Voltage sag is a serious power quality problem affecting domestic, industrial and commercial customers. Voltage sags may either decrease or increase in the magnitude of system voltage due to faults or change in loads. In this paper a switch mode AC BuckBoost regulator is proposed to maintain voltage across a medium size domestic appliance constant during long period of voltage deviation from th...

The Electrical power system contains a wide range of electrical and power electronics components in industrial and commercial applications. The power quality will be affected by various factors like ripples contamination, voltage sag and voltage swells due to the increase in loads of non-linear type like large power electronics converters such as IGBT and GTO, rectifiers, voltage and current gl...

With the development of critical loads, power quality problem has become particularly important and poor power quality will be cause many adverse effects and the cost of many deaths will follow. To improve power quality and protection of sensitive loads against grid disturbances have been used new equipment based on power electronics similar FACTs devices, they are Custom Power. One of the most...

Voltage sags originating in ac supply systems can cause nuisance tripping of variable speed drives (VSDs) resulting in production loss and restarting delays. In ac VSDs having an uncontrolled rectifier front-end, the effects of voltage sags on the dc link causing dc under-voltage or ac overcurrent faults initiate the tripping. This paper suggests modifications in the control algorithm in order ...

Voltage sags are the most common power quality disturbance usually associated with power system faults, which can cause huge economic loss, making it the focus of emerging research. The proposed voltage sag detection technique for a single-line-to-ground (SLG) fault is presented using the PMU measurement data for improving the power quality. Various voltage sag detection techniques have been di...

Voltage sag is one of the crucial problems of power quality that affects high power devices. It may cause sensitive devices to malfunction and may increase the failure in power systems. An appropriate algorithm for identifying and positioning the voltage sag disorder is suggested in this study. This procedure identifies the voltage sag online and automatically and can identify the exact time an...
