[0002] In energy storage systems, the charging and discharging of power is typically controlled by a three-phase energy storage inverter. Energy storage systems generally include grid-connected and off-grid modes.

While three-phase energy storage inverters have both positive and negative phase sequences when connected to the three-phase power grid, incorrect wiring can lead to inconsistencies in phase sequence between grid-connected and off-grid modes. This causes the energy storage system to malfunction, preventing the switching between grid-connected and off-grid modes.

[0028] To ensure that the three-phase energy storage inverter can switch between grid-connected and off-grid modes normally, the existing grid-connected and off-grid switching methods usually fix the phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter in grid-connected and off-grid modes, for example, fix it to positive sequence or negative sequence, and adjust the wiring phase sequence in grid-connected mode to be consistent with the wiring phase sequence in off-grid mode, resulting in poor power distribution flexibility.

[0029] In view of this, the embodiments of this application first propose a grid-connected / off-grid switching method, which is applied to a three-phase energy storage inverter. The three-phase energy storage inverter is suitable for various phase sequence combinations in off-grid and grid-connected modes. The three-phase energy storage inverter is used to achieve seamless switching between off-grid control loop and grid-connected control loop under different phase sequences, and ensures that the electrical connection between the three-phase energy storage inverter and the load is not interrupted during the switching process. The power distribution method is simple and has low complexity.

[0030] Specifically, please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating the first embodiment of the on-grid / off-grid handover method provided in this application. Figure 1 As shown, the on-grid / off-grid handover method includes the following steps:

[0031] Step S11: Obtain the first phase sequence and second phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter in different modes.

[0032] Specifically, a three-phase energy storage inverter can include off-grid mode and grid-connected mode. In grid-connected mode, the three-phase energy storage inverter is connected to the three-phase power grid and can be used to supply power to the three-phase power grid. In off-grid mode, the three-phase energy storage inverter outputs power that meets the load conditions to the corresponding load through three-phase off-grid connection. The first phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter can be the phase sequence of either off-grid mode or grid-connected mode, and the second phase sequence can be the phase sequence of the other of either off-grid mode or grid-connected mode.

[0033] In a three-phase energy storage inverter, electromotive force is induced by cutting the windings of phases A, B, and C during operation, thereby generating signals between different phases, such as phase A, phase B, and phase C signals. Depending on the phase order of phases A, B, and C, the first and second phase sequences can include positive and negative sequences. A positive sequence means phase A leads phase B by 120 degrees, and phase B leads phase C by 120 degrees; a negative sequence means phase A leads phase C by 120 degrees, and phase C leads phase B by 120 degrees.

[0034] Step S12: Synchronize the first phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter with the second phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter.

[0035] After obtaining the first and second phase sequences of the three-phase energy storage inverter, the first and second phase sequences of the three-phase energy storage inverter are synchronized. Specifically, when the first and second phase sequences are different, synchronization can be achieved by updating the first phase sequence to the same sequence as the second phase sequence, or by updating the second phase sequence to the same sequence as the first phase sequence. For example, when the first phase sequence is positive and the second phase sequence is negative, synchronization can be achieved by switching the first phase sequence to negative or the second phase sequence to positive.

[0036] Step S13: Control the three-phase energy storage inverter to switch between the grid-connected control loop and the off-grid control loop.

[0037] When the first and second phase sequences of the three-phase energy storage inverter are synchronized (e.g., both are positive or both are negative), the inverter is controlled to switch from the grid-connected control loop to the off-grid control loop, or vice versa. Because the first and second phase sequences are synchronized, the connection between the three-phase energy storage inverter and the load does not need to be disconnected during the switching process, allowing for flexible phase sequence settings during power distribution and improving distribution flexibility.

[0038] In this embodiment of the application, the phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter in off-grid mode and grid-connected mode can be identified by the above method to obtain the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence. By synchronizing the first phase sequence with the second phase sequence, the three-phase energy storage inverter can switch between off-grid mode and grid-connected mode under different phase sequences. There is no need to fix the phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter, which reduces the system complexity of the three-phase energy storage inverter and improves the power distribution flexibility of the three-phase energy storage inverter.

