This paper presents two new single-phase crowbar protection topologies, for doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) based wind turbines. These crowbar topologies, can be suitable for fulfilling the low voltage ride through (LVRT) requirements demanded by the grid codes, in next generation of high-power DFIG-based wind turbines, allowing the possibility to use simpler and more cost effective crowbar...
