RGS SERIES

Regenerative Grid Simulator, 12kVA to 1.296MVA+

The RGS Series is a high-density 2-in-1 grid simulator delivering up to 24kVA in a 4U chassis with scalability up to 1.296MVA+. It emulates global grid conditions for compliance testing (IEEE 1547.1, UL 1741 SB, IEC 61000-3/4, etc.). With the optional AC/DC load, it can simulate inductive, capacitive, or resistive profiles for a complete test solution. The RGS is also ideal for testing bidirectional power applications to manage back-EMF safely, such as motors.

Accurately Emulate the Grid and Test to Grid Compliance Standards

As grid-connected devices evolve, accurate compliance testing to standards like IEEE 1547 and UL 1741 SB is essential. Regenerative grid simulators replicate voltage sags, brownouts, and real-world disturbances. This webinar covers how smart control and advanced hardware improve testing for LVRT, interoperability, harmonics, flicker, immunity, anti-islanding, and more.

Simulate Harmonics AND Interharmonics

The RGS Regenerative Grid Simulator built-in digitizer and scope with 200 µs resolution. Supports LIST, PULSE, STEP, and generates Sine, Square, Triangle, Clipped, Harmonics, and Inter-harmonics.

  • AC, DC configurations
  • Simultaneously test AC and DC, Source or Load on separate phases
  • Full galvanic isolation from facility AC input to output and between output phases/channels also protects the user and the UUT.
Test AC or DC, as a Source or Load - Independently or Simultaneously

Simultaneous AC and DC operation of modes per phase(or channel), and the automatic switching of output modes provides test engineers with a unique capability and the highest degree of flexibility.
