This paper presents the designing of a power quality compensator to solve the power quality problem of negative-sequence and harmonic currents in high-speed railway traction systems. The proposed power quality compensator is constituted by railway static power conditioner (RPC), two thyristor-controlled reactors and two thyristor-controlled 3filters. The RPC contains two converters which are co...

Problem statement: Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) and Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC) have been individually applied to improve stability of power system. Approach: This study presents the coordination of a STATCOM and SSSC for improving power system stability. The swing curves of the three phase faulted power system with various cases are tested and compared. Results: Th...
