A current source converter (CSC) based static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) is a shunt flexible AC transmission system(FACTS) device which has a vital role as a stability support for small and large transient instability in an interconnected powernetwork This paper investigates the impact of a novel and robust pole-shifting controller for CSC-STATCOM to improve thetransient stability of the multimachine power system The proposed algorithm utilizes CSC based STATCOM to supply reactivepower to the test system to maintain the transient stability in the event of severe contingency Firstly modeling and pole-shiftingcontroller design for CSC based STATCOM are stated After that we show the impact of the proposedmethod in the multimachinepower system with different disturbances Here applicability of the proposed scheme is demonstrated through simulation inMATLAB and the simulation results show an improvement in the transient stability of multimachine power system with CSC-STATCOM Also clearly shown the robustness and effectiveness of CSC-STATCOM are better rather than other shunt FACTSdevices (SVC and VSC-STATCOM) by comparing the results in this paper

1 Introduction

The continuous developments of electrical loads due to themodification of the society structure result in todayrsquos trans-mission structure to be faced close to their stability restric-tions So the renovation of urban and rural power networkis more and more necessary Due to governmental financialand green climate reasons it is not always possible toconstruct new transmission lines to relieve the power systemstability problem at the existing overloaded transmissionlines As a result the utility industry is facing the challengeof efficient utilization of the existing AC transmission linesin power system networks So transient stability voltageregulation damping oscillations and so forth are the mostimportant operating issues that electrical engineers are facingduring power transfer at high levels

In above power quality problems transient stability is oneof the most important key factors during power transfer athigh levels According to the literature transient stability of a

power system is its ability tomaintain synchronous operationof the machines when subjected to a large disturbance [1]While the generator excitation system with PSS (power sys-tem stabilizer) can maintain excitation control and stabilityit is not adequate to sustain the stability of power system forlarge faults or overloading occurs near to generator terminals[2]

So many researchers worked on this problem in findingthe solution for a long timeThese solutions are such as usingwide-area measurement signals [3] phasor measurementunit [4] and flexible AC transmission system In thesesolutions one of the powerful methods for enhancing thetransient stability is to use flexible AC transmission system(FACTS) devices [5ndash8] Even though the prime objective ofshunt FACTS devices (SVC STATCOM) is to maintain busvoltage by absorbing (or injecting) reactive power they arealso competent of improving the system stability by diminish-ing (or increasing) the capability of power transfer when themachine angle decreases (increases) which is accomplished

by operating the shunt FACTS devices in inductive (capaci-tive) mode

In many research papers [2 9ndash11] the different typesof these devices with different control techniques are usedfor improving transient stability In between these FACTSdevices the STATCOM is valuable for enhancement powersystem dynamic stability and frequency stabilization due tothe more rapid output response lower harmonics superiorcontrol stability and small size and so forth [7 12] By theirinverter configuration basic type of STATCOM topologycan be realized by either a current-source converter (CSC)or a voltage-source converter (VSC) [13ndash17] But recentresearch confirms several merits of CSC based STATCOMover VSC based STATCOM [18 19] These advantages arehigh converter reliability quick starting and inherent short-circuit protection and the output current of the converteris directly controlled and in low switching frequency thisreduces the filtering requirements comparedwith the case of aVSCTherefore CSC based STATCOM is very useful in powersystems rather than VSC based STATCOM in many cases

Presently the most used techniques for controller designof FACTS devices are the Proportional Integration (PI) PIDcontroller [20] pole-shifting controller and linear quadraticregulator (LQR) [21] But LQR and pole-shifting algorithmsgive quicker response in comparison to PI and PID algorithm[22] LQR controller gain (119870) can be calculated by solvingthe Riccati equation and 119870 is also dependent on the twocost functions (119876 119877) So Riccati equation solvers have somelimitations which relate to the input arguments But poleshifting method does not face this type of any problem Sopole shifting method gives a better and robust performancein comparison to other methods

The main contribution of this paper is the application ofproposed pole-shifting controller based CSC-STATCOM forimprovement of power system stability in terms of transientstability by injecting (or absorbing) reactive power In thispaper the proposed scheme is used in the multimachinepower transmission system with dynamic loads under agrievous disturbance condition (three-phase fault or heavyloading) to enhancement of power system transient stabilitystudies and to observe the impact of the CSC based STAT-COM on electromechanical oscillations and transmissioncapacity Furthermore the obtained outcomes from theproposed algorithm based CSC-STATCOM are compared tothe obtained outcomes from the other shunt FACTS devices(SVCandVSC-STATCOM)which are used in previousworks[23 24]

