TC.ACS Grid Simulator Series Now with Extended Functionality for Development and Testing of Grid-Connected Inverters

The new High Impedance Mode allows the simulation of phase failures and short-term mains interruptions. Other features have been optimized. Learn more in this article.

Grid-connected inverters are used in a wide range of applications. In photovoltaic systems, for example, the direct current generated is converted into alternating current and fed into the power grid. Furthermore, inverters in conjunction with energy storage systems (batteries, capacitors, etc.) ensure that the stored energy is fed into the power grid when required.

New High Impedance Mode

With the latest firmware/software release of the TC.ACS Grid Simulator Series, a new functionality is available. It aims to simulate phase failures or short-term grid interruptions in a practical way. In addition to the already existing function of active phase voltage regulation to 0 V, the newly developed high-impedance mode can be used to decouple the TC.ACS load connection from the TC.ACS power stage. In this way, phase failures of individual phases or of the entire three-phase grid can be simulated in a very realistic and practical way.

In addition to the enhancements shown above, the Live Viewer as well as the Analog and Digital I/O Configuration have been made even more user-friendly.
