Over-voltage protection of single phase grid connected
Transient over-voltage occurs in case of DC-link current interruption due to failure of IGBT/series diode/gate driver. The non-robust behaviour of IGBT at breakdown voltage makes fast over
1. Input overvoltage protection: When the DC-side input voltage is higher than the maximum allowable DC array access voltage of the grid tie inverter, the inverter is not allowed to start or stop within 0.1s (in operation) and a warning signal is released at the same time.
Automatic recovery of the grid-connected protection: After the grid-tied inverter stops supplying power to the grid because of the fault of the grid, the grid-tie inverter should be able to automatically send power to the grid 5 min after the grid voltage and frequency return to the normal range for 20s.
Overvoltage protection serves to prevent damage to electrical and electronic devices as a result of excessive voltages. Overvoltage protection devices (surge protection devices, or SPD for short) generate equipotential bonding between the connected conductors when excessive voltage is applied.
Output overvoltage / undervoltage, overfrequency / underfrequency protection: On the AC output side of the grid-tied inverter, the grid-tied inverter should be able to accurately determine the overvoltage / undervoltage, overfrequency / underfrequency and other abnormal conditions of the power supply grid (wiring).
This paper aimed to demonstrate the reliability of the Over Current protection (OCP) scheme in protecting microgrids with inverter interfaced RES for low voltage distribution networks.
In addition, the protection level at the inverter is increased if the overvoltage occurs at one of the other strings. When excessive voltage is applied, voltage falls via the cable inductance. If the arrangement is not ideal, the protection level at the inverter is increased (see Fig. 6).
