Abstract
This paper investigates the suitability of instantaneous average current sharing scheme (IACS) for the parallel operation of three-phase uninterruptible power supply systems. A discrete-time model is developed for the analysis and design of the control loops. Some key issues are discussed based on the model and it is found that there is a compromise between system stability and current sharing performance with the conventional IACS scheme when the lengths of interconnecting cables are not negligible. Subsequently, an improved IACS scheme is proposed that ensures proper current sharing by extending the close-loop bandwidth. Its performance is analytically predicted and subsequently validated by experimental results on a 15-kW laboratory prototype.
