Abstract
Abstract—The ability of wind power park modules to control
their response to transmission network faults allows for
specification of new control features directed at stabilising the
power system response during and after disturbances. However,
the ‘effectiveness’ of these features in situations where wind
power park modules are connected to ‘weak’ systems needs
further clarification. The objective of the paper is to study the
response of wind power park modules in distribution systems
to transmission network faults during reverse power flows. The
focus lies on the ‘effectiveness’ of their fast voltage control. A
sensitivity analysis is performed to understand the differences
made by the pre-fault operating point, the wind power park
module’s fault and post-fault control modes and their settings,
and the load modelling. The results show that correct load
modelling is very important, the post-fault transmission system
voltage recovery is worsened during reverse power flows, and
that reactive current injection significantly affects the post-fault
voltage recovery. Certain grid connection requirements worsened
voltage recovery or even caused instability for some control
settings.
