It's been a while, but the names ring a bell.
Either limited local generation, or long distance cables causing
voltage lag will do it.
I'm thinking it's more likely to be long distance cables.
Wind is out there to supplement peak power use, and that works well,

I knew there was no point in explaining this to someone who has no
concept of the difference between phase angle and load angle.
This might be a bit complex for you Phil, but here is a reference for
Wind Generation. Solar is the same:

There is a lot more to a power system than "feed conductors", what ever
you mean by that. I take it you are refering to the the consumer mains.

So voltage drop determines the direction of flow.
For reactive power, yes. Not for real power. That depends on the load
angle between the load and the generator

In an AC power system, real power flow is determined by the load angle
between the generator and the load.
** Contextless gobbledegook.
I knew you wouldn't understand this. It requires some level of
mathematical understanding. AC power systems are a lot more complex than
Ohms law and toasters.

A bit complex is it for you Phil? Couldn't understand the link I sent
you? Good thing toasters are purely resistive loads I guess.
Pity you never understood complex numbers and vectors. You might then
understand about AC power sytems.

John, I did a little more research on the subject.
A friend of mine has a solar installer licence and has access to
inverter manuals.
I looked at manuals of the German SMA
(http://www.sma-australia.com.au/en_AU/products/solar-inverters/sunny-boy.html)
and the Chinese Sunteams (www.kinglongpower.com)
which are quite common here in WA.
They do switch off (disconnect from the grid by relay) as soon as the
maximal Voltage has been reached (260 or 265 Volts). No info on
hysteresis and recovery time though.
You can tweak this voltage in the setup (but need a password with the
SMA), and so make sure that at least your system keeps feeding (don't!).
If this design is common practice, which I think is safe to assume, the
scenario described by Mr. Hart sounds plausible to me I am afraid, given
that there is not enough copper and/or a high number of solar feeders.
