Power conversion system with transient event ride-through capability and method thereof

A power conversion system is disclosed including a DC bus for receiving DC power; a line side converter electrically coupled to the DC bus for converting the DC power to AC power; and a voltage source controller to provide control signals to enable the line side converter to regulate the AC power. The voltage source controller comprises a signal generator to generate the control signals based at least in part on a power command signal and a power feedback signal. The voltage source controller further comprises a current limiter to, during a transient event, limit the control signals based at least in part on an electrical current threshold. The voltage source controller further comprises a voltage limiter to, during the transient event, limit the control signals based at least in part on a DC bus voltage feedback signal and a DC boundary voltage threshold.
