The central inverter is considered the most important core equipment in the Mega-scale PV power plant which suffers from several partial and total failures. This paper introduces a new methodology for Failure Causes Analysis (FCA) of grid-connected inverters based on the Faults Signatures Analysis (FSA).
Some authors discuss inverter failures due to the issues of reactive power control. The PV inverters operate at unity power factor, but as per the new grid requirements, the PV inverters must operate at non unity power factor by absorbing or supplying reactive power to control the grid voltage and frequency.
Since the two-stage PV inverter has an intermediate DC/DC link, there is a certain voltage difference between the PV module and DC capacitor, and the fault coupling degree of undervoltage is lower than that of overvoltage fault. According to the fault location, the fault causes can be divided into two types: DC short circuit and sampling error.
There are multiple fault causes coupling in DC side of photovoltaic inverter. The changes of voltage, current and power are derived by fault mechanism analysis. The differences of failure feature are used to locate the fault cause. 1. Introduction
The failure of a single inverter in a PV plant, actually, may determine a significant loss of power production [ 10 ]. In this context, a reliability analysis (RA) is fundamental for operators in order to identify the components most likely to fail.
Hereby, this paper focuses on the central inverter Failures Causes Analysis (FCA). Hence, this paper presents a new methodology of FCA-B-FSA which studies the inverter Failures Causes Analysis (FCA) based on the Fault Signatures (FSs) as a main objective, then the outcomes link each Fault Signature (FS) to the corresponding Root Cause (RC).
