Abstract:
A versatile AC-AC converter that can be utilized as a control device for custom power applications is presented. The converter has the ability to regulate bus voltage through voltage sags and overvoltages, and act as a solid state circuit breaker. Performance characteristics under typical conditions are presented along with experimental verification of converter operation. Technical feasibility, protected efficiency and other practical implementation issues are discussed. Operation of the power converter is illustrated using EMTP simulations.
