  • Abstract
    The paper focuses on the design of a power interface for connecting a small power wind turbine to a three phase power plant. The proposed technique, which employs a current feed converter for feeding the utility grid through an unidirectional full bridge inverter, may be considered an alternative to a traditional voltage feed inverters.
