6 Frequently Asked Questions about “Photovoltaic inverter impedance”

What is a passive equivalent impedance network of PV inverter?

Based on impedance model of two-stage PV inverter in frequency domain, the passive equivalent impedance network of PV inverter connected to power grid is built.

How to measure output impedance of inverters?

The required impedance curves can deter-mined by measurement, analytically or by simula-tion . This paper concentrates on measuring the output impedance of inverters by means of a new measuring technique called differential impedance spectroscopy.

How can a photovoltaic inverter influence background harmonic characteristics?

Taking the typical grid symmetrical harmonic −5th, +7th, −11th and + 13th order harmonic as an example, the impedance network and the definition of harmonic amplification coefficient can be used to analyze the influence of photovoltaic inverter on the corresponding background harmonic characteristics.

Can PV inverters withstand a weak grid?

The coupling of PV inverters connected to the grid through phase-locked loops (PLL) and voltage-current controllers is enhanced in the case of a weak grid. This in turn, brings a series of wide-frequency domain multi-timescale stability problems to the operation of large-scale power plants .

Why does PV inverter output voltage contain high order harmonics?

According to the previous analysis, the increase of the PV inverter output power may cause PV output voltage to contain high order harmonics under the weak grid, which are mainly distributed near the resonance peak of output filter LCL of PV inverter.

Why does a PV inverter have a series parallel resonance?

When the PV inverter is connected to the grid, series–parallel resonance may occur due to the dynamic interaction between multiple inverters operating in parallel and between the PV inverter and the grid impedance. Consequently, this leads to changes in the output voltage harmonic characteristics of the PV plant.
