Three Certifications. One Connected Compliance Framework

Together, UL 1741 SB, IEEE 1547 and California CSIP V2.1 address three essential aspects of North American deployment: advanced inverter performance, grid interconnection and utility communications.

View Our Certification System

UL 1741 SB

Advanced Inverter Testing

Provides the certification test framework for advanced inverter functions, including voltage and frequency ride-through, Volt-VAR control and Volt-Watt response.

IEEE 1547

DER Interconnection Requirements

Defines how distributed energy resources interconnect with and respond to electric power systems under changing grid conditions.

California CSIP V2.1

Smart Inverter Communications

Defines smart inverter communication requirements used under California Rule 21, supporting standardized data exchange with aggregators and utilities.

Turn Grid Compliance into Project Confidence

These certifications give developers and integrators clearer technical evidence for equipment selection, system design and interconnection preparation.

Discuss Your Project Requirements

Clearer Interconnection Preparation

Verified grid-support functions provide documented technical evidence for project design and utility discussions, helping reduce uncertainty during early interconnection planning.

01

Lower Compliance Risk

A unified compliance framework helps project teams identify applicable requirements earlier, reducing the risk of avoidable changes during system design, utility review and commissioning.

02

Prepared for Utility Communications

California CSIP V2.1-compliant communications help microgrid solutions address California Rule 21 requirements and coordinate with aggregators and utility platforms.

03

Certified MGC Power Conversion for Microgrid Solutions

MGC is a grid-forming inverter and bidirectional power conversion system designed for harsh environments, unstable grids and complex load conditions.

FAQs

Can the MGC be paired with any battery or BMS?

Not automatically. The battery’s DC voltage range, current limits, charging and discharging requirements, BMS protocol and protection logic must be compatible with the selected MGC configuration. Compatibility should be reviewed before equipment procurement and commissioning.

Does California CSIP V2.1 use the same communication configuration for every California utility?

California CSIP V2.1 defines a common IEEE 2030.5 implementation profile, but individual utilities may require different grid profiles, control functions, communication parameters and commissioning procedures. The applicable utility requirements should be confirmed for each project.

What information is needed for project technical review?

Prepare the project location and utility, single-line diagram, interconnection voltage, required power, battery DC range, BMS protocol, operating modes and major connected assets. Information about solar, diesel generators, critical loads and the required utility grid profile will support a more accurate configuration review.
