A novel H6 inverter topology is proposed with improved modulation strategy to nullify the fluctuations in common mode voltage and to eliminate the leakage current. The proposed inverter is a modification to the existing H5 inverter, with an additional switch between the negative terminal of the DC supply and the first leg of the H bridge.
Novel H6 transformerless inverter is proposed in this paper to eliminate the leakage current, reduce the conduction loss and increase the efficiency. The circuit for this inverter is shown in Figure 2.
The proposed H6 inverter can thus be a promising topology to eliminate leakage current and reduce conduction loss in the transformerless grid connected photovoltaic system. 1. Introduction In today’s ever growing energy demand all over the world, photovoltaics (PV) are playing a pivotal role in catering this demand as a source of renewable energy.
Thus, for a single phase grid connected PV system, the proposed novel H6 inverter can be a promising topology for eliminating leakage current, reducing conduction loss and enhancing the inverter efficiency.
This novel H6 inverter maintains constant common mode voltage and hence is responsible for eliminating the leakage current. This is achieved by modifying the H5 topology by inserting one switch between the negative terminal of the PV and the midpoint of the first leg of the bridge circuit.
The circuit for proposed novel H6 inverter was shown in Figure 2. The operation of this proposed novel H6 inverter is as follows. There are four operating modes in each cycle of the grid voltage. Mode I and Mode II are the active mode and freewheeling mode of the positive half cycle of the grid voltage.
