14. 14 Clemson University Electric Power Research Association Conclusions The waveform of the fault current and voltage become worse because of the induction machine. PV generated the harmonics into system, so some filters are needed. During the fault, DG should be tripped before the fault is cleared. The accurate operation and smart control of DG and loads can damp the oscillation and make the system stable.
