    Abstract: Power converters have been widely used in power systems to improve the quality and magnitude of the power drawn from renewable energy sources. An LCL filter for connection of an inverter to the grid is often used to reduce the harmonics generated by the inverter. Based on the different design methodologies, optimal parameters of LCL filters tend to... Show More

    Abstract: The dry type cast resin transformer shall be suitable for usage under expected climate conditions. It shall be self-extinguishing and shall not produce toxic gases in the event of fire. This is verified by the Climatic, Environmental and Fire withstand behaviour test as per 60076-11. This paper gives the design features of a 1600 kVA dry type cast ... Show More
