fossil fuels, renewable sources, spearheaded by solar energy, have garnered substantial societal attention, thereby propelling advancements in photovoltaics (PVs). In the realm of grid-connected (GC) PV systems, a pressing issue is the leakage current suppression in non-isolated GC PV inverters.
When the photovoltaic system regenerates power, it will also generate leakage current, also called common mode current. This is due to the parasitic capacitance between the photovoltaic system and the ground. At this time, a loop is formed between the power grid, the photovoltaic system, and the parasitic capacitance.
The leakage current of the photovoltaic system has two characteristics: 1. The leakage current is complicated, divided into DC part and AC part; 2. The current secondary value is very small, all in the milliampere level, which requires extremely high accuracy and requires a dedicated current sensor.
The leakage current generated by the photovoltaic system generally includes both the DC part and the AC part. When it is connected to the grid, it is very easy to cause electromagnetic interference and other problems, which not only damages the equipment in the grid, but also may cause electric shock hazards to users or staff.