[0039] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating the second embodiment of the on-grid / off-grid handover method provided in this application. Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the on-grid / off-grid handover method includes the following steps:

[0040] Step S21: When the three-phase grid connected to the three-phase energy storage inverter is operating normally, obtain the first phase sequence of the three-phase grid connected to the three-phase energy storage inverter and the second phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter in off-grid mode.

[0041] Specifically, when the three-phase grid connected to the three-phase energy storage inverter is operating normally, the three-phase energy storage inverter operates in grid-connected mode. The voltage phase sequence when the three-phase energy storage inverter is connected to the three-phase grid is the first phase sequence, which can include either a positive or negative sequence. At this time, a second phase sequence can be set for the three-phase energy storage inverter in off-grid mode. For example, the second phase sequence can be set to either a positive or negative sequence.

[0042] Step S22: Synchronize the first phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter with the second phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter.

[0043] After obtaining the first and second phase sequences of the three-phase energy storage inverter, the first and second phase sequences of the three-phase energy storage inverter are synchronized. Specifically, when the first and second phase sequences are different, synchronization can be achieved by updating the first phase sequence to the same sequence as the second phase sequence, or by updating the second phase sequence to the same sequence as the first phase sequence. For example, when the first phase sequence is positive and the second phase sequence is negative, synchronization can be achieved by adjusting the second phase sequence to positive; or, when the first phase sequence is negative and the second phase sequence is positive, synchronization can be achieved by adjusting the second phase sequence to negative; or, when both the first and second phase sequences are positive or negative, no adjustment is made to the first or second phase sequence.

[0044] Step S23: When the three-phase power grid connection is abnormal, control the synchronized three-phase energy storage inverter to switch from the grid-connected control loop to the off-grid control loop.

[0045] The grid-connected / off-grid control method in this embodiment can monitor parameters such as voltage, current, or power when the three-phase grid is connected to the three-phase energy storage inverter to determine whether the three-phase grid connection is normal. When unstable fluctuations occur in the parameters of the three-phase grid, an abnormal connection is determined, and the synchronized three-phase energy storage inverter is controlled to switch from the grid-connected control loop to the off-grid control loop, thus switching the three-phase energy storage inverter from grid-connected mode to off-grid mode, and continuing to supply power to the load in off-grid mode.

[0046] In this embodiment, the grid-connected / off-grid control method can obtain the first phase sequence of the three-phase grid connected to the three-phase energy storage inverter and the second phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter in off-grid mode when the three-phase grid is operating normally. It then controls the first phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter to synchronize with the second phase sequence, achieving pre-synchronization of the phase sequence. When the three-phase grid connection is abnormal, it controls the synchronized three-phase energy storage inverter to switch from the grid-connected control loop to the off-grid control loop, achieving a smooth switching between grid-connected and off-grid modes and reducing the impact on the load during the switching process. Through this method, the three-phase energy storage inverter of this application can switch from grid-connected mode to off-grid mode under different phase sequences without fixing the phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter, reducing the system complexity of the three-phase energy storage inverter, eliminating the need for manual wiring adjustments, and improving the power distribution flexibility of the three-phase energy storage inverter.

[0047] Optionally, please see Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating the third embodiment of the on-grid / off-grid handover method provided in this application. Figure 3 As shown, step S12 or step S22 may include the following steps:

[0048] Step S31: Determine whether the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence are the same.

[0049] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first phase sequence is the phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter in grid-connected mode, and the second phase sequence is the phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter in off-grid mode. The first phase sequence can be obtained by identifying the phase sequence of the signals of the three-phase energy storage inverter under the grid-connected control loop, and the second phase sequence is usually the default phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter under the off-grid control loop.

[0050] After obtaining the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence, it can be determined whether the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence are the same. If the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence are the same, for example, both the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence are positive or negative, then proceed to step S23; if the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence are different, then proceed to step S22.

[0051] Step S32: In response to the difference between the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence, update the second phase sequence to be synchronized with the first phase sequence.

