Output filter design for a grid-interconnected three-phase inverter

Abstract

Traditionally, LC filter is used for an inverter power supply. A grid-interconnected inverter, however, has some unique requirements that an LC filter may not be sufficient. This paper comprehensively discusses the design considerations of the output filter for the grid-interconnected inverter. Different passive damping filter solutions are compared and the optimized design guidelines are also proposed. Simulation results are provided to validate the design.
