The power conditioner is an apparatus for oy converting power which 1s generated so as to be capable of - . being used as commercial power when utilizing the solar cell z or the fuelcell. The power conditioner supplies surplus power to the commercial power source system if power which is generated is greater than required power of the AC load, and, in contrast, receives, a power shortage from the commercial power source systemif powerwhichisgeneratedinthedispersed - power source is lesser than required power of the AC load. 30° The power conditioner compensates only power which is consumed anddoes not supply power tothe commercial power source system. . Since the power conditioner is connected to the _ B commercial power source system and capable of supplying power = which is generated in the dispersed power source to the - commercial power source system, power 1s supplied from the — side of thedispersedpower source tothe side of the commercial - power source system, if the power conditioner does not rapidly detect power failure when the power failure occurs in the : commercial power source system due to accident or a construction. a ’ Thus, the power conditioner has an independent | o operation detection apparatus for detecting that the e dispersed power source is operated independently when the power failure occurs in the commercial power source system. | on

The reactive power injection unit 110 injects the = reactive power toward the commercial power source system 30 (step S100). The injection of the reactive power is performed N as the following procedure. First, a difference between a moving average of the power change periods, for example, | - between 80 msec before 200 msec and a moving average of the : - power change periods from present time to 40 msec detected & in the power change period detection unit 120 is obtained. 0

In contrast, if even one of the deviations which are compared is not greater than the threshold (step $250-2: NO), it is determined that the dispersed power source 20 is not the independent operation and the connection of the : _ 15 — .
Fo} interconnecting relay 16 is maintained (step $250-4). os
If the deviation diffTa(N) and the deviation oh diffTb(N) are negative, the active independent operation : determination unit 165 takes out p deviations before the - present time fromthe deviation storage unit 160, and compares " the p deviations which are taken out to the thresholds stored - in the threshold storage unit 155 (step S260-1). .
Specifically, as illustrated in FIG. 8, the active independent operation determination unit 165 takes out, for si the Ta system, diffTa(N), diffTa(N-1), diffTa(N-2), oo diffTa(N-3) anddiffTa (N-4), and, for the Tb system, diffTb(N), diffTb (N-1), diffTb(N-2), diffTb(N-3) and diffTb(N-4), respectively, from the deviation storage unit 160. & . Next, the active independent operation - determination unit 165 takes out thresholds of the negative - pattern as illustrated in FIG. 9, Thn(N), Thn(N-1), Thn (N-2), =
Thn(N-3) and Thn(N-4), which are stored in the threshold storageunit 155, and compares themtodiffTa(N), diffTa(N-1), 5 © diffTa(N-2), diffTa(N-3) and diffTa(N-4), and, diffTb(N), 7 diffTb(N-1), diffTb(N-2), diffTb(N-3).and diffTb(N-4) which . ~ are taken out from the deviation storage unit 160. | —
Specifically, for the Ta system, a magnitude . w relation is compared between the threshold Thn (N) and the’ = deviation diffTa(N), and a magnitude relation is compared between the threshold Thn (N-1) and the deviation diffTa (N-1). ‘Similarly, a magnitude relation is compared between the : threshold Thn(N-2) and the deviation diffTa (N-2), between "the threshold Thn(N-3) and the deviation diffTa(N-3), and between the threshold Thn (N-4) and the deviation diffTa (N-4).
Furthermore, for the Tb system, a magnitude oo relation is compared between the threshold Thn(N) and the deviation diffTb(N), and a magnitude relation is compared : i between the threshold Thn (N-1) and the deviation diffTb (N-1) . Ny
Similarly, a magnitude relation is compared between the +i threshold Thn(N-2) and the deviation diffTb(N-2), between the threshold Thn(N-3) and the deviation diffTb(N-3), and - between the threshold Thn (N-4) and the deviation diffTh (N-4) . Fe
The active independent operation determination i. unit 165 determines whether or not each of all deviations z which are compared is smaller than each of thresholds corresponding thereto, respectively, (step 5260-2). is
If all deviations which are compared are smaller - than the thresholds (step $260-2: YES), the active independent da operation determination unit 165 determines that power B failure occurs in the commercial power source system 30 and = i} the dispersed power source 20 is the independent operation i so that the interconnecting relay 16 is cut of f and the ™ commercial power source system 30 is blocked. Further, agate = of the DC/AC inverter 14 (see FIG. 1) is blocked. That is, = a switching signal is not applied to the gate of the inverter = 14 (step S260-3). In contrast, if even one of the deviations. wo which are compared is not smaller than the threshold (step - 5260-2: NO), it is determined that the dispersed power source 20 is not the independent operation and the connection of © theinterconnectingrelayléismaintained.

