Fault current and overvoltage calculations for inverter-based generation using symmetrical components

Abstract: This paper presents symmetrical component calculations for expected single line-to-ground fault (SLGF) currents and associated over voltages on a typical distribution circuit with solar photovoltaic (PV) inverter-based generation. The analysis is based on representing the PV inverter as a current source. This paper proposes an ideal Norton's equivalent model for the PV inverter. Results show that a ground source in the PV interconnection transformer will reduce the temporary overvoltage (TOV) seen on the feede… Show more

“…4 b [25] with all the switches closed. The equivalent circuit representation for a group of photovoltaic (PV) inverter systems is derived in [26]. The current ( I G ) injected from IBDER to the grid is varied according to the distribution network operating conditions to meet the required apparent power ( S G ).…”

“…In addition, the inverter uses feedback current control schemes for a stable power flow from the energy resource to the grid [7], especially for intermittently changing renewable energy resources. For these reasons, in [8] [9], the authors suggested that an inverter-based DER is considered to be a current source when analyzing its effect on the power grid. However, the authors of [8] [9] neither mentioned nor provided an accurate procedure of how the model of an inverter-based DER should be derived.…”
