Integrating PV Systems with Non-Standard Grid Voltages

Installing grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) systems is challenging in regions with nonstandard grid voltages, as PV inverters are designed for standard levels. To overcome this limitation, transformers can be used, but their inrush current often trips inverter protection. This paper explores this issue, emphasizing the need for specially designed low-induction transformers.

Abstract

Installing grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) systems is challenging in regions with nonstandard grid voltages, as PV inverters are designed for standard levels. To overcome this limitation, transformers can be used, but their inrush current often trips inverter protection. This paper explores this issue, emphasizing the need for specially designed low-induction transformers.
