  • Publication number: 20160179991
    Abstract: A microgrid troubleshooting method entails, connecting a first trouble simulating unit between a utility electricity and an AC load, wherein an AC end of a second trouble simulating unit connects with the AC load, and a DC end of the second trouble simulating unit connects with a solar power generating unit, an energy-storing unit, a fuel cell unit, and a DC load; switching the second trouble simulating unit to a short-circuit state, measuring a microgrid earth potential rise, short-circuit current of the solar power generating unit, and short-circuit current of the energy-storing unit, and checking whether the microgrid is damaged; and switching the first trouble simulating unit to a short-circuit state, measuring a microgrid earth potential rise, and checking whether the microgrid is damaged. The method is effective in simulating troubles with the microgrid, measuring the microgrid's short-circuit current, and testing whether the microgrid's protection mechanism is functioning well.
