“…However, three phase electrical machines performances under various grid faults have been investigated in [8][9][10][11][12][13]. On the other hand, [14][15] discuss the performance of a grid-connected photovoltaic system under various grid faults. Reference [16] has proposed a method that can be developed from two matrices and used to solve the various types of single or simultaneous unsymmetrical faults with hybrid compensation for microgrid (MG) distribution systems.…”

In this paper the control of a single-stage grid-connected photovoltaic power plant (GCPPP) is developed to address the issue of inverter disconnection under various grid faults. There are three main reasons for inverter disconnection which are (i) excessive dclink voltage, (ii) excessive ac currents and (iii) loss of grid-voltage synchronization. The control of the inverter incorporates reactive power support in the case of voltage sags based on grid code requirements to ride-through the faults and support the grid voltages. Accordingly, another requirement of the grid codes is to control the reactive current injection under unbalanced voltage sags so that the voltages in the non-faulty phases do not exceed the specified limitations. All these issues are discussed in this paper for a case study of 1-MVA GCPPP using MATLAB/Simulink. The results illustrate the capability of the developed GCPPP to ridethrough different types of faults occurred on the grid side.Index Terms-Photovoltaic systems, Large-scale systems, Power system faults, Fault-ride-through, Reactive power support.

“…One of the main impacts of a Photovoltaic (PV) system on a distribution feeder is on the system protection, as the PVs will contribute to the fault current during a fault [1,2]. Hence, coordination, defined as the sufficient time margin needed between the trip time of a protective device (PD) and that of the corresponding backup protection, is prone to be affected by the PV penetration [3].…”

“…The impact of distributed generators (DGs) on the coordination between overcurrent relays has been investigated in literature [1][2][3][4][5][6]. Different methods have been proposed in [4,5,6] such as utilizing multi-agent systems, adaptive protection methods, and back tracking algorithms to handle this impact.…”
