Synchronization

• Why?
• To correctly provide supplemental power to AMPS,
  our AC signal must be in phase with the system
• If they are out of phase, it will alter the
  3-phase voltage lines on AMPS

7
Synchronization

• How?
• Phase-Lock Loop
• Fast Response
• Will accurately correct any error
• Zero-Point Crossings
• Frequency of the line
• Timings
