Abstract:
The common mode current is one of the key factors limiting the widespread use of transformerless PV inverters. Thus,A new three-phase Buck-Boost inverter which can be used in solar PV systems is proposed in this paper to solve this problem. This paper firstly introduces the topology of the inverter,analyzing its working principle,deriving the expression of its common-mode voltage at any operating mode. The influence of the Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation(SPWM)on common-mode voltage(CMV)existing in this inverter and leakage current are then analyzed. Finally,the above scheme is verified by the simulation and experimental setup.According to the results and data from the experiments,this new inverter is effective and feasible.
