Figure 4.11 AC <strong>and</strong> DC Currents on the Voltage Sourced Inverter.<br />

The apparent phase <strong>of</strong> the inverter is given by:<br />

This last expression when combined with the expression for the active power allows to give a<br />

value for the inverter ratings starting from the value <strong>of</strong> the power <strong>of</strong> the prime mover <strong>and</strong> the<br />

power factor chosen:<br />

The maximum output power <strong>of</strong> the prime mover is the maximum active power that the inverter<br />

may ever be requested to deliver, while the maximum amount <strong>of</strong> reactive power that is injected<br />

is determined by the choice <strong>of</strong> the power factor.<br />

The transformer has the task to interface the three-phase world <strong>of</strong> the inverter terminals with the<br />

4 wire environment on the feeder side to allow for single phase loads to be connected. The delta<br />

configuration on the inverter side <strong>of</strong> the transformer is a direct consequence <strong>of</strong> the fact that the<br />

inverter generates voltage on a line to line basis between phases. The feeder side <strong>of</strong> the<br />

transformer is wired at wye, with the center <strong>of</strong> the star available to be connected to the neutral<br />
