Abstract: Inverter power supply sources (DERs) are characterized by low current loss and zero negative and null series currents. Comprehension of the fault features of DER is important for fault analysis and safe relay setup. While DER modelling work has been abundant, there have been few research studies in DER fault behaviours. This paper looks at past Dominion Energy fault events. Fault scale, angle, and sequence components are evaluated to illustrate the possible difference between real DER response and previous understandings.
