6 FAQs about [Microgrid inverter current limiting]

Can fault induced voltage sags lead to overcurrents in grid forming inverters?

Fault induced voltage sags will lead to overcurrents in grid forming inverters. Current limiting strategies are classified into voltage and current-based strategies. Transient current, current contribution and stability will depend on the strategy. Transient enhancing strategies are used to ensure the stability during faults.

Can grid forming inverters handle low voltage ride through events?

However, the limited current capability of power electronics makes a difference when facing fault induced voltage sags. This work provides a comprehensive review of strategies to handle low voltage ride through events in grid forming inverters.

Does a PV inverter enhance dynamic voltage stability of a microgrid?

Afrin, N., Yang, F. & Lu, J. Voltage support strategy for PV inverter to enhance dynamic voltage stability of islanded microgrid. Int. J. Electr. Power Energy Syst. 121, 106059 (2020).

What are the goals of grid-connected PV inverters?

Under grid voltage sags, over current protection and exploiting the maximum capacity of the inverter are the two main goals of grid-connected PV inverters. To facilitate low-voltage ride-through (LVRT), it is imperative to ensure that inverter currents are sinusoidal and remain within permissible limits throughout the inverter operation.

How do distributed generators contribute to microgrid fault currents?

In the event of a fault, distributed generators (DGs) contribute differently to microgrid fault currents depending on the DG type, which can be synchronous-based or inverter-interfaced. For inverter-interfaced DGs (IIDGs), an inverter serves as an interface medium between the RESs and micro-grid.

Does a two-phase and three-phase dip in grid voltage limit inverter current?

The results under two-phase and three-phase dip in the grid voltage shows that the proposed control strategy injects maximum reactive and active power and limits the inverter current by quickly activating the APC control loop during fault-ride-through period.
