Abstract (EN): In renewable and distributed generation systems the grid voltage quality can be poor. So, the connection of power converters to the grid requires accurate control of synchronism between the two sources. The paper discusses issues on synchronization of power converters connected to the mains and related control methods. In this paper a new zero crossing synchronizer is proposed having zero error in steady state, moderate speed response to grid frequency changes and amplitude voltage variations, and immunity to phase unbalance, harmonics and noise. The speed response, and harmonics and noise immunity are a trade-off. Simulation results and experiments based on synthesized voltage grids with strong disturbances in the grid voltage show the robustness of the proposed method.
