In this paper, the modelling of a three-phase photovoltaic system, for analyzing voltage variation in a radial distribution system, is presented. The radial distribution system is represented by a benchmark which is widely used in the analysis of distribution systems with distributed generation, and electrical microgrids. The parameters estimation of this model is performed by selecting the aerial distribution of conductors and then calculating the sequence components. Moreover, a model of a three-phase photovoltaic generation system for analyzing voltage variations is proposed. The model represents an array of photovoltaic panels, a dc/dc converter with its control system, and a three-phase inverter. The software MATLAB/Simulink is chosen to simulate both the distribution and the photovoltaic systems. All the components of the three-phase photovoltaic system are parametrized with information of commercial equipment. To facilitate the implementation of the system model in the analysis program, reduced models of its components are selected. Finally, the proposed model of the three-phase photovoltaic system is validated by simulating single-phase faults along the feeder and changes of irradiance over the photovoltaic generators and observing the voltage behavior in one node of the distribution system. The results show that irradiance changes and single-phase faults affect the voltage behavior depending on the photovoltaic penetration level and the generators location.
