Five-level inverters are widely used in the fields of energy storage and electric drive systems, especially in the high-voltage and high-power applications. As the power level increases, the capacity of one single inverter unit cannot meet the demand. Therefore, inverters need to be operated in parallel. Compared with the two-level or three-level topology, the circulating current between single-phase modules of parallel five-level inverters is more prominent due to the existence of floating capacitors. An improved current balance open-loop control method for a public DC bus structure is proposed. With a comparison of output current from each power module, a time stamp is set and the time shift control for vector switching is implemented, so that a positive or negative unbalanced current is artificially introduced to quickly eliminate the original circulating current. A set of 6 kV parallel high-voltage inverters were tested, and experimental results validated the effectiveness of the proposed method and the impact of voltage difference of the floating capacitor on the circulating current. The correction process only took 0.1 ms, and the current balance can be quickly and accurately completed.
