Abstract :
This paper presents a compact low-cost modular laboratory setup based on three-phase voltage source inverters for use in microgrid teaching. Such setups are important to give students practical knowledge in addition to theory and simulations. Often, laboratory setups are built with high voltage and/or current where supervision is required during lab exercises. This setup enables students performing microgrid experiments with safe voltage and current levels, where the modular setup enables easy replacement for faulty converters. A prototype converter has been built to verify the setup with experiments.
