The instantaneous response of the distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM) is very important while compensating rapidly varying balanced, unbalanced and nonlinear loads. Any change in the load affects the dc-link voltage directly. The proper operation of DSTATCOM requires variation of the dc-link voltage within the prescribed limits. Conventionally, a proportional-integral (PI) controller is ...

This paper presents a comprehensive survey on the mitigation of power quality problems such as low power factor, shortage of reactive power, poor voltage, voltage and current harmonics due to sudden change in field excitation of synchronous alternator, sudden increased in load, sudden fault occur in the system are solved by FACTS controllers such as STATCOM, DSTATCOM, and DSTATCOM. This paper a...

In this paper, a new three-phase four-wire distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM) based on a T-connected transformer and a three-leg voltage source converter (VSC) is proposed for power quality improvement. The T-connected transformer connection mitigates the neutral current and the three-leg VSC compensates harmonic current, reactive power, and balances the load. Two single-phase transform...

The project deals with Minimum VA rating handled by a Unified Power Quality Conditioner, which consists of Series and Shunt Active Power Filter. The Series Active Filter is Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR), which regulates the voltage at the point of common coupling with minimum VA loading. The Shunt Active Filter is Distribution Static Compensator (DSTATCOM) which compensates the reactive power ...

<span lang="EN-US">In this research paper, an inductively coupled distributed static compensator (IC-DSTATCOM) for three phase wire (3P3W) electric power distribution system (EPDS) is proposed. The contraction of quality (PQ) was marked as a perilous droop mode bump into direct (DC-DSTATCOM). To regain the PQ, inductive coupling transformer assisted in conjunction with DC-DSTATCOM. equiva...

Green energy sources are implemented for the generation of power due to their substantial advantages. Wind is best among renewable options generation. Generally, wind system directly connected with network supplying power. In direct connection, there an issue managing quality (PQ) concerns such as voltage sag, swells, flickers, harmonics, etc. order enhance PQ in a conversion (WECS), peripheral...

In this paper, a single-phase Seven-Level and Five-Level cascaded H-Bridge Inverter (CHB) based Distribution Static Compensator (DSTATCOM) is presented. A simple control algorithm based on inverse park PLL was proposed for both five-level and seven-level inverters. Synchronous Reference Frame theory (SRF) as control algorithm is used for reference source current extraction and to generate gatin...

We propose a modular multilevel converter (MMC) based three-phase four-wire (3P4W) split capacitor distribution static synchronous compensator (DSTATCOM), aiming at compensating unbalanced and reactive load currents. Due to the zero-sequence current compensation, circulating characteristics of 3P4W MMC-DSTATCOM are different from conventional MMCs. Moreover, distinct working principle MMC would...

This paper presents an investigation of five-Level Cascaded H – bridge (CHB) Inverter as Distribution Static Compensator (DSTATCOM) in Power System (PS) for compensation of reactive power and harmonics. The advantages of CHB inverter are low harmonic distortion, reduced number of switches and suppression of switching losses.The DSTATCOM helps to improve the power factor and eliminate the Total ...

Proper location of DGs in power systems is important for obtaining their maximum potential benefits. This paper deals with DG for minimizing active power loss and D-statcom for reactive power loss minimization is considered. The proper siting of DG and D-statcom is a recently developed combination with the aim of reducing line loss in a radial distribution system. Loss Sensitivity Factor (LSF) ...
