Abstract:
To provide an interconnecting power generation system which can detect an abnormality in the utility power supply and can be isolated from a utility power system (10) and can prevent damage to a turbogenerator. An interconnecting power generation system comprises: an interconnecting inverter (14); a voltage phase shift circuit (20) which synchronizes the output voltage phase of the interconnecting inverter (14) with the utility power voltage phase and monitors zero crossings of the utility power voltage, and which shifts the output voltage phase from the utility power voltage phase and shifts the shifted output voltage phase to the utility power voltage phase; a phase comparator (24) for comparing the voltage phase of the utility power system (10) and the output voltage phase of the interconnecting inverter; and an interconnection control unit (30) which detects a power outage caused by an interruption of power supply from the utility power system (10) based on a series of a predetermined number of matching signals outputted from the phase comparator (24) and sends a control signal to a circuit breaker (22) to shut off the output of the interconnecting inverter (14) from the utility power system (10).

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a power converter which can perform protective operation when a power converter is actuated by an induction voltage generated from a synchronous motor, in a pump system being driven by the synchronous motor.SOLUTION: A control power supply 18 generates a low voltage DC power from a DC power generated by a DC voltage smoothing circuit 14, and an MCU 15 is driven by receiving the low voltage DC power supply from the control power supply 18. In order to determine whether the DC power stored in the DC voltage smoothing circuit 14 is input from a commercial power supply 1 or generated from a motor M, the MCU 15 compares an input voltage obtained from an input voltage measuring instrument 22 with a predetermined starting voltage of the control power supply 18. When a determination is made that the power converter is actuated by a power generated from the motor M, the MCU 15 performs a protective operation.
