Why do PV inverters fail?

Some authors discuss inverter failures due to the issues of reactive power control. The PV inverters operate at unity power factor, but as per the new grid requirements, the PV inverters must operate at non unity power factor by absorbing or supplying reactive power to control the grid voltage and frequency.

Do PV inverters affect grid power quality?

As an inverter-interfaced distributed generation (IIDG), PV system can cause additional impacts when compared to other traditional DGs. For example, due to the pulse width modulation (PWM) switching process, PV inverters may damage the grid power quality by injecting harmonic content and direct current (Chen et al. 2018; Hu et al. 2015).

Do grid-connected PV inverters have a fault condition?
