Modern power grids must be highly reliable and provide power with a high quality. Power quality issues like voltage sags or current harmonics must be minimized, in order to achieve high levels of reliability in the system. One possible way to overcome such problems is through the utilization of active power filters like a Unified Power Quality Conditioner (UPQC). On the other hand, Superconduct...

The widespread use of Power Electronics based equipment has produced a significant impact on quality of electric power supply. Conventional power quality mitigation equipment is providing to be inadequate for an increasing number of applications.

Aiming at the micro-grid deteriorating the distributed network power quality for its features like voltage fluctuation and intermittent, unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) is the most effective device for power quality treatment. The voltage sag detection of UPQC based on PI with RBF (Radial Basis Function) neural network controller is put forward in the paper. The UPQC topology which inc...

This paper introduces a new concept of optimal utilization of a unified power quality conditioner (UPQC). The series inverter of UPQC is controlled to perform simultaneous 1) voltage sag/swell compensation and 2) load reactive power sharing with the shunt inverter. The active power control approach is used to compensate voltage sag/swell and is integrated with theory of power angle control (PAC...

The current power sector is dealing with the poor power quality issues and the reason behind this poor power quality is voltage fluctuations, harmonics, transients and reactive power demands and these problems arises due to changing trend of our demand. Nowadays in our demand the share of power from power electronic devices has increase a lot and also coupling of grids to wind farms and solar f...

Power quality is one of major concerns in the present area. It has become important, especially, with the introduction of sophisticated devices, whose performance is very sensitive to the quality of power supply that results in a failure of end use equipment’s. One of the major problems dealt here is the voltage sag. To solve this problem, custom power devices are used. One of those devices is ...
