Ch.Rambabu, Dr.Y.P.Obulesu, Dr.Ch.Saibabu . Improvement of Voltage Profile and Reduce Power System Losses by using Multi Type Facts Devices. International Journal of Computer Applications. 13, 2 ( January 2011), 37-41. DOI=10.5120/1750-2384
In emerging electric power systems, increased transactions often lead to the situations where the system no longer remains in secure operating region. The flexible Ac transmission system (FACTS) controllers can play an important role in the power system security enhancement. However, due to high capital investment, it is necessary to locate these controllers optimally in the power system. FACTS devices can regulate the active and reactive power control as well as adaptive to voltage-magnitude control simultaneously because of their flexibility and fast control characteristics. Placement of these devices in suitable location can lead to control in line flow and maintain bus voltages in desired level and so improve voltage stability margins.
