N2 - Parallel-connected converters are used to increase power rating and improve reliability. This paper deals with a parallel-connected ac-dc-ac converter system which is used to drive a permanent magnet synchronous machine. The system model is discussed in the paper. In addition, the output of the converter system is connected through inductors. The inductors’ design requirements are also discussed in this paper. The design requirements are used as a starting point to design the output side inductor. The designed inductor is used to develop the experimental setup. The experimental results demonstrate equal current sharing by two parallel-connected converters.
