Abstract

Based on the bipolar photovoltaic grid-connected inverter control system, a grid unbalanced fault ride-through control strategy is proposed to support the stable operation of the bipolar photovoltaic grid-connected system. Based on analyzing the operating state of the photovoltaic system when unbalanced voltage sags, a voltage fault ride-through control logic of the bipolar photovoltaic system is proposed to solve the problem of grid-connected current quality during fault. The correctness and usage scenarios of the method are verified by Matlab/Simulink simulation. The results show that for different unbalanced voltage sags, the control method can effectively suppress the grid-connected negative sequence current under the condition of low-voltage sag depth, and keep the grid-connected current within a safe current range.
