PELs are currently of great interest in the field of microgrid research, isolated or hybrid solar plants and power electronics device testing. This paper presents a review of PELs focusing on hardware topologies. Different hardware configurations are presented and discussed, explaining their functionality. One of the key issues regarding PELs design is the elimination of excessive active power drawn by the load. This can be performed by dissipating power in passive elements through DC-DC converters or re-injecting it into a receptive AC grid. Both options are explained and detailed in the paper.","PeriodicalId":192905,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE Workshop on Power Electronics and Power Quality Applications (PEPQA)","volume":"128 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131056063","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One approach to identify loads is through non-intrusive load monitoring systems that estimate the nature and operation of individual appliances with measurements in a single point. In this work, load identification is addressed as a classification task by taking advantage of power quality information. Therefore, discriminant analysis of power quality characteristics are proposed, thus requiring simpler design and fitting processes than traditional techniques. In this regard, classifiers based on linear and quadratic discriminant analysis are implemented for laboratory measurements with noticeable performance.","PeriodicalId":192905,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE Workshop on Power Electronics and Power Quality Applications (PEPQA)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127538320","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A Microgrid can be described as a group of interconnected loads and distributed energy resources (DER) inside some distinct electrical boundaries that act as a single controllable unit relating to the grid. It should be capable of safe transitioning from the grid and reconnection back to the grid; with the voltages, frequency, etc. of all devices still operating within their allowed limits. Although system resilience and continuous supply is one of the main proponents for the establishment of microgrids, it could also be used to electrify an off grid or remote area, far from the grid.

The simulation is performed by doing a real-time simulation between OPAL-RT and NI MyRIO platforms. These modules are used to build the synchronverter, which is connected to the grid and other synchronverter. Analysis based on the frequency, voltage, current and power are performed, for both transient and steady state. Finally, sensibility tests are carried out.
