I. INTRODUCTION
Photovoltaic (PV) power supplied to the utility grid is gaining
more and more development, while the worlds power demand
is increasing . Not many PV systems have so far been placed
into the grid due to the relatively high cost, compared with more

use of highly reliable capacitor (see Fig. 3). Even though the
CSI has integrated boost functionality and therefore does not
require an additional component for voltage boosting. But for
increasing its efficiency additional components mainly SPEIC
converter is used in this paper . In summary the CSI offers high
reliability at almost the same efficiency as compared to that of
voltage source based solar inverter. The proposed inverter can
be modulated with the space vector pulse width modulation
(SVPWM) technique which can be used for several PV
application.

VII. CONCLUSION
By the use of the Current Source Inverter(CSI) the
reliability is improved and it is greater when compared to
voltage source inverter. The maximum power to the inverter can
be tracked by using Maximum Power Point Tracker(MPPT)
control. The output from controller can be boosted to a constant
non inverted polarity level by using SPEIC converter ad it is fed
to CSI. But the use of the conventional current source inverter
induces ground leakage current which must be within the range
of 300 mA. Hence modified current source inverter is proposed
where the ground leakage current can be minimized by addition
of the fourth leg which is connected to the neutral, common
mode inductor, split DC link capacitor ,SVPWM technique can
be used . This can be achieved by,
1) Common mode inductor is used and it offers high
impedance to the leakage current and this ground
current is therefore minimized.
2) Since by connecting grid neutral point to the split
capacitor eliminates the high frequency harmonic
component from (CM) voltage and this arrangement
restricts the flow of the current through the circuit.
3) Introduction of the fourth leg restricts the flow of the
undesirable ground leakage current between the neutral
and any phase in the zero state.
