The control design of this type of inverter may be challenging as several algorithms are required to run the inverter. This reference design uses the C2000 microcontroller (MCU) family of devices to implement control of a grid connected inverter with output current control.
Along with that, it keeps a track on harmonics and reduces the harmonics as per grid standards (Zmood and Holmes 2003). Inverter switches play a significant part in implementing the control technique. When grid-connected inverters intentionally separate themselves from the PCC, through opening the controlled switch, they operate autonomously.
In this mode, the inverter is connected to the grid at PCC and it transfers the generated power from the DC side to the AC side, i.e., grid and AC loads (Ahmed et al. 2011). The voltage reference is taken as per the grid side requirements for inverter controller.
In the grid-connected inverter, the associated well-known variations can be classified in the unknown changing loads, distribution network uncertainties, and variations on the demanded reactive and active powers of the connected grid.
Do not leave the design powered when unattended. Grid connected inverters (GCI) are commonly used in applications such as photovoltaic inverters to generate a regulated AC current to feed into the grid. The control design of this type of inverter may be challenging as several algorithms are required to run the inverter.
The test system is described shown in Fig. 13.6, the grid-connected inverter system is simulated using Matlab/Simulink. The simulation model mainly includes the main circuit module and the control module of a three-phase two-level inverter. The grid-connected inverter can distribute the active and reactive power according to the control.
