Abstract
An apparatus for testing components for use in a power system includes at least one power amplifier circuit configured to be coupled to the component and a control circuit configured to operate the power amplifier circuit responsive to at least one state of a component emulator for the component included in a system emulator for the power system. The component emulator may include at least one power electronics converter circuit and the control circuit may be configured to control at least one of a voltage and a current of the at least one power amplifier circuit responsive to at least one of a voltage and a current of the at least one power electronics converter circuit. The control circuit may be further configured to control the component emulator responsive to at least one state of the at least one power amplifier circuit.
