Abstract
Abstract In a power interconnection system between an electric power system and a power converter which makes AC power from a DC power source, a positive feed-back loop is constituted so as to include a frequency deviation detector, a band-pass filter, an inert zone circuit, an amplifier, an adder, a phase controller, an inverter controller, an inverter and an interconnection reactor. Thereby a sufficiently great frequency fluctuation is made after opening of a branch line switch, so as to produce a frequency abnormality signal to be given to a disconnection switch; and disconnection is made certainly.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
196 words
Interconnection system for electric power system for interconnection between an electric power system and a power converter which includes an inverter for converting a DC power into a converted AC power, thereby to supply AC power to a load or loads from said electric power system and said inverter, said interconnection system comprising: a frequency deviation detector for detecting frequency deviation of said converted AC power outputted from said inverted and issuing a first signal, a band-pass filter for passing a selected frequency band component from said first signal, an inert zone circuit for passing output signal from said band-pass filter only for the component having levels above a predetermined threshold level, thereby outputting a third signal, a control circuit for positively feeding back said third output signal, thereby to increase frequency deviation of said converted AC power from said inverter, and an output abnormality detector for making a disconnection of said inverter from said interconnection with said electric power system, when frequency deviation of said inverter exceeds a predetermined reference value of frequency deviation, or when deviation of intensity of output current or output power of said inverter exceeds a predetermined reference level for deviation.
