A D-STATCOM TO CONTROL POWER QUALITY ISSUES IN GRID CONNECTED WIND POWER SYSTEM
Keywords:
DSTATCOM, Voltage sag, Voltage swellAbstract
Voltage sag and voltage swell have been considered as one of the most harmful power quality problem in
power system as it may significantly affect industrial production. To overcome the problem related to power quality
Custom power devices, a distribution static compensator is used in this work which is one of the power-conditioning
technology devices used to correct end-user problems in response to voltage sag. The fast response of the Distribution
Static Compensator (DSTATCOM) makes it the efficient solution for improving power quality in distribution
systems.IEEE-14 bus system is simulated using MATLAB, Simulink, and Simpower system software. It constitutes 14
bus, 5 generation, three transformers, 20 lines and 11 loads. Wind farm consisting of six 1.5-MW wind turbines is
connected across the bus 8 of 14- bus system. The grid connected wind energy generation system for power quality
improvement by using DSTATCOM-control scheme is simulated using SIMULINK in power system block set
