Abstract This paper describes the performance comparison results for current controller of a single-phase PFC converter with 1-switch voltage doubler strategy for single-phase double-conversion UPS(Uninterruptible Power Supply). A single-phase PFC converter with 1-switch voltage doubler strategy needs a diode bridge and one bidirectional active switch. Thus it is possible to reduce the material cost. However, the study results of current controller design and comparison of current control method has not been known after the converter circuit was proposed. For the performance comparison of current control, single-phase 3 kVA double-conversion UPS was tested. The performance of PI and PR current cotnroller is experimentally confirmed with followings - input current reference tracking, input power factor correction and input current THD suppression.
