Tumbelaka, Hanny Hosiana and Muljadi, Eduard and Gao, Wenzhong (2018) The Impact of Transformer Winding Connections of a Grid-Connected PV on Voltage Quality Improvement. [UNSPECIFIED]
Abstract
In this paper, a high-power PV power plant is connected to the weak grid by means of a three-phase power transformer. The selection of transformer winding connection is critical especially when the PV inverter has a reactive power controller. In general, transformer winding connection can be arranged in star-star (with neutrals grounded) or star-delta. The reactive power controller supports voltage regulation of the power system particularly under transient faults. Its control strategy is based on utilizing the grid currents to produce a three-phase unbalanced reactive current with a small gain. The gain is determined by the system impedance. Simulation results exhibit that the control strategy works very well particularly under disturbance conditions when the transformer winding connection is star-star with both neutrals grounded. The power quality in terms of the voltage quality is improved
