Since the fault dynamic of droop-controlled inverter is different from synchronous generators(SGs),protection de-vices may become invalid,and the fault overcurrent may damage power electronic devices and threaten the safety of the microgrid.Therefore,it is imperative to conduct a comprehensive fault analysis of the inverter to guide the design of protection schemes.However,due to the complexity of droop control strategy,existing literatures have simplified asymmetric fault analysis of droop-controlled inverters to varying degrees.Therefore,accurate fault analysis of a droop-controlled inverter is needed.In this paper,by analyzing the control system,an accurate fault model is established.Based on this,a calculation method for instantaneous asymmetrical fault current is proposed.In addition,the current components and current characteristics are analyzed.It was determined that fault currents are affected by control loops,fault types,fault distance and nonlinear limiters.In particular,the influences of limiters on the fault model,fault current calculation and fault current characteristics were analyzed.Through detailed analysis,it was found that dynamics of the control loop cannot be ignored,the fault type and fault distance determine fault current level,and part of the limiters will totally change the fault current trend.Finally,calculation and experimental results verify the correctness of the proposed method.
