Voltage sag/swell is one of the most frequently power quality problems which affects the power systems with sensitive loads. The unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) is capable of mitigating the effect of voltage sag/swell at the load or point of common coupling (PCC). In this paper, a new control of UPQC is proposed based on combining the sag detection and voltage injection established on ...

Abstract – This paper describes a novel structure for single phase Unified Power Quality Conditioner-Distributed Generation (UPQC-DG) with direct grid connected DC-AC converter for low DC output DG systems which can be used not only for compensation of power quality problems but also for supplying of load power partly. This converter has been composed of one full-bridge inverter, one three wind...

This project presents a power quality improvement of unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) to compensate current and voltage quality problems of sensitive loads. The UPQC consists of the series and shunt converter having a common dc link. The series converter mitigates voltage sag from the supply side and shunt converter eliminates current harmonics from the nonlimear load side. The develope...

This paper explains a new proposal for the placement, integration, and control of unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) in distributed generation (DG)-based grid connected/autonomous micro grid/micro generation (μG) system has been presented here along with fuzzy logic controller. Here we using fuzzy logic controller instead of using other controllers. The DG converters (with storage) and th...

For the power quality improvement of the system FACTS devices like static synchronous compensator (STATCOM), static synchronous series compensator(SSSC), interline power flow controller (IPFC), and unified power flow controller (UPFC) etc. are introduced. These devices are used for the transmission system. But now a day’s these FACTS devices are used for distribution system and called as custom...

This paper concentrates on compensating the power quality issues which have been increased in day-to-day life due to enormous usage of loads with electronic control. One such solution is devices like Pension Protection Fund (PPF), Active filter (APF), hybrid (HPF), etc., are used overcome Power Quality (PQ) issues. The proposed method here an active compensator called unified conditioner (UPQC)...

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 ...

This paper proposes a fuzzy logic based new control scheme for the Unified Power Quality Conditioner (UPQC) for minimizing the voltage sag and total harmonic distortion in the distribution system consequently to improve the power quality. UPQC is a recent power electronic module which guarantees better power quality mitigation as it has both series-active and shunt-active power filters (APFs). ...

This paper proposes a neuron adaptive harmonic detection algorithm which can adaptively,rapidly and precisely calculate the voltage and current reference signals in presence of the system frequency variation, according to which, a Double Integration Control (DIC) strategy is applied in Unified Power Quality Conditioner (UPQC) as an interface between the hybrid power system and the load.Generall...
