Abstract :
The paper describes construction and the principles of activity, attributes and potential of 3-phase Z-type inverters. The paper focuses on the basic system and suggested 3-level system of a NPC type Z-inverter, which was elaborated by authors. Simplified theoretical analysis of both systems has been verified by detailed simulation research. In the last section of the article, the possibility to build multilevel Z-inverters based on diode clamped typology is presented.
