A power generation system for feeding electrical power from a generation unit into a three-phase grid via three AC terminals is disclosed. The system includes a relay arrangement for disconnecting the system from the grid having at least three relays. Each of the three relays includes a control coil and two switching contacts operated by the corresponding control coil. Each of the AC terminals is connectable to the grid via a first and a second switching contact, each of which is assigned to a different one of the relays. Further disclosed are a relay arrangement and an inverter with a relay arrangement.

Power generation system and inverter for feeding power into a three-phase grid

In order to distribute power over multiple direct current sources which are connected in parallel to an input-side direct voltage intermediate circuit of a DC/AC transformer, at least one of which direct current sources is connected to the direct voltage intermediate circuit via a DC/DC transformer, wherein the DC/DC transformer can be actuated to change the power fed into the direct voltage intermediate circuit by the direct current source, the power levels of the direct current sources are decreased differently in a decreased operating mode of the DC/AC transformer in which the power of the DC/AC transformer is decreased compared to the sum of the maximum power levels available from all the direct current sources, and by actuating at least the one DC/DC transformer via which the at least one direct current source is connected to the direct voltage intermediate circuit, variation in the power levels of at least one other direct current source is compensated dynamically.
