This paper deals with the modeling and simulation of Distribution Static Compensator (D-STATCOM) for voltage sag mitigation. The D-STATCOM simulation model consists of 12-pulse inverter, which is connected in shunt with the system. A generalized sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) technique was developed in the proposed controller for fast control action of the D-STATCOM. Simulations of th...

In this paper, by using the data of steel melting plant which contains major non-linear load i.e., induction furnace, we modeled such a system, which contains three 12-tons induction furnace in PSCAD software and simulated for three different operating conditions & studied harmonic pattern. Keywords—Induction Melting Furnace;Steel Melting Shop;Harmonics Analysis;Power Quality.

This paper, proposes a control system for use with microgrid consist of multiple small scale embedded generation networks (SSEG networks) connected to the 33kV distribution network. The proposed controller controls power flow in the gridconnected mode of operation, enables voltage and frequency control when the SSEG networks are islanded, and resynchronizes the SSEG networks with the utility be...

This paper presents a novel current transformer (CT) saturation detection approach based on Gaussian Mixture Models (GMMs). High accuracy is the advantage of this method. GMMs are trained with secondary current of CT. The appropriate performance of the proposed method is tested by simulation of different fault conditions in PSCAD/EMTDC software. The results show that the trained GMMs can succes...
