Abstract: A transformer based voltage sag generator to test renewable energy systems is presented. Design considerations concerning overvoltages and overcurrents during switching action are adressed. Measurement results of a 30 kW laboratory prototype testing a line side PWM converter and a DFIG are presented. Both measurement results for investigations on the transformer based sag generator at the line side converter and the DFIG show the superb fuctionality of the sag generator. Voltage dips of variable depth, duration time and fault type can be generated without overvoltages or voltage interruptions.

Abstract: DFIGs’ ability to generate power decreases considerably during faults. Nevertheless, it is still not clear how such a reduction is developed. Consequently, the system may be over demanded, ending up tripping the wind turbine. Thereby, this paper presents an analysis of DFIGs’ capability to generate power and ride-through asymmetric faults.
