Reference / Nameplate schedule
Model option
Apparent power
The schedule's value times the power factor caps the active output
Inputs used: Ambient derate schedule, Nameplate is apparent, Power factor, Ambient nameplate schedule
Method
The schedule is apparent power, like the nameplate. Its value at the ambient temperature, capped at the nameplate, times the power factor is the inverter's active AC limit (1). The operating-point rules of the Inverter operating limits step hold the output to it.
The math
- AC limit

| Symbol | Meaning | Unit |
|---|---|---|

| the inverter's ambient nameplate schedule read at the ambient temperature, linear between its points, no bound without a schedule | VA | |
| the ambient temperature | °C | |
| the power factor. When the inverter nameplate is apparent power (Losses tab), else 1 | — | |
| the inverter's AC nameplate | VA |
