Abstract—Grid-forming (GFM) inverters are increasingly rec-ognized as a solution to facilitate massive grid integration of inverter-based resources and enable 100% power-electronics-based power systems. However, the overcurrent characteristics of GFM inverters exhibit major differences from those of conven-tional synchronous machines.
Automatic recovery of the grid-connected protection: After the grid-tied inverter stops supplying power to the grid because of the fault of the grid, the grid-tie inverter should be able to automatically send power to the grid 5 min after the grid voltage and frequency return to the normal range for 20s.
