The document discusses a flexible test bed being developed at the Electric Ship Research and Development Consortium (ESRDC) to validate medium-voltage direct current (MVDC) and high-frequency alternating current (HFAC) power system architectures through modeling, simulation, and experimentation. Current experimental activities involve conducting and modeling ac and dc series fault tests. Planned experimental activities will explore dc grid stability with multiple power sources and loads, as well as "smart" microgrid control systems. The test bed utilizes various power supply, converter, and load components rated from 250kW to 4MW to conduct experiments at significant power levels.
