Technical FAQs 4

Do inverter based generators cause overvoltage?

Inverter-based technology typically have lower fault currents and negative sequence currents to minimise overvoltage on the DC bus capacitors. Some inverter-based generators have a large negative sequence impedance, which can result in temporary over-voltages during unbalanced faults.

How do inverter-based technologies behave during power system faults?

Inverter-based technologies behaviour during power system faults is governed by their control logic and settings. While most inverters inject only positive-sequence current, some also inject negative-sequence current to better control the voltages on the AC side of the inverter.

Does negative sequence current injection reduce phase voltage during zero impedance faults?

The studies in this report assessed the impact of negative sequence current injection based on an inverter model provided by the equipment manufacturer. The results indicated that the negative current injection during zero impedance faults reduced the healthy phase voltage considerably.

How can a control strategy improve a grid-connected inverter?

The proposed control strategy can achieve the separation of positive and negative sequence current components rapidly and accurately, and improve the accuracy of output power of the grid-connected inverter.
