Abstract

Because of the lack of galvanic isolation, the leakage current causes problems in transformerless three-phase photovoltaic (PV) systems. The conventional three-phase photovoltaic inverter failed to limit the leakage current in a constructive way. In order to solve the leakage current problems in the conventional three-phase photovoltaic inverter, a three-phase transformerless H10 inverter is proposed by combining the conventional four-leg inverter of two switched-boost networks in this paper. The proposed three-phase transformerless H10 inverter has the major features as shoot-through immunity, boost voltage with one-stage conversion. Furthermore, a common-mode voltage of the proposed three-phase transformerless H10 inverter is kept constant during switching cycles. The operating principles for the proposed three-phase transformerless H10 inverter are presented. Finally, the proposed three-phase transformerless H10 inverter topology is tested, and the results validate the effectiveness of the proposed three-phase transformerless H10 inverter topology.