[0052] When the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence are different, the second phase sequence is updated to be synchronized with the first phase sequence. For example, when the three-phase energy storage inverter is in grid-connected mode, the second phase sequence in off-grid mode can be updated to be synchronized with the first phase sequence; when the three-phase energy storage inverter is in off-grid mode, the second phase sequence in off-grid mode can be updated to be synchronized with the first phase sequence.

[0053] When the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence are the same, the step of switching the three-phase energy storage inverter from the first control loop to the second control loop is executed. For example, when the three-phase energy storage inverter is in grid-connected mode, the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence are synchronized, and the three-phase energy storage inverter is switched from the grid-connected control loop to the off-grid control loop; when the three-phase energy storage inverter is in off-grid mode, the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence are synchronized, and the three-phase energy storage inverter is switched from the off-grid control loop to the grid-connected control loop. Through the above method, the grid-connected and off-grid switching method of this embodiment can realize automatic switching between off-grid mode and grid-connected mode under different phase sequences, without fixing the phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter, reducing the system complexity of the three-phase energy storage inverter, and improving the power distribution flexibility of the three-phase energy storage inverter.

[0054] Optionally, please see Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a flowchart illustrating the fourth embodiment of the on-grid / off-grid handover method provided in this application. Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, step S11 includes:

[0055] Step S41: Obtain the grid voltage data of the three-phase energy storage inverter.

[0056] The grid-connected / off-grid switching method in this embodiment can identify the first phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter by recognizing the grid voltage data when the three-phase energy storage inverter is connected to the three-phase grid. Specifically, when the three-phase grid connected to the three-phase energy storage inverter is operating normally, the grid voltage data during the operation of the three-phase energy storage inverter can be directly obtained.

[0057] Step S42: Perform coordinate transformation on the grid voltage data to obtain the quadrature voltage data of the three-phase energy storage inverter.

[0058] The grid voltage data refers to the voltage data of the three-phase energy storage inverter in grid-connected mode. This grid voltage data can include phase A, phase B, and phase C voltage data. By performing coordinate transformations on the phase A, phase B, and phase C voltage data, orthogonal voltage data for the three-phase energy storage inverter is obtained. The orthogonal voltage data uses one of the phase A, phase B, or phase C voltage data as a reference, transforming the other two data into components perpendicular to it. Coordinate transformation methods include, but are not limited to, Clark and Park transformations, and are not specifically limited here.

[0059] Step S43: Based on the quadrature voltage data, obtain the first phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter.

[0060] After obtaining the quadrature voltage data of the three-phase energy storage inverter, the first phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter can be determined as positive or negative based on the quadrature voltage data.

[0061] In this embodiment, grid voltage data of the three-phase energy storage inverter is obtained, and coordinate transformation is performed on the grid voltage data to obtain orthogonal voltage data of the three-phase energy storage inverter. Based on the orthogonal voltage data, the first phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter is obtained. When the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence are different, the second phase sequence is updated to be synchronized with the first phase sequence. This enables the three-phase energy storage inverter to switch between grid-connected mode and off-grid mode under different phase sequences without fixing the phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter, reducing the system complexity of the three-phase energy storage inverter and improving the power distribution flexibility of the three-phase energy storage inverter.

[0062] Furthermore, the quadrature voltage data includes the first voltage component and the second voltage component of the grid voltage data under different coordinate axes. Step S43 includes: acquiring the second voltage component at the zero-crossing moment of the first voltage component in the positive direction; determining the first phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter as positive sequence in response to the second voltage component being less than a preset value; and determining the first phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter as negative sequence in response to the second voltage component being greater than or equal to a preset value.

