As an inverter-interfaced distributed generation (IIDG), PV system can cause additional impacts when compared to other traditional DGs. For example, due to the pulse width modulation (PWM) switching process, PV inverters may damage the grid power quality by injecting harmonic content and direct current (Chen et al. 2018; Hu et al. 2015).
Many articles that analyze the PV impact under diferent fault scenarios adopt a fault current value to be injected by each PV system during the fault simulations. Although it is well established that the fault current of grid-connected PV inverters is limited, there are many articles adopting diferent limiting values.
The different values reported in the literature increase the uncertainty about the real fault contribution from PV inverters. Under such a scenario, a wide survey and a critical review are presented in this article in order to show such divergence and to present a more intuitive insight into fault currents from PV inverters.
The PV inverter is modelled as a constant power source, however, for fault analysis, the authors assumed the limiting current to be twice the rated current, for the worst-case scenario. The inverter current and voltage are considered in phase for unit power factor operation.
This can however, vary between 1.2 -2.5 times the inverter rated current depending on different types and manufacturers of inverters for PV systems. The fault current contribution time generally varies from 4 cycles to 10 cycles .
In these tests, faults are also caused at the PCC of the PV inverter, leading the voltage to reach 0.05 pu. The first ½ cycles fault current ranges from 1 to 1.2 times the pre-fault current (1 pu). By comparing Tables 4 and 6, it can be seen that the PV inverter model investigated in Gonzalez et al. (2018) is in agreement with the generic group.
