ABSTRACT
The modern power distribution network is constantly
being faced with an ever-growing load demand.
Distribution networks experience distinct change from a
low to high load level every day. Electric load growth
and higher regional power transfers in a largely
interconnected network becoming more complex and
less secure power system operation. Power generation
and transmission facilities are unable to meet these new
demands. Voltage control is a difficult task because
voltages are strongly influenced by random load
fluctuations. Voltage profile can be improved and power
losses can be considerably reduced by installing Custom
Power Devices or Controllers at suitable location.
FACTS are devices which allow the flexible and
dynamic control of power systems. Enhancement of
system stability using FACTS controllers has been
investigated. These controllers which are also named
Distribution Flexible AC Transmission System (DFACTS) are a new generation of power electronicsbased equipment aimed at enhancing the reliability and
quality of power flows in low-voltage distribution
networks. This work includes first the optimal location
of FACTS devices, second voltage stability analysis and
third control of reactive power of system. The model can
be simulated in MATLAB. The performance of the
whole system such as voltage stability, transient
stability, frequency and power swings will be analyzed
and compared without FACTS and with FACTS device.
For stability analysis after creating the faults
(disturbances) in the system the FACT device (SVC,
STATCOM, SSSC, and UPFC) and power system
stabilizers (PSS) can be used to improve transient
stability and power oscillation damping of the system.
