Under fault conditions, virtual synchronous generators (VSGs) are prone to lose transient stability, similar generators. However, the existing studies on VSG stability not comprehensive. The characteristics of VSGs highly affected by control parameters, but models in overly simplified. In addition, critical clearing angle (CCA) and time (CCT) two indices used measure a system, there few that consider both CCA CCT. this article, we analyze CCT quantitatively describe boundary under different...
The stability of the grid-connected inverter (GCI) system in weak grids is deteriorated due to asymmetric positive-feedback loops (APFLs) introduced by phase-locked loop (PLL) structure.

A soft open point (SOP) can improve the flexibility of power control and thus further enhance reliability economy distribution networks. However, existing SOP regulation strategies have mainly focused on feeder imbalance line loss optimization in medium-voltage networks, SOPs transformers are often ignored, which has poor applicability low-voltage network (LDN).

The reliable extinguishment of a single phase-to-ground arc is the key issue for safe and operation in distribution network. However, since existing suppression methods are normally affected by line parameters, residual current (RC) at grounding point still exists, then hard to be extinguished reliably. Thus, an adaptive active voltage-type (AAVAS) strategy that can reliably inhibit RC proposed this article. First, mechanism traditional extinguishing method parameters proved, variation rules...

The various hybrid advanced traction power supply systems (HATPSS) received significant attention due to their high equipment utilization and low reconstruction cost. They mainly consist of transformer a "two-phase input port single-phase output port" (2AC-AC) converter. However, as multi-port device with complex fault characteristics, the 2AC-AC converter may cause negative sequence current, insufficient supply, even system instability when any fails. Additionally, if traditional redundant...
Abstract The automatic reclosing strategy is an effective measure to improve the reliability of a distribution network. It can quickly clear instantaneous faults in grid. traditional transformer has proven be reliable and robust during process. However, influence process on operational characteristics solid-state transformers (SST) still unclear. action may generate huge inrush current, resulting shutdown even damage SST. To address this problem, paper proposes current suppression strategy....
When a serious grid fault occurs, virtual synchronous generator (VSG) tends to lose transient power angle stability (TPAS) and cause the current exceed limit. Most existing research usually neglects inherent relationship between instability (TPAI) over-current (FOC), which leads two problems being solved separately rather than simultaneously. In this paper, characteristics of VSG are first studied, causes influencing factors TPAI FOC explored. Then, TPAS analysis is carried out based on...