As described above, in the active detection function, the reactive power is forcedly injected in the commercial power source system 30 and the power failure of the commercial power source system 30 is detected, and the independent operation of the dispersed power source 20 is detected by fluctuation of voltage change of the commercial power source by the injection of the reactive power. | :

FIG. 7 1s an operation flowchart of the average i power change period calculation unit 130, the power change . period prediction unit 140, the frequency change rate o calculation unit 170 and the passive independent operation Ee determination unit 180.
The average power change period calculation unit - 130 calculates an average period of g power change periods o. before the present time (step S300). In the embodiment, q a is twenty five. The average power change period calculation o unit 130 takes out the power change periods of the Ta system MT and the power change periods of the Tb system which are stored in the power change period storage unit 125, separately. >
Specifically, as illustrated in FIG. 10, for the Ta system, - data of power change periods of twenty five times from present - time, Ta (N), Ta(N-1), .., Ta (N-23) and Ta (N-24) are taken out. -
At the same time, for the Tb system, twenty five power change = : periods of Tb (N), Tb(N-1),.., Tb (N-23) and Tb (N-24) are taken Co oo out. . ow
Next, the average power change period calculation - unit 130 calculates an average Taave of the power change periods | or of the Ta system by calculating | w [Ta (N)+Ta (N-1)+.+Ta (N-23)+Ta(N-24)]/25 for the Ta system. oT
At the same time, the average power change period calculation - unit 130 calculates anaverage Thave of the power change periods + of the Tb system by calculating - [Tb (N)+Tb (N=1)+..+Tb (N-23) +Tb (N-24) ] /25 for the Tb system.
The power change period prediction unit 140 calculates the predicted period from q power change periods before the present time (step S310). The calculation of the predicted period is the same as step S210 of FIG. 4 except that only the number of power change periods is different.
: The frequency change rate calculation unit 170 " calculates the frequency change rate from the average period : and the predicted period (step $320). The frequency change jy rate is obtained with respect to the Ta system and the Tb ~ system, respectively. The frequency change rate of the Ta system is calculated by computing the frequency change rate
A=(the average period-the predicted period)/the average - : period. The frequency change rate B of the Tb system is | - calculated in the same manner. | ak | The passive independent operation determination 8 unit 180 compares each of the frequency change rate A and @ the frequency change rate B of the Ta system and the Tb system which are calculated in the frequency change rate calculation on unit 170 to the threshold stored in the threshold storage —- unit 155 (step $330). The threshold storage unit 155 stores a plurality of thresholds of 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4% and 0.5%. The pi threshold which is used in the comparison is selected by a i, selection switch. In the embodiment, 0.3% is selected. =
Therefore, each of the frequency change rate Aand the frequency HL change rate B of the Ta system and the Tb system is compared - with the threshold in terms of whether or not each of them ~ oo is greater than 0.3%. :
If each of the frequency change rate A and the - frequency change rate B is greater than 0.3% of the threshold (step S330: YES), the passive independent operation © determination unit 180 proceeds the processing to the next step. The fact that the frequency change rate is large means possibility of the power failure inthe commercial power source system 30 ishigh. Incontrast, if eachof the frequency change rate A and the frequency change rate B is not greater than 0.3% of the threshold (step S330: NO), it is determined that there is no independent operation and then the gate of the
DC/AC inverter 14 (see FIG. 1) is not blocked and is switched 8 as usual (step S360). +
TT ~ If each of the thresholds of the frequency change no rate A and the frequency change rate B is greater than 0.3% Ve of the threshold (step S330: YES), the passive independent - operation determination unit 180 determines whether or not - the frequency change rate A and the frequency change rate -
B reach r times stored in the threshold storage unit 155 while - maintaining the same change direction (a positive or negative 5 sign) of the frequency change rate A and the frequency change o rate B (step S340). If the frequency change rate A and the 4 frequency change rate B, which exceed the threshold and have on the same change direction, continue in r times (step $340:
YES), it is determined that the power failure occurs in the commercial power source system 30 and the dispersed power oO source 20 is the independent operation so that the - interconnecting relay 16 is cut off and the commercial power Ea ~~ source system 30 is blocked. Further, the gate of the DC/AC = inverter 14 (see FIG. 1) is blocked. That is, the switching - signal is not applied to the gate of the inverter 14 (step Pe? .S350). In contrast, if the frequency change rate A and the = frequency change rate B, which exceed the threshold and have o the same change direction, do not continue in r times, it " is determined that the dispersed power source 20 is the independent operation and the connection of the being ) interconnected relay 16 is maintained. Further, the gate of the DC/AC inverter 14 (see FIG. 1) isnotblockedand is switched as usual (step S360). A reason for ensuring whether the frequency change rate exceeding the threshold exceeds the certain number of times is to remove noise and to prevent determination of uncertain independent operation. However, if a plurality of the number of times is set, the detection timing of the independent operation is late. Therefore, the ol number of times stored in the threshold storage unit 155 is & set to be the number of times which satisfies the reliability n of the detection and the speed of the detection. o
As described above, in order to detect the + independent operation, the frequency of the commercial power o source system 1s measured and the frequency change of the - very short time is detected. It is determined that whether o. the previous frequency is in an increasing trend or in a. oo decreasing trend and it is determined that there is the oo 9 .. independent operation when the frequency is in the increasing oy trend or the decreasing trend by comparing the average of theprevious frequency change tothe latest average. However, - : in the invention described above, the independent operation - is determined by comparing the average of the previous - frequency change to the future frequency change after one - cycle. Therefore, the detection time of the independent o operation is shortened. Further, since the independent = operation is detected by comparing the deviation of the HL frequency to the threshold, detection accuracy of the independent operation is improved. -Furthermore, since the ~ independent operation is detected by using two functions of > ~~ the active detection function and the passive detection ~ function, it is possible to reliably perform the detection - of the independent operation.
