Abstract
To evaluate the relevant parameters for the study, such as the power factor and the total harmonic distortion in the current (THDi) and voltage (THDv), we use Microinverters, all of them connected to the grid. The objective of this work is to verify the effects of the operation in the connection of the photovoltaic system to the distribution network in RMS voltage, RMS current, balancing in a three-phase star form; as well as identifying the power quality parameters for injection into the grid. The system under study has an installed power of 2 kWp. Measured on the boards present an imbalance in their phases as a result of the photovoltaic sources, which produces an increase in current through the neutral conductor and therefore it is advisable to balance the phases in terms of the power supplies. The results of June 24, 2021, with a frequency of 60 Hz for maximum RMS values in phases A (microinverters), were 9.30 A and, for the voltages, they were 302.50 V, respectively. The active and reactive powers are 1380 W, 241 Var phase A (microinverters). In the percentage values of the harmonic current, they increase when the solar irradiance decreases, we have as the most critical with irradiance close to 0 W/m2 with 99.94% THDi, On the contrary, it can also be observed that reaching an irradiance of 1200 W/m2 the THDi in the currents of the three phases decreases.

applied research and technological development project winner of the competitive funds financed by the FONDECYT-World Bank, with Contract No. 180-2018-FONDECYT-BM-IADT-AV, with the title: “Design and Validation of the Operation and Monitoring of Photovoltaic Systems Connected to the Network (SFCRs) in Extreme Conditions of the Altiplano over 3800 masl”. The expected research results will be used as criteria for the use and evaluation of these systems in the city of Juliaca. The impact caused by the photovoltaic insertion in the system’s distribution of electricity in the world and South America [2], especially in Brazil about everything after the National Electric Energy Agency (ANEEL) published Normative Resolution No. 482/2012 [2], which establishes conditions for access to distributed micro and mini generation, in addition to major investments in research and technology in the sector [3]. However, this significant increase in grid-connected photovoltaic systems can bring some difficulties for distribution concessionaires, especially concerning the quality of the energy delivered by this type of system [4]. The article is structured in sections, as Sect. 2 discusses the concept of energy quality and indicators evaluated in this study. Then, Sect. 3 presents the work methodology, detailing the procedures for data acquisition. Section 4 presents and discusses the results found, and finally, in Sect. 5, the conclusions that were presented in this studio.
