Abstract


The main objective of this paper is the proposal of new modulation techniques for three phase transformerless neutral point clamped inverters to eliminate harmonics in photovoltaic systems without requiring any modification on the multilevel inverter or any additional hardware. The modulation techniques are capable of reducing the harmonics in photovoltaic systems by applying PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) and SVPWM (Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation) or converter. A multilevel power conversion concept is based on the combination of Neutral-Point -Clamped (NPC) and floating capacitor converters. In the proposed scheme, the voltage balancing across the floating capacitors is achieved by using a proper selection of redundant switching states, the input source is PV System. The output voltage waveforms in neutral point clamped inverters can be generated at low switching frequency losses with high efficiency and low distortions. This paper presents the switching pattern to generate symmetrical gating signal to control NPCVSI (Neutral Point Clamp Voltage Source Inverter) using matlab/simulink.

Continuous Overvoltage Characteristics of Surge Protected Power Strips

Volume 5 Issue 4 September - November 2017 Research Paper Continuous Overvoltage Characteristics of Surge Protected Power Strips Cengiz Polat* Assistant Professor, Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Istanbul University, Istanbul, Turkey. Uzunoglu, C. P. (2017). Continuous Over Voltage Characteristics of Surge Protected Power Strips.  i-manager’s Journal on Circuits and Systems,  5(4), 1-7.  https://doi.org/10.26634/jcir.5.4.13938 Abstract Increasing applications of constantly developing electronic devices require delicate voltage and current protection. Although the electrical network is monitored continuously, undesired over currents and over voltages may occur on the distribution system due to failures. Most of the electronic switch gear is connected via surge protected power strips in indoor applications, where current protection is vital. Surge protected power strips are usually manufactured based on Metal Oxide Varistors (MOVs) ...