[0063] Specifically, after performing coordinate transformation on the grid voltage data, the first voltage component and the second voltage component of the grid voltage data in a two-dimensional coordinate system are obtained. The grid voltage data may include the A-phase voltage data U. a Phase B voltage data U b And C-phase voltage data U c The first voltage component U a Second voltage component U β The calculation formula is as follows:

[0064]

[0065] In this embodiment, the direction in which the sine wave of the first voltage component crosses zero at 0° is considered positive, and the direction in which the sine wave of the first voltage component crosses zero at 180° is considered negative. This embodiment obtains the second voltage component corresponding to the zero-crossing moment of the first voltage component at angle 0, and determines the relationship between the second voltage component and a preset value. When the second voltage is less than the preset value, the first phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter is positive; when the second voltage component is greater than or equal to the preset value, the first phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter is negative. The preset value can be 0.

[0066] In this application, by obtaining the second voltage component at the zero-crossing moment of the first voltage component in the positive direction, and determining the first phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter as positive when the second voltage component is less than a preset value; and determining the first phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter as negative when the second voltage component is greater than or equal to the preset value; and updating the second phase sequence to be synchronized with the first phase sequence when the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence are different, the three-phase energy storage inverter can switch between the first mode and the second mode under different phase sequences, without the need to fix the phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter, thereby reducing the system complexity of the three-phase energy storage inverter and improving the power distribution flexibility of the three-phase energy storage inverter.

[0067] Optionally, step S32 includes: when the first phase sequence is positive and the second phase sequence is negative, updating the second phase sequence to positive so that the second phase sequence is synchronized with the first phase sequence; when the first phase sequence is negative and the second phase sequence is positive, updating the second phase sequence to negative so that the second phase sequence is synchronized with the first phase sequence.

[0068] Specifically, when the first phase sequence is positive and the second phase sequence is negative, the second phase sequence is updated to positive so that the second phase sequence is the same as the first phase sequence. The three-phase energy storage inverter performs power distribution control in positive sequence in both off-grid and grid-connected modes. This allows the three-phase energy storage inverter to seamlessly switch between off-grid and grid-connected modes in the event of power outages or grid fluctuations, without disconnecting the connection between the three-phase energy storage inverter and the load during the switching process.

[0069] Optionally, the second phase sequence includes the A-phase signal, B-phase signal, and C-phase signal output by the three-phase energy storage inverter in off-grid mode; step S22 includes: in response to the difference between the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence, swapping the B-phase signal and the C-phase signal of the second phase sequence to synchronize the second phase sequence with the first phase sequence.

[0070] Specifically, the three-phase energy storage inverter can obtain phase A, phase B, and phase C signals by sequentially sampling phases A, C, and B. After obtaining the first phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter through phase sequence identification, it is determined whether the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence are the same. If the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence are different, the second phase sequence can be synchronized by swapping the B phase signal and the C phase signal of the second phase sequence, thereby switching the second phase sequence from positive sequence to negative sequence, or vice versa.

[0071] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a flowchart illustrating the fifth embodiment of the on-grid / off-grid handover method provided in this application. Figure 5 As shown, the on-grid / off-grid handover method also includes the following steps:

[0072] Step S51: When the three-phase energy storage inverter is in off-grid mode, determine the current second phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter.

[0073] Specifically, when the three-phase power grid connected to the three-phase energy storage inverter is operating normally, the three-phase energy storage inverter operates under the grid-connected control loop; when the three-phase power grid connection is abnormal, the three-phase energy storage inverter can be controlled to switch from the grid-connected control loop to the off-grid control loop through the method of any of the above embodiments.

[0074] When the three-phase energy storage inverter is under the off-grid control loop, the current second phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter is determined. The second phase sequence is the electrical signal phase sequence under the current control loop. The second phase sequence can be positive or negative.

[0075] Step S52: Determine whether the connection between the three-phase energy storage inverter and the three-phase power grid is abnormal.

[0076] After determining the current second phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter, it is necessary to further determine whether the connection between the three-phase energy storage inverter and the three-phase power grid is abnormal. Specifically, this can be done by monitoring the voltage, current, and other electrical signals on the connection side between the three-phase energy storage inverter and the three-phase power grid to determine whether the connection between the three-phase energy storage inverter and the three-phase power grid is abnormal.

[0077] Step S53: In response to the normal connection of the three-phase power grid, obtain the first phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter connected to the three-phase power grid.

