The medium frequency transformer (MFT)
provides galvanic isolation and, some cases, a
high voltage conversion ratio from medium voltage
(MV) low voltage (LV). Here, the first power
electronics stage converts the medium-voltage
input (AC DC) into medium frequency AC
signal. Devices.
This broad range capabilities makes SSTs key
tool for enabling future grids where efficient and
controllable power flow will required [42]. Many SST designs allow control
of power and voltage (and, for networks,
frequency, reactive power and power quality).2.35

Solid state transformers (SSTs), also known as
electronic power transformers power electronic
transformers, are voltage conversion devices
