Abstract: A system for handling short circuits on an electrical network comprising parallel operated units which are droop controlled for active and reactive power sharing and connected to each other via impedances and protection switches for detecting and handling a short circuit on the electrical network and for disconnecting the faulty part of the electrical network, said units including a DC-source and a grid forming voltage source inverter controlled by a cascaded control structure with an inner voltage control loop and a short circuit control for limiting the output current by changing the output voltage at the output terminals of the inverter as a function of the measured output current and a desired droop voltage provided by a droop controller for voltage and frequency power sharing.