[0078] Specifically, when an anomaly is detected in the three-phase grid connection, the three-phase energy storage inverter remains in the off-grid control loop. When a normal three-phase grid connection is detected, the first phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter connected to the three-phase grid can be further obtained. The first phase sequence can be either positive or negative. This can be achieved by monitoring electrical signals or voltage data from the voltage and current signals on the connection side between the three-phase energy storage inverter and the three-phase grid, or by further sampling the signals on the connection side after confirming a normal connection. No specific limitation is made here.

[0079] Step S54: Synchronize the first phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter with the second phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter, so as to switch the synchronized three-phase energy storage inverter from the off-grid control loop to the grid-connected control loop.

[0080] After obtaining the first phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter, it is determined whether the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence are the same. When the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence are the same, they are synchronized, and the three-phase energy storage inverter can be directly switched from the off-grid control loop to the grid-connected control loop. When the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence are different, the second phase sequence is updated to be synchronized with the first phase sequence, so that the synchronized three-phase energy storage inverter can be switched from the off-grid control loop to the grid-connected control loop. In a possible implementation, the second phase sequence may include phase A signal, phase B signal, and phase C signal. When the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence are different, the second phase sequence can be synchronized with the first phase sequence by swapping the phase B signal and the phase C signal of the second phase sequence.

[0081] Specifically, before synchronizing the first phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter with the second phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter, the three-phase energy storage inverter is first controlled to exit the off-grid control loop before phase sequence synchronization is performed. After phase sequence synchronization, it re-enters the off-grid control loop and switches the synchronized three-phase energy storage inverter from the off-grid control loop to the grid-connected control loop.

[0082] Through the above method, the grid-connected / off-grid switching method of this embodiment monitors the connection between the three-phase energy storage inverter and the three-phase power grid in off-grid mode. When the connection to the three-phase power grid is confirmed to be normal, the first phase sequence of the three-phase power grid is obtained. After synchronizing the first phase sequence with the second phase sequence, the three-phase energy storage inverter is switched from the off-grid control loop to the grid-connected control loop. This allows the three-phase energy storage inverter to switch from off-grid mode to grid-connected mode without interrupting the power supply to the load, achieving a smooth switching between grid-connected and off-grid modes and reducing the impact on the load during the switching process. Furthermore, adaptive switching between off-grid and grid-connected modes can be achieved under different phase sequences. The operation is simple, reducing the system complexity of the three-phase energy storage inverter and improving its power distribution flexibility.

[0083] Optionally, step S52 above further includes: obtaining the voltage modulus and voltage limit of the three-phase energy storage inverter; and determining whether the connection between the three-phase energy storage inverter and the three-phase power grid is abnormal based on the relationship between the voltage modulus and voltage limit.

[0084] The voltage magnitude value of the three-phase energy storage inverter is obtained. The voltage magnitude value is the instantaneous phase voltage value of the three-phase energy storage inverter, which can be obtained from the quadrature voltage data of the three-phase energy storage inverter. For example, the first voltage component U of the three-phase energy storage inverter can be obtained by performing coordinate transformation on the voltage data of the three-phase energy storage inverter under off-grid control loop. a Second voltage component U β The first voltage component U of the three-phase energy storage inverter is obtained. α Second voltage component U β Then, the voltage magnitude V can be calculated using the following formula. m :

[0085]

[0086] The voltage limits of a three-phase energy storage inverter are used to indicate the range of values ​​of the three-phase power grid to which the inverter is connected. For example, the voltage limits may include the upper and lower limits of the grid voltage. After obtaining the voltage magnitude and voltage limits, the voltage magnitude is compared with the voltage limits to determine their magnitude relationship. This relationship is then used to determine whether the three-phase grid connection is abnormal. Specifically, if the voltage magnitude is greater than or equal to the lower limit of the grid voltage and less than or equal to the upper limit of the grid voltage, the three-phase grid connection is considered normal; if the voltage magnitude is less than the lower limit of the grid voltage or greater than the upper limit of the grid voltage, the three-phase grid connection is considered abnormal.

