The present invention belongs to the technical field of power electronic
converters and discloses a medium-
voltage distribution network flexible
interconnection switch topology and control method. The medium-
voltage distribution network flexible
interconnection switch topology provided by the present invention includes three connected reactors L1, three connected reactors L3, two chain-type STATCOMs, two three-phase isolation transformers, two three-phase LC filters, two three-phase
inverter circuits, and a DC port. Back-to-back three-phase
converters are introduced at the ends of the chain-type STATCOMs of two feeders. Through the back-to-back three-phase
converters,
active power flow mutualization between the two medium-
voltage chain-type STATCOMs, that is, between two different feeders, can be achieved. The present invention can achieve
DC capacitor voltage balancing of the chain-type STATCOM submodules of the two feeders. Compared with the BTB-VSC commonly used in existing medium-voltage distribution network flexible
interconnection demonstration projects, this solution has lower cost, simpler topology, easier control, and does not need to consider the active and reactive power decoupling issues between interconnected feeders, making it easy to promote and apply on a large scale.
