    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for power conversion to, from, and/or between different power buses. The power conversion may be from a power source to a power bus, from a power bus to a power source, between a first power bus and a second power bus, etc. The power conversion may be from a DC power source and/or an AC power source to a DC bus and/or an AC bus. The power conversion may be from a DC bus and/or an AC bus to a DC power source that may be chargeable and/or configured to receive power. The power conversion may be from a DC bus to an AC bus, from an AC bus to a DC bus, from a first DC bus to a second DC bus, from a first AC bus to a second AC bus, etc. One or more of the buses may be for backup loads.

    Abstract: A single-phase power converter is disclosed for converting a direct current power source to an alternating current power across first and second output terminals, which may be connected to a split-phase system having a first-phase load connected between one phase and a second-phase load connected between the other phase. When the loads are not balanced, the single-phase power converter provides a differential current to compensate for the imbalance.

    Abstract: A photovoltaic power generation system, having a photovoltaic panel, which has a direct current (DC) output and a micro-inverter with input terminals and output terminals. The input terminals are adapted for connection to the DC output. The micro-inverter is configured for converting an input DC power received at the input terminals to an output alternating current (AC) power at the output terminals. A bypass current path between the output terminals may be adapted for passing current produced externally to the micro-inverter. The micro-inverter is configured to output an alternating current voltage significantly less than a grid voltage.

    Abstract: A method may include: applying a first voltage on at least one first terminal of a first direct current (DC) bus electrically connected to a power source, obtaining at least one indication that discharge of a second voltage related to the first voltage should be performed, and discharging the second voltage by electrically connecting at least one second terminal of a second DC bus to a ground in response to the at least one indication. Another method may include: injecting a current at least one terminal of a direct current (DC) bus that is electrically connected to a power source, simultaneous to injecting the current, measuring an insulation relative to ground, obtaining an electrical parameter related to the power source, and, in response to the electrical parameter, maintaining the current injected at the terminal of the DC bus without ceasing the measuring of the insulation relative to a ground.
