ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION
368
Figure 2 shows the control models of the PV inverter while Figure 3
shows the pulse width modulation technique used for high frequency switching in
PV inverter model. The simple P and Q regulation are used for inverter control
system. For real power regulation, the measuring dc voltage is compared to the
reference dc voltage. The error between two values is processed as an angle
voltage through a proportional-integral (PI) controller. Similarly for reactive
power regulation, the error compared between the desired and actual value of
reactive power, then, processed into magnitude voltage through a proportional-
integral (PI) controller. The output from the inverter controller is used for firing
pulse generation in PWM technique.

TEST SYSTEMS DESCRIPTION
The PV model has been implemented in the IEEE 13 bus test system
(Shahad, 2005) as shown in Figure 4. The system consists of two generators,
supplying power to the seven static loads. Since there are only static loads, the
system is free from voltage and current harmonic distortions. Therefore, this
system is suitable for connecting the developed PV system model and analyzes
the impact of harmonics on the system. In the simulation, the PV inverter is
connected to each load bus, one at a time.

and voltage THD is at the bus 3. Therefore, the suitable allocation of PV inverter
for this case is at bus 3. It means that the value of voltage level will significantly
affect the value of THD current and voltage, although the rating of PV is similar
for each case. Figure 5 shows the distorted current and voltage waveforms when
a PV inverter was installed at bus 12.
