Recent trends in power system design and inclusion of renewable energy sources and smart grids are creating different subsystem interactions that require proper investigation, understanding, describing and estimating global system stability through impedance-admittance measurement and identification. This paper proposes and presents the cascaded H-bridge multi-level inverter topology for perturbation injection converter and impedance-admittance measurement. The methodology of impedance-admittance measurement is explained together with different measurement. Performance and suitability of this topology for impedance-admittance measurement is evaluated through simulations. As a main result of this study, the feasibility of injecting small-signal perturbations in the medium-voltage level system is shown.
