6 FAQs about [Photovoltaic inverter voltage flicker test]

What are the test items of a PV inverter?

Especially utility compatibility part includes test items of 1) voltage, current and frequency, 2) normal voltage operating range, 3) flicker, 4) DC injection, 5) normal frequency operating range, 6) harmonics and 7) waveform distortion, 8) power factor of PV inverter.

How to test a PV inverter According to IEC 61727?

To test and analyze each test item of IEC 61727, we full tested with PV inverter of performance function. Tested PV inverter of specifications is as it follows; The full tests of PV inverter will be conducted in the laboratory at KTL according to IEC 61727.

How does insolation affect the flicker severity of a PV system?

The PV system generation changes with insolation rapidly and randomly ,and the change of power-flow increase the flicker severity in grid. The IEC standards 61400-21 provides recommended test method for wind turbines. In this paper, a model including virtual grid and flickermeter is developed.

What is voltage flicker?

Voltage flicker is a condition where there are sudden changes in voltage at frequent intervals. A variety of electric devices in industry may cause this.

Do PV inverters regulate voltage?

Because utility-interconnected PV systems do not normally regulate voltage, they inject current into the utility. Therefore, the voltage operating range for PV inverters is selected as a protection function that responds to abnormal utility conditions, not as a voltage regulation function.

What is the lagging power factor of a PV system?

The PV system shall operate in synchronism with the utility system, and within the frequency trip limits defined in IEC 61727. The PV system shall have a lagging power factor greater than 0,9 when the output is greater than 50 % of the rated inverter output power.
