Methods for measuring capacitance of solar inverters

Spiceguy -

This page shows how to measure input capacitance on an inverter, first using AC Analysis frequency response and then again using transient analysis for comparison.

PowerPoint Presentation

The AC output filter is a low pass filter (LPF) that blocks high frequency PWM currents generated by the inverter. Three phase inductors and capacitors form the low pass filters.
