The presence of distributed generators in the distribution network results in an increase of the voltage magnitude close to these generators, during a fault elsewhere in the distribution system or in the transmission system. This voltage dip mitigation capability of converter-connected distributed generation (DG) units is dependent on the control strategy of the converter. To compare the influence of different types of converter-connected distributed generators on the voltage profile along distribution feeders during a fault, the quantity,“voltage ratio” is used. This voltage ratio is obtained by division of the voltage during the voltage dip by the voltage just before the voltage dip. The different converter types are modelled, and the influence on the voltage ratio is analysed.
