Grid code requirements for fault ride-through (FRT) capability significantly impact wind turbine converter design by necessitating over-sizing of components, advanced control strategies, and the implementation of protective measures to ensure the turbine remains connected to the grid during voltage dips. Fault ride-through capability refers to the ability of a wind turbine to remain connected to the grid during a voltage dip caused by a fault, such as a short circuit. Grid codes specify the minimum voltage level and duration for which a wind turbine must remain connected. Wind turbine converters are power electronic devices that convert the variable frequency AC power generated by the turbine into grid-frequency AC power. These converters are crucial for controlling the active and reactive power injected into the grid. The requirement to ride through faults fo....
