The static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) is one type of FACTS devices which resembles in many respects a rotating synchronous condenser used for voltage control and reactive power compensation. The STATCOM can increase transmission capacity, damping low frequency oscillation, and improving voltage stability. This paper presents a control block diagram of STATCOM for the voltage stability im...

The effect of the static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) on distance protection a high-voltage transmission line is studied in this article. To carry out research stated topic paper, an experimental scheme was developed, equipment selected, operation settings 3 stages were calculated and quad characteristics built their basis. All listed above, as well further experiments, carried by real tim...

A high-power low-distortion static var compensator based on a synchronous link converter has been proposed, where the harmonics are eliminated by incorporating a low-power insulated-gate-bipolar-transistor-based controlled current auxiliary converter in conjunction with a high-power gate-turn-off-thyristor-based converter. In this paper, a new load compensator based on this topology is proposed...

In this paper, a novel method is developed for designing the output feedback controller for Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC). In the proposed method, the problem of selecting the output feedback gains for the SSSC controllers is changed into an optimization problem with a time domain-based objective function.Then, it is solved by using the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm...

— This paper summarizes the main problems and solutions of power quality in Microgrids, distributed energy storage systems, and AC/DC hybrid Microgrids. First, power quality enhancement of grid-interactive Microgrids is presented. Then, cooperative control for enhance voltage harmonics and unbalances in Microgrids is reviewed. After, the use of static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) in grid-c...

With the growing penetration of distributed energy resources (DER), accompanying challenges have led utilities to limit hosting capacities DER installations on distribution feeders. A static synchronous compensator (DSTATCOM) is a power electronic device provide dynamic injections and absorption reactive into grid with more flexible reliable voltage control quality improvement. management syste...

Distribution Static Compensator (DSTATCOM) is a custom Power gadget utilized for power quality change within dissemination framework. The control procedures connected to the DSTATCOM assume a real part in its execution. Throughout the previous three decades, a substantial scale mix of circulated era (DG) is starting to change the electrical circulation system from detached to dynamic. Thus, spe...

Received Mar 2, 2014 Revised Jul 10, 2014 Accepted Jul 3, 2014 Modern Power Transmission networks are becoming increasingly stressed due to growing demand and restrictions on building new lines. Losing stability is one of the major threat of such a stressed system following a disturbance. Flexible ac transmission system (FACTS) devices are found to be very effective in a transmission network fo...
