  • Systems and methods for use in identifying and responding to type of grid fault event
    Patent number: 9843182
    Abstract: Systems (100), power modules (108), and methods for using in controlling a converter (110) coupled between a power generator (104) and an electric grid (102). A power module (108) includes the converter (110) configured to supply the output from the power generator (104) to the electric grid (102) and a controller (112) coupled to the converter (110) and configured to disable the converter (110) in response to a grid fault event, to identify the type or the grid fault event after a first predetermined interval from disabling the converter (110), and to enable switching of the converter (110), when the type of the grid fault event is identified as a low voltage condition.
