connection of power generation to distribution network could cause voltage rise
during low load, high generation condition. Also, sudden loss of generation from
DG\ could cause instability of the network, especially for system with high DG
penetration.

Advanced inverters or known as smart inverters are capable of providing

additional features in addition to the power conversion. Smart inverters are PV
inverters that stay connected and provide additional functions to help actively
support the grid - mainly voltage and frequency. Traditional inverters simply
disconnected when the grid voltage or frequency went out of range. Broadly, smart
inverters provide some additional benefit to the grid beyond simply converting
direct-current (DC) electricity to alternating current (AC) from PV systems. The
smart inverter functions is outlined in the Attachment A.

8.3 Frequency : Distribution Licensee shall maintain the system frequency and the PV system shall
operate in synchronism with Distribution Licensee’s frequency. Distribution
Licensee shall operate with nominal 50 Hz system with ±1% range band.

1
8.4 Synchronisation : Synchronisation is an act of matching, within allowable limits, the required DG
parameters with the Distribution Licensee’s utility supply parameters as in Table
8.1.

Table 8.1– Parameters required for synchronisation

Parameters Required range
a. Frequency difference <0.2 Hz
b. Voltage magnitude difference < 10%
c. Voltage angle difference < 10 deg
d. Interlocking logic are satisfied -

Synchronisation is to be done at the inverter. Re-synchronising is only to proceed

MV 5 minute

8.5 Anti-islanding : Non islanding inverters are unable to supply the load without the presence of the
inverter Distribution Licensee’s system. For personnel safety reasons, PV plant is not
allowed to be energized during outage of Distribution Licensee grid (loss of
mains). The NEM consumer shall disconnect from the Distribution Licensee’s
system for loss of main within 2 second.

Inverters used by NEM consumer shall provide the following anti-islanding detection
techniques:
a) Under Voltage
b) Over Voltage

d) Over Frequency
e) 1 additional anti-islanding technique

NEM consumer is to prove the anti-islanding capability of the plant during

commissioning tests.

8.6 Inverter Fault : PV system with inverter shall use abnormal voltage or frequency sensing for fault
Detection detection.

8.7 Inverter fault : The fault current contribution by the inverter will be limited usually by inverter control.
current Based on IEEE 1547, the typical range of short circuit current is between 100%
contribution and 200% of the rated inverter current. NEM consumer shall ensure that inverters
used comply to the IEEE1547 requirement.

1
8.8 Protection : The basic requirements for the design of the protection schemes shall be as follows:

equipment

8.10 Voltage : The inverter should sense abnormal voltage and respond according to the
disturbance conditions in Table 8.3. Consideration shall be given to monitoring voltage in this
clause in order to avoid problems due to voltage drop in various transformer, wiring
or feeder circuit. When the inverter sense the voltage lies outside its operating
limits, the recommended action shall be as in Table below.

Table 8.3– Voltage Disturbance

Voltage (at PCC) Maximum trip time (s)
V<50% 0.10
50%≤V<90% 2.00
90%≤V≤110% Continuous operation
110%<V<135% 2.00

Inverters are expected to continuously operate during distribution network

voltage fluctuation ±10% of its nominal.

During the time of voltage disturbances which could be the result of transmission
network switching and distribution switching on nearby feeder, the voltage would
be affected. Therefore, inverters must be able to ride thru the voltage disturbance
bands of 50% to 90% and 110% to 135%. This is to help stabilise the Distribution
Licensee’s system.

Loss-of-mains is indicated by voltage drop less than 50%.

12. Testing &

12.1 Introduction : There are 2 types of testing required:

a) Inverter compliance tests
b) Interconnection compliance tests

Inverter compliance test

NEM consumer is responsible to ensure that the inverter unit(s) are in
compliance to the requirements of this guideline.
Certified results of tests must be submitted for verification.

Interconnection compliance tests

Prior to commissioning, the interconnection must be tested to ensure that the
performance is up to the required standard, installations are according to the
approved scheme, settings are done as approved, etc.
Connection of indirect Solar PV power generation system plant should not
have detrimental impact to the operation of Distribution Licensee’s grid.

