Distribution System Power Quality Improvement Using D-STATCOM

Abstract

Power quality can be explained as the set of limits defined for a system’s electrical parameters so that the whole electrical system can function in its intended manner & performs without significant losses. Power quality constraints like power factor correction, voltage regulation, load balancing, and harmonic elimination can be maintained and fixed using Distribution Static Compensator (DSTATCOM). In the presented work, author has presented a detailed comparative study of three different effective control strategies for DSTATCOM to target reactive rower compensation and Total Harmonic Distortion (THD). The results are demonstrated in details using simulation performed in MATLAB-SIMULINK software which shows the good capability of these different control algorithms to provide good power quality for electrical system
