Abstract

Background: Over the past few years, there has been a noticeable increase in demand for high-performance power converters that include fault correction as well as precise tracking. Purpose: The goal of this study is to look at the impact of a modular multilayer converter (MMC) on fault correction utilizing data from an arm current sensor as a source of information. The Multi-Material Converter (MMC) provides its customers with a number of benefits, such as the ability to handle high voltage or power, enhanced management, and decreased harmonic distortion. The purpose of this research is to get a better knowledge of the function that MMCs play in improving the accuracy of arm current sensor readings by performing an inquiry into the practicability of employing MMCs for fault compensation while giving data on the influence that these components have. Methodology: The research has mainly driven its data from secondary sources with practical experiments for its validation. Conclusion: The testing results show that the MMC is successful in reducing the number of mistakes and enhancing the overall performance of power converters.
