Purpose – The aim of this paper is to improve and adapt cascaded multilevel converters for electric vehicles (EVs) to have all the advantages of these converters and to eliminate its limitations in the use of EVs applications. Specifically, the purpose is to use only a single power source (battery pack, fuel cell, etc.) and generate a higher power-quality than regular multilevel converters. Des...

The introduction of series capacitors in transmission lines causes problems terms reliability and the security distance protection relays. As is widely used network, challenge applying it to compensated has been taken up by utilities relay manufacturers various ways. In field power system protection, developments are largely driven manufacturers, often not published academic literature; status ...

At any point of time, a power system operating condition should be stable, meeting various operational criteria and it should also be secure in the event of any credible contingency. Present day power systems are being operated closer to their stability limits due to economic and environmental constraints. Maintaining a stable and secure operation of a power system is therefore a very important...
