PERFORMANCE AND ANALYSIS OF FACTS CONTROLLER SVC AND SSSC USING MATLAB/SIMULINK
Mr. Ashish Jain, Asst. Prof. Anand Singh

ABSTRACT
Fle xible AC Transmission Syste ms (FACTS) controlle rs have be e n use d in powe r syste ms since the 1970s with the obje ctive of improving syste m dynamic pe rformance . Due to the e nvironme ntal, right-of-way, and cost proble ms in both bundle d and unbundle d powe r syste ms, many transmission line s have be e n force d to ope rate at almost the ir full capacitie s worldwide . FACTS controlle rs e nhance the static pe rformance viz . incre ase d loading, conge stion manage me nt, re duce d syste m loss, e conomic ope ration, e tc., and dynamic pe rformance viz . incre ase d stability limits, damping of powe r syste m oscillation, e tc. In this pape r, an ove rvie w of FACTS controlle rs is e xplaine d. Various FACTS controlle r se ve ral de vice s in FACTS family are also discusse d.The the sis e xplains various powe r quality proble ms and the FACTS controlle rs that are use d to mitigate the powe r quality proble ms. Propose d FACTS controlle r for a particular type of proble m is also give n. The simulation re sults give the cle ar obse rvation of how the FACTS de vice s improve the powe r quality. The simulation work is done on Static Var Compe nsator (SVC) and Static Synchronous Se rie s Compe nsator(SSSC).
