Is that not exactly what a brownout would cause, as GP alluded to? (I don't know the effect of low voltage on A/C so I'm guessing here...)

- amelius 9y agoI don't think a brownout would cause the desired effect (GP said "brownout and fail"). But what you could do is automatically switch off a selected set of A/C units when power output is low. That way you can prevent a brownout (drop in voltage), while still having some cooling. Of course, the A/C units should be designed such that frequent shut-offs are not a problem. Anyway, I'm no expert either but I think the approach should consider the whole system (PV + A/C) rather than view them as different domains.
