Abstract

Embodiments of present disclosure relates to a modular interconnection device (MID) and an electrical network system. The MID comprises a modular port assembly, a node, a converter and a local controller. The modular port assembly is configured to transmit alternating current and/or direct current. The node is coupled to an AC source via a first switch and the modular port assembly. The first switch is configured to selectively disconnect the modular interconnection device from the AC source. The converter is coupled to the node via a second switch and coupled to a DC source via a third switch. The converter is configured to convert the AC current into DC current or convert DC current into AC current. The local controller is coupled to the first, second and third switches and configured to control operation of the first, second and third switches.