[0087] Due to an abnormal three-phase grid connection of the three-phase energy storage inverter, the inverter is under off-grid control. By continuously monitoring the connection status of the three-phase grid through the above steps, it can be determined whether the connection has been restored. When the current voltage magnitude of the three-phase energy storage inverter is greater than or equal to the lower limit voltage of the grid and less than or equal to the upper limit voltage of the grid, it is determined that the connection of the three-phase grid has been restored to normal. The grid-connected and off-grid control method of this embodiment can control the three-phase energy storage inverter, after phase sequence synchronization, to switch from the off-grid control loop to the grid-connected control loop. The switching is rapid and does not require interruption of the connection between the three-phase energy storage inverter and the load, thus improving the practicality of the three-phase energy storage inverter.

[0088] In one embodiment, step S23 may include the following steps: obtaining the voltage magnitude and voltage limit of the three-phase energy storage inverter; determining whether the connection between the three-phase energy storage inverter and the three-phase power grid is abnormal based on the relationship between the voltage magnitude and voltage limit; and controlling the three-phase energy storage inverter to switch from the grid-connected control loop to the off-grid control loop in response to the abnormal connection of the three-phase power grid.

[0089] Specifically, in this embodiment, the voltage magnitude can be obtained by performing coordinate transformation on the grid voltage data of the three-phase energy storage inverter under the grid-connected control loop. The voltage limits include the upper limit voltage and the lower limit voltage of the three-phase grid. By comparing the voltage magnitude with the voltage limits, if the voltage magnitude is greater than or equal to the lower limit voltage and less than or equal to the upper limit voltage, the three-phase grid connection is determined to be normal; if the voltage magnitude is less than the lower limit voltage or greater than the upper limit voltage, the three-phase grid connection is determined to be abnormal.

[0090] When an abnormal connection is detected between the three-phase energy storage inverter and the three-phase power grid, the three-phase energy storage inverter is controlled to exit the grid-connected control loop and switch to the off-grid control loop, so that the three-phase energy storage inverter can continue to output off-grid voltage to the load without interrupting the power supply to the load.

[0091] In this embodiment, when the three-phase energy storage inverter operates under the grid-connected control loop, the first phase sequence and the second phase sequence of the three-phase energy storage inverter can be obtained and synchronized to achieve pre-synchronization of the phase sequence. When it is determined that the grid connection of the three-phase energy storage inverter is abnormal based on the relationship between the voltage magnitude and the voltage limit, the three-phase energy storage inverter is controlled to switch from the grid-connected control loop to the off-grid control loop to achieve adaptive switching between off-grid mode and grid-connected mode under different phase sequences. The operation is simple, the system complexity of the three-phase energy storage inverter is reduced, and the power distribution flexibility of the three-phase energy storage inverter is improved.

[0092] Through the above methods, the grid-connected / off-grid switching method of this application embodiment can be applied to various phase sequence situations of three-phase power grids and three-phase off-grid operation. It can control the three-phase energy storage inverter to switch between grid-connected and off-grid operations under different connection conditions without fixing the phase sequence. When the three-phase power grid connected to the three-phase energy storage inverter is operating normally, the phase sequence can be pre-synchronized by acquiring the first and second phase sequences. This allows the three-phase energy storage inverter to directly switch between grid-connected and off-grid operations based on the pre-synchronized first and second phase sequences when abnormal situations such as three-phase power grid fluctuations occur. The switching process is smooth, reducing the impact on the load during the switching process without interrupting power supply. Furthermore, the grid-connected / off-grid switching method of this embodiment can be applied to different phase sequences, improving the adaptability and flexibility of the three-phase energy storage inverter to the three-phase power grid, reducing switching operations by grid personnel, and improving the user experience. The grid-connected / off-grid switching method of this embodiment can execute the process from detecting a three-phase power grid abnormality to completing the mode switching within 10ms, quickly switching the mode of the three-phase energy storage inverter without interrupting the connection between the three-phase energy storage inverter and the load, thus improving the practicality of the three-phase energy storage inverter.
