    Abstract: A precharge system for precharging a DC bus circuit includes a first input, first and second circuit branches, and a controller, where the first circuit branch includes a first contactor between the first input and an AC to DC converter, the second circuit branch has: a disconnect switch coupled to the first input; a variable frequency drive (VFD) with an AC input coupled to the disconnect switch; an inductor coupled to an AC output of the VFD; and a second contactor coupled to the inductor. The precharge VFD provides precise control of the precharge operation such as charging time, current limiting, short-circuit and ground fault protection, monitoring DC Bus capacitance and verifies the health of the shared DC bus circuit through startup diagnostic. The controller opens the first contactor and closes the second contactor and the disconnect switch in a first mode to precharge the DC bus circuit using the VFD, and in a second mode, the controller closes the first contactor and opens the second contactor and the disconnect switch.

    Abstract: A filter for reducing radiated emissions in switching power converters such as a motor drive is disclosed. The switching power converter modulates a DC voltage input to generate a desired AC voltage output. Capacitors are connected in parallel between each output phase and a common connection, which may be a ground connection. The magnitude and layout of the capacitors are selected to minimize current conducted by the capacitors. The capacitors may be surface mount technology located proximate to the switching devices or the capacitors may be incorporated in the circuit board on which the switching devices are mounted. The filter may be applied to any of the switching elements in a motor drive, such as the inverter section, an active rectifier section, or a switched mode power supply.

    Abstract: A method is provided for detection of a ground fault in a high resistance network in a voltage source power conversion circuit comprising a power converter that converts incoming AC power to DC power applied to a DC bus and an inverter that converts DC power from the DC bus to output AC power. The method includes detecting a midpoint-to-ground voltage between a low side of the DC bus and a ground potential and detecting the presence of a ground fault in a high resistance network based upon the detected midpoint-to-ground voltage.
