Abstract

This work proposes a set of analysis to connecting a distributed generation system to a distribution network using a three-phase power converter (DC-AC) as well as, the power generation produced by the DG (Distributed Generation) system must follow the national and international power quality standards. For producing energy with satisfactory power quality indexes, two situations will be considered: when the power converter operates connected to the grid, the power/current is used as control variable. However, if the power converter is operating in stand-alone mode (contingency or islanding mode) the control variable must be changed to voltage and the terminal voltage of the power converter must be controlled. Finally, the main concerning of the present study is to obtain results to the electrical energy companies and self-producers for connecting DG system to the grid as well as, the essential procedures that must be adopted by them when the distribution system is operating in contingency or islanding mode.
