This Japanese Industrial Standard specifies the testing method of the grid-connected
power conditioner with a grid-connected function among the power conditioners used
for the stationary small polymer electrolyte fuel cell power systems (hereafter referred
to as "fuel cell system").
This Standard is applied to the grid-connected power conditioners used for the fuel
cell power systems applicable to the following items.
a) Type of fuel cell Polymer electrolyte fuel cell
b) Output Rated transmission output, less than 10 kW
Output mode Grid-connected operation, grid-independent operation or indepen-
dent operation of AC output, 220 V or less
Raw material and fuel Gaseous fuel (city gas, liquefied petroleum gas, etc.),
liquid fuel (kerosene, etc.) or hydrogen
Operating pressure Maximum allowable working pressure of the portion
through which fuel gas passes, less than 0.1 MPa
System configuration Stationary dedicated power generation system or cogen-
eration system stored in a package
NOTE : Those power conditioners that
device shall be tested without
are combined with an electrical storage
the storage device.
