A technique to manage harmonic pollution at the point of common coupling (PCC) has been presented using a control chart. The recursive least-squares technique has been used to estimate the parameters of the Thevenin equivalent load model. With the estimated data from the measured voltage and current waveform at the PCC during certain period violating upper control limit, the individual contributions to the distortion of voltage waveform at an interested harmonic frequency have been calculated and shown by simple graph.

본 논문에서는 3상 태양광 인버터의 단독 운전 검출 방법을 제안한다. 국내외 규정에서 10MW 미만의 태양광 인버터는 제한된 시간 내에 단독 운전을 검출하여 계통에 에너지 공급을 중단할 것을 요구한다. 제안된 단독 운전 검출 방법은 역상분 전압 주입 후 접속점(PCC, Point of Common Coupling)에서 관측되는 역상분 임피던스의 크기 변화에 근거한다. 제안된 검출 방법의 원리와 구현 기법을 제시하고, IEEE Std. 929-2000을 기준으로 유효성을 검증한다. 제안된 방법은 국내외 규정에서 요구하는 검출 시간 이내에 단독 운전을 검출할 수 있고, 단독 운전을 계통 지락 사고와 구별할 수 있으므로 계통 연계시 요구되는 그리드 코드(Grid code)에 대한 대응도 가능하다.

Distributed generation (DG) plays an important role in the power system nowadays. Over-current relay, widely used in the DG protection, causes a wide outage section and long time delay. This paper proposes a DG protection technique to minimize the outage section. The proposed method uses three directional over-current relays with time delay, which are connected to the point of common coupling. The method can minimize the outage section.

본 논문은 계통 전압 보조를 위한 분산전원용 인버터의 Volt/VAR 및 Volt/Watt 제어 방법을 소개한다. 태양광 발전(Photovoltaics, PV), 소수력 발전과 같은 분산전원이 증가함에 따라 양방향 전력 흐름이 일반화 되며, 양방향 전력 흐름으로 인한 PCC (Point of common coupling) 전압 변동이 발생하여 계통에 악영향을 줄 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 전압 변동을 줄여 계통을 보조할 수 있는 분산전원용 인버터의 Volt/VAR 및 Volt/Watt 제어를 소개하며, 관련 규정 및 제어 조건을 명시하고 시뮬레이션을 통해 검증한다.

PCC(Point of Common Coupling) is measured by waveform in power system. Analyzing their frequency, it is possible to get various indices such as THD(Total Harmonic Distortion), TDD(Total Demand Distortion), and VF(Voltage Flicker), and then the harmonic can be evaluated from them. In this paper, the harmonic effect on the power supply which is generated by the vehicle is presented by comparing harmonics with the substation and the vehicle.

This paper presents a grid connected photo-voltaic system using a quasi-Z-source inverter (QZSI) for power stage reduction. The power stage can be reduced because of an additional shoot-through stage which is a characteristic of QZSI. Therefore, by utilizing a QZSI the system's efficiency can be increased. In this paper, for applying a QZSI to a PV system, control methods such as maximum power point tracking (MPPT), point of common coupling (PCC) current control and PWM are studied and verified through simulation and experiment. In order to explain the above controllers, the characteristics of a QZSI are first analyzed. Then the MPPT control technique with a modified P&O method, the PCC current control for the regulation of the dc-link capacitor voltage and the PWM methods for the proposed system are explained. The feasibility of the proposed algorithm is verified through simulation and experiment with a 3kW system.

This paper presents a new technique for enhancing power quality by reducing harmonics in the neutral conductor. Three-Phase Four-Wire (3P4W) system is commonly used where single and three phase loads are connected to Point of Common Coupling (PCC). Due to unbalance loads, the 3P4W distribution system becomes unbalance and current flows in the neutral conductor. If loads are non-linear, then the harmonic content of current will flow in neutral conductor. The neutral current that may flow towards transformer neutral point is compensated by using a series active filter. In order to reduce the harmonic content, the series active filter is connected in series with the neutral conductor by which neutral and phase current harmonics are reduced significantly. In this paper, solar PV based inverter circuit is proposed for compensating neutral current harmonics. The simulation is carried out in MATLAB/SIMULINK and also an experimental setup is developed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Phase Lacked Loop(PLL)은 분산전원을 계통연계시 동기설정을 위해 중요한 장비이다. 이러한 동기설정은 Point of Common Coupling(PCC)에서 계통 전압을 검출하여 크기와 위상을 동일하게 설정하여 전력변환장치에서 전력을 출력한다. 일반적으로 PCC에서 계통전압을 검출하였을 때 고조파, 상간불평형은 전력변환장치 출력 왜곡을 야기 시킨다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 출력왜곡을 감소시키기 위한 3상 PLL을 모델링하여, 그 제어 성능을 시뮬레이션을 통해 확인하였다.

This paper is intended to solve the technical problem that fails in large-capacity induction motor starting due to serious voltage drop during starting period. One induction motor that is established already can reach in steady-state using reactor starting method but the voltage magnitude of PCC (point of common coupling) has dropped down a little. When the same capacity induction motor is installed additionally in the PCC, where the existing induction motor is operating, voltage drop becomes more serious by starting of additional induction motor. As a result, the additional induction motor fails in starting. Therefore, voltage compensation method is proposed so that all of two induction motors can be started completely. First, modeling technique is described in order to implement starting characteristics of large induction motor. And then, this paper proposes strategic starting scheme by proper voltage compensation that use no-load transformer tap control (NLTC) and step voltage regulator (SVR) for starting of two large induction motors successfully and improving the feeding network voltage profile during the starting period. The induction motor discussed in this paper is the pumped induction motor of 2500kVA capacity that is operating by KOWACO (Korea Water Resources Corporation). Modeling and simulation is conducted using PSCAD/EMTDC software.
