The harmonics currents percentages exhibit a strong dependence on the PV inverter relative power. When the inverter is operating at nominal rated power, each individual harmonic current should be limited based on the technical standards.
Since the penetration of photovoltaic (PV) systems in the Low Voltage (LV) distribution network is increasing, the need to characterize and model the effect of these systems on power quality parameters is an up-to-date issue. Also, the reactive power capability of PV inverter should be defined and discussed.
The current waveform is relatively smooth and sinusoidal as the inverter output current flows into the inductor in which it cannot change instantaneously. Figure 3 compares the power stage output to the inverter output current. In the time domain, the waveforms do not look very different.
