Abstract

The main impact in the power distribution system is the quality of power, which causes more distortion in the source due to using nonlinear load. The main cause for distortion is harmonics, and interharmonics. Thus it is necessary to control the harmonics to improve the power quality of the system. There are number of control techniques to improve the power quality with the FACTS devices. In this paper performance of Distribution Static Compensator (D-STAT COM) for Power Quality improvement has been studied. The simulation is done in MATLAB/SIMULINK environment.