Tests to prove the following items shall be carried out in the commissioning
process:
a) Anti-islanding on loss of mains,
b) Interlocking scheme (if any)
c) Equipment functional tests
d) Power Quality measurement

12.2 Commissioning
Commissioning tests of the installation shall be carried out by the competent
tests
person appointed by NEM consumer.

All tests must be carried out by qualified testers.

Test equipment must have valid calibration certificate.

12.3 Commissioning For connections that are situated on a long feeder, special attention to the
of LV connection voltage level during peak and low load is to be made. Such a condition could
result in excessive voltage rise during low load period.

13. Operation and

13.1 Introduction NEM solar PV installation is owned and maintained by the Consumer.

13.2 Boundary Any failure of supply from TNB grid including the bidirectional meter shall be
rectified and normalized by TNB.

Any failure of the consumer’s electrical installation (after TNB meter) and solar
PV system shall be rectified and normalized by the Consumer.

In the event of TNB supply failure, the Consumer has to ensure that there shall
not be any reverse power/back feed from any internal source of generation
(example solar PV, battery, generator) to TNB grid.

The Consumer is solely responsible for any accident/incident to human beings

and equipment that may occur due to reverse power/back feed from any
internal source of generation when the TNB grid supply is off.

TNB reserves the right to disconnect TNB supply to Consumer at any time in
the event of default as specified in the NEM contract, damage to its grid, meter,
etc, or to prevent accident or damage.

ATTACHMENT A : Smart Inverter Functions

• Continued growth of PV generation puts more challenges on grid infrastructure designed for distribution
from centralized energy sources. Advanced or smart inverter functions can help address the grid
stability problems posed by high levels of variable distributed generation

• Smart inverters are PV inverters that stay connected and provide additional functions to help actively
support the grid - mainly voltage and frequency. Smart Inverters able to receive commands from grid
operators and report information. Traditional inverters simply disconnected when the grid voltage or
frequency went out of range.

• Broadly, smart inverters provide some additional benefit to the grid beyond simply converting direct-
current (DC) electricity to alternating current (AC) from PV systems. They typically support overall grid
reliability by offering the following functions:

No. Functions Description Setting Reference

1 Anti-islanding Automatically disconnect during grid failure within LV : • Distribution Code:

Protection certain duration. The duration is adjustable. • Disconnect 2sec 7.8.3.5 - Protection
• Reconnect 2min and Control
Anti-islanding protection is to ensure inverter Requirements
MV:
doesn't back-feed a disabled grid • Disconnect 2sec
• Reconnect 5min
2 Voltage and Inverter must meet the mandatory and permissive LVRT/HVRT: • Distribution Code:
Frequency operation requirements as well as the must trip Refer graph 6.5.5.1 - Low
Ride-through limits when the AC grid voltage and frequency high (Distribution Code) Voltage Ride
Capability or low limits are exceeded. Through & 6.5.5.2 -
LFRT/HFRT: Frequency
Inverters support the grid during brief voltage or uninterrupted range disturbance
frequency excursions. This function will help the 47Hz to 50.5Hz
grid to self-heal from a disturbance.

During periods of (sometimes extreme) deviations

in grid voltage and/or frequency, smart inverters are
designed to remain connected to the grid and adjust
their output to act as a counterbalance to frequency
or voltage changes

3 Ramp Rate The rate of power increase when first ramping (start Does not exceed 15% • Grid Code:
Control ramp) and subsequent increases in offsetting or of rated capacity per CC6.4.12
selling (normal ramp) minute.

To help smooth transitions from one output level to Applicable for capacity
the next. Supports grid by ramping up slowly giving of 5MW and above
the grid time to adjust to the PV energy coming
back online.

• Grid voltage nominal, purely active power -6% +10% factor
• Grid voltage high, add ‘inductive’ reactive power
• Grid voltage low, add ‘capacitive’ reactive power Power Factor range:
Adjusting VARs keeps grid voltage from oscillating; 0.85 lagging to 0.9
acts like a shock absorber leading

The reactive power control can be achieved using 3

main controls:
(a) Dynamic Volt/VAr Mode (voltage control)
(b) Fixed power factor (pf control)
(c) Fixed reactive power (eg: using switched
reactor or capacitor)

5. Active Power Support grid frequency and voltage by changing Frequency range: • Distribution Code:
