The practice of testing power system equipment like converters usually involves simulation, laboratory and field testing in that sequence. Such an approach lacks smooth transition and wide coverage of new services which are being introduced by the smart grid concept. A systematic approach to sequentially test various functionalities may lead to reduced costs and speedup the process from concept to implementation. Testing chain is such an approach where specific capabilities of pure simulation, hardware-in-the-loop, laboratory and field testing are leveraged sequentially to cover wide aspects of the system under investigation. In this study, a test case is exemplary realized aiming to demonstrate the potential of a multi-site testing chain with varied testbeds for generating systematic improvements on the performance of power converter control functions.

Power generation via Distributed Generation (DG) plants coupled with inverters can participate in Frequency and Voltage stabilization of the microgrid which is important to grid operators. This paper explores the realization of improved regulation of frequency and voltages in a low voltage microgrid using droopcontrolled power converters. The test bed consists of a Power Hardware in the Loop (PHIL) setup, which includes a gridforming battery inverter, local loads, and DG plants. In the PHIL setup, the grid-forming battery inverter was responsible for setting the network voltage, which served the loads initially before the distributed energy resources were energized. Additional loads were then switched on triggering a frequency drop in the network. Changes in the load requirement and performance of the DGs were examined through the PHIL setup with the energy storage system further supporting as require. The results showed notable improvement in the overall system frequency and voltage regulation.
