[0002] With the development of the distribution network, the load growth in some areas has exceeded expectations, causing overload in the power grid equipment. With the increase in the proportion of new energy, problems such as "power reverse transmission" have gradually become serious. At present, the traditional power grid's new point layout method is limited by line corridor resources and has high investment. There is an electromagnetic ring network problem in the interconnection line through the interconnection switch. Therefore, it is necessary to realize flexible power regulation and dynamic capacity expansion through flexible interconnection technology. It is necessary to provide reasonable nodes and paths for the consumption of new energy. In the field of large-capacity and high-power power electronic conversion technology, multi-level converters can realize flexible ring solutions by using modular cascade technology.

[0003] The flexible loop device realizes the function of partition interconnection and connects the two power supplies through power electronic equipment.
