During the operation of a three line ac link in parallel with a ac-dc-ac link system that employs Back-to-Back (B2B)Medium Voltage Modular Multilevel Converters (MMC), a path for the low frequency zero sequence currents is shown to exist. Apart from causing additional losses, these currents can result in limitations on power capacity. A detailed analysis on the influence of cell capacitance, arm inductance and link conductor length on the circulating zero sequence currents and the means to mitigate them through a simulated control strategy is investigated. The simulations show that the dc link employing B2B-MMC can successfully operate in parallel with ac link without transformer isolation by controlling the zero sequence currents.