2 Mathematical Modeling of Pole-ShiftingController Based CSC-STATCOM

21 CSC Based STATCOM Model In this section to verifythe response of the STATCOM on dynamic performancethe mathematical modeling and control strategy of a CSCbased STATCOM are needed to be presented So in thedesigning of controller for CSC based STATCOM the statespace equations from the CSC-STATCOM circuit must beintroduced To minimize the complexity of mathematicalcalculation the theory of 119889119902 transformation of currentshas been applied in this circuit which makes the 119889 and119902 components independent parameters Figure 1 shows thecircuit diagram of a typical CSC based STATCOM

The basic mathematical equations of the CSC basedSTATCOM have been derived in the literature [19] There-fore only brief details of the primary equations for CSC-STATCOMare given here for the readersrsquo convenience Basedon the equivalent circuit of CSC-STATCOM as shown inFigure 1 the differential equations for the system can beachieved which are derived in the abc frame and thentransformed into the synchronous 119889119902 frame using 119889119902 trans-formation method [25]

Equation (1) shows that controller for CSC based STAT-COMhas nonlinearity characteristic So this nonlinear prop-erty can be removed by accurately modeling of CSC basedSTATCOM From (1) to (5) it can be seen that nonlinearproperty in the CSC-STATCOM model is due to the partof 119868dc This nonlinear property is removed with the help ofactive power balance equationHere it has been assumed thatthe power loss in the switches and resistance 119877dc is ignoredand the turns ratio of the shunt transformer is n 1 Here itis considered that generated power from the AC-source side(119875ac) is equal to absorbed power by DC-source side (119875dc) andpower loss at this time is negligible So this can be written inequation form as

Above modeling of CSC based STATCOM is written inthe form of modern control methods that is state-spacerepresentation For state-space modeling of the system nextsection has been considered

22 Pole-Shifting Controller Design The pole-shifting tech-nique is one of the basic controlmethods which are employedin feedback control system theoryTheoretically pole-shiftingtechnique is to set the preferred pole position and tomove thepole position of the system to that preferred pole positionto get the desired system outcomes [26] Here poles ofsystem are shifted because the position of the poles relateddirectly to the eigenvalues of the system which control thedynamic characteristics of the system outcomes But for thismethod the system must be controllable In the dynamicmodeling of systems state-space equations involve threetypes of variables state variables (119909) and input (119906) and output(119910) variables with disturbance (119890) So comparing (8) with thestandard state-space representation that is

= 119860119909 + 119861119906 + 119865119890

119910 = 119862119909

In the above equations (9) five system states two controlinputs and two control outputs are presented where 119909 is thestate vector 119906 is the input vector 119860 is the basis matrix 119861 isthe input matrix and 119890 is disturbance input

If the controller is set as

then the state equation of closed loop can be written as

Here for steady state condition

All above equations are represented for the capacitivemode of CSC-STATCOM So if the inductive mode ofoperation is needed in the system then 119868csc is replaced by minus119868cscin (18) (20) and (22) With the help of (17) the power-anglecurve of the test system can be drawn for stability analysis asshown in Figure 4

The power-angle (119875-120575) curve of the test system withouta CSC-STATCOM is represented by curve 119860 (also calledprefault condition) in Figure 4 Here the mechanical inputis 119875119898 electrical output is 119875

119890 at curve 119862 (also called postfault condition) At this time119875119886is negative Thus the machine starts decelerating but its

angle continues to increase from point 119890 to the point119891 until itreaches a maximum allowable value 120575119898 at point 119891 for systemstability The area 119890-119891-119892-119889-119890 represents the decelerating area119860119889 as defined in (23) From previous literature [1] equal areacriterion for stability of the system can be written as

From Figure 4 we clearly see for capacitive mode operation(119868csc gt 0) of CSC-STATCOMdevice the119875-120575 curve is not onlyuplifted but also displaced toward right and that enduesmore

decelerating area and hence higher stability limit After thatSection 4 is considered to verify the impact of the proposedcontroller based CSC-STATCOMmodeling in the analysis ofthemultimachine power system stability in terms of transientstability studies

4 Simulation Results

41 Multimachine Power System under Study In this sectiontwo-area four-machine power system is considered for thetest system study For this type of test system a 500 kVtransmission system with four hydraulic power plants (G1G2 G3 and G4) connected through 500-km long transmis-sion line is taken as shown in Figure 5 Here combinationof machine G1 and machine G2 represents the area 1 andcombination of machine G3 and machine G4 representsthe area 2 A rating of first (G1) and second (G2) powergeneration plant is 138 kv1000MVA The electrical outputsof the third (G3) and fourth (G4) power plant are 3000MVAOne 6000MW large resistive load is connected at the busB3 and another 1000MW resistive load is connected atthe bus B1 as shown in Figure 5 In this figure 828MWpower is flowing through bus B2 944MW and 877MWpower are flowing through buses B4 and B5 respectively and2487MW and 2643MW power are flowing through busesB6 and B7 respectively These values are based on powerflow calculation To improve the transient stability of thetest-system after disturbances (faults or heavy loading) apole-shifting controller based CSC-STATCOM is connectedat the mid-point of transmission line (at bus B2) In orderto previous work [27] shunt FACTS devices give maximumefficiency when connected at the mid-point of transmissionline Here each hydraulic generating unit is assembled witha turbine-governor set excitation system and synchronousgenerator But the hydraulic generating unit is not explainedin this paperThis is explained in [1] All the data required forthis test system model are given in the appendix

