Abstract: This paper presents analysis and improvement of power quality (voltage sag, voltage swell)
performance of grid connected inverter used in distributed generation. The developed controller controls power
supplied by the DGs at the PCC. The controller is designed to deliver current at unity power factor at PCC. An
increase in reactive power demand and harmonics at PCC due to change of load and grid impedance variation,
would affect the system voltage at PCC.This paper proposes the structure of the designed controller consists of
output power with voltage control.
Keywords: Point of common coupling (PCC), Distributed generation (DG), Voltage Source Inverter (VSI)

The proposed system consists of PV panel
3) Transistor connected to the grid-interfacing inverter as shown
in block diagram. The voltage source inverter is a
PNP BEL100P key element of a DG system as it interfaces the
renewable energy source to the grid and delivers
NPN 2N2222 the generated power. Usually, photovoltaic energy
sources generate power at variable low dc voltage.
4) Resistors
The filter capacitor across the input terminals of the
1K inverter provides a constant dc link voltage. The dc-
link plays an important role in transferring this
100 variable power from PV panel to the grid.
It has two functions a) Amplification b) We are using PIC 16F877A for producing switching
Isolation. pulses to multilevel inverter. The microcontroller
are driven via the driver circuit so as to boost the
Load : RL Load voltage triggering signal to 9V.To avoid any
damage to micro controller due to direct passing of
Pulse generator: It consist of
230V supply to it we provide an isolator in the form
1) Bridge rectifier (1mA) of opt coupler in the same driver circuit.
