Regenerative 4-Quadrant AC Grid Simulator

The IT7900 series represent the newest generation of programmable, full four-quadrant grid simulators with full 100% of current rating in both source and sink mode, and provides energy recovery capability. The power generated by the DUT during the test can be easily fed back to the AC grid, rather than being dissipated as heat,which protects the environment and lowers the cost of operation.It can be applied to the applications in testing grid-tied products that inject energy into the grid, such as the frequency changes, voltage transients and DC injection of grid-tied/off-grid inverters testing.
