Abstract :
Medium voltage dc distribution systems are presently of interest for future naval warships. In order to provide hardware validation for research associated with the development of these systems, the Purdue Reduced-Scale Naval DC Microgrid has been constructed. This paper documents the system being constructed and provides some initial test results.
