Abstract

Power Quality voltage problems in a power system may be either at system frequency or due to transient surges with higher frequency components. These are called switching types overvoltages which can be produced during opening or closing a switch and they may be severe in certain cases. The paper presents a low cost FACTS based dynamic capacitor scheme for voltage compensation and power quality enhancement. The FACTS dynamic compensator is a member of a family of smart power low cost compensators developed by the First Author.
