Source Component and Power Amplifier Current Draw II. AC Polarity III. Over-voltage and Under-voltage Conditions Index Introduction The source that supplies nearly all of our electronic components is alternating current (AC) power. For most, it is enough that they can rely on a service tap from their power utility to supply the voltage and current our audio-video (A/V) components require. In fact, in many parts of the world, the supplied voltage is quite stable, and if the area is free of catastrophic lightning strikes, there are seemingly no AC power problems at all. Obviously, there are areas where AC voltage can both sag and surge to levels well out of the optimum range, and others where electrical storms can potentially damage sensitive electrical equipment. There are many protection devices and AC power technologies that can ad- dress those dire circumstances, but too many fail to realize that there is no place on Earth that is supplied adequate AC power for today’s sensitive, high-resolution electronic components.

DESIGN OF A CONDITIONER FOR SMOOTHING WIND TURBINE OUTPUT POWER by MURALI BOTTU A THESIS Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the MISSOURI UNIVERSITY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree MASTER OF SCIENCE IN ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING 2011 Approved by Dr. Mariesa L. Crow, Advisor Dr. Badrul H. Chowdhury Dr. Mehdi Ferdowsi 2011 Murali Bottu All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT As a result of wind speed intermittency, wind turbine output power can be highly variable. The large variability in output power can adversely impact local loads that are sensitive to pulsating power. To mitigate large swings in power, the wind turbine output power can be smoothed by using a small energy buffer. A power conditioner is proposed to smooth the wind power output by utilizing the energy of an ultracapacitor. The conditioner is based on a single phase voltage source inverter (VSI) connected between the grid interconnection point and the ultracapacitor.

  • Advanced Active Power Conditioner to Improve Power Quality in a Micro Grid
    IOSR Journal of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (IOSR-JEEE) e-ISSN: 2278-1676,p-ISSN: 2320-3331, Volume 11, Issue 6 Ver. IV (Nov. – Dec. 2016), PP 01-08 www.iosrjournals.org Advanced Active Power Conditioner to Improve Power Quality in a Micro Grid Prof.A.N.Malleswara Rao Professor, Dept Of EEE, RMCE,Hyderabad Abstract: This paper presents a three-phase Active Power Conditioner to improve power quality in micro grids based on renewable energy. A micro grid is a weak electrical grid which can be easily subject to disturbances. The Active Power Conditioner (APC) presented in this paper acts as an interface between renewable energy sources and the AC bus of a micro grid and uses an improved control strategy, which makes possible to inject energy in the micro grid, compensate the current harmonics and correct the power factor. Moreover, the proposed control strategy allows the line current at the point of common coupling (PCC) to be balanced and sinusoidal even when the load is unbalanced. Consequently, the voltage at the PPC becomes balanced. Simulation results show the validity of the innovative control strategy. Keywords: Active Power Conditioner, Micro grids, Renewable Energy, Current control I. Introduction Technological advances in power electronics have created opportunities for the renewable sources to be exploited in different configurations. The power electronic interface allows renewable sources to be connected with the distribution grid or interconnected with other renewable and non-renewable generators, storage systems and loads in a micro grid [1]. A micro grid is different from a main grid system which can be considered as an unlimited power so that load variations do not affect the stability of the system.