Now a severe contingency will be applied to the test sys-tem and to observe the impact of the pole-shifting controllerbased CSC-STATCOM for maintaining the system stabilitythrough MATLABSIMULINK

42 Case ImdashShort-Circuit Fault In this case it is consideredthat a three-phase fault is occurring at near bus B1 at 119905 =

01 s and is cleared at 0277 s The impact of system with andwithout CSC based STATCOM to this disturbance is shownin Figures 6 7 8 9 and 10 Here simulation is carried outfor 9 s to observe the nature of transients It is clear thatthe system without CSC-STATCOM is unstable upon theclearance of the fault from Figures 6 to 8 But this systemwithpole-shifting controller based CSC-STATCOM is restoredand stable upon the clearance of the fault and settled downafter about 3 to 4 s in Figures 7 to 10 Synchronism in betweenfour machine system is also maintained in these figures InFigure 7 1205751 1205752 1205753 and 120575

provided in Table 1 Clearly shown CCT for test system isbetter due to the impact of pole-shifting controller basedCSC-STATCOM Hence the performance of the proposedscheme is still satisfactory in this case

44 Case IIImdashA Comparative Study In order to show therobustness performance of the proposed scheme for improv-ing the transient stability of the system after this obtainedoutcomes from the proposed pole-shifting controller basedCSC-STATCOM are compared to the obtained outcomesfrom the other shunt FACTS devices (SVC and VSC basedSTATCOM)which have been used in somemost cited papers[23 24] In this case it has been assumed that the test systemis same for all shunt FACTS devices and all shunt FACTSdevices have the same rating (200Mvar) After this we checkthe impact of these shunt FACTS devices on the test systemwith three-phase fault condition The obtained simulationresults with these shunt FACTS devices are compared inFigure 16 In this figure system with SVC is reached inunstable condition Here three-phase fault duration is 01 sto 0285 s CCT for the system with different shunt FACTS

devices is shown in Table 2 If heavy loading condition isapplied during 01 s to 0486 s in this case then effect of thisdisturbance is shown in Figure 17 In all figures of Figures 16and 17 multimachine power system with proposed topologybased CSC-STATCOM is continuing stable condition Inthese figures the oscillations are damped more quickly andsettled down after 3 to 4 sec by proposed topology basedCSC-STATCOM in comparison to other devices In this com-parative study transient stability margin is also increased byincreasing the CCT with the help of CSC-STATCOM devicefrom Table 2 Clearly waveforms show that CSC-STATCOMis more effective and robust performance than that of othershunt FACTS devices (SVC and VSC-STATCOM) in termsof oscillation damping settling time CCT and transient sta-bility of the multimachine power system in Figures 16 and 17

5 Conclusions

In this paper the dynamic modeling of CSC based STAT-COM is studied and proposed pole-shifting controller for thebest input-output response of CSC-STATCOM is presentedin order to enhance the system transient stability of themultimachine power system with the different disturbancesThe novelty in proposed approach lies in the fact thattransient stability of a two-area four-machine power systemis improved and critical clearing time of the disturbance isalso increased In this work the proposed scheme is verifiedfrom MATLAB package It has been also observed thatpole-shifting controller based CSC-STATCOM can be morereliable and very effective rather than other shunt FACTSdevices (SVC and VSC-STATCOM) in terms of oscillationdamping CCT and transient stability of a multimachinepower system So finally it can be said that CSC basedSTATCOM can be regarded as an alternative FACTS deviceto that of other shunt FACTS devices

by operating the shunt FACTS devices in inductive (capaci-tive) mode

In many research papers [2 9ndash11] the different typesof these devices with different control techniques are usedfor improving transient stability In between these FACTSdevices the STATCOM is valuable for enhancement powersystem dynamic stability and frequency stabilization due tothe more rapid output response lower harmonics superiorcontrol stability and small size and so forth [7 12] By theirinverter configuration basic type of STATCOM topologycan be realized by either a current-source converter (CSC)or a voltage-source converter (VSC) [13ndash17] But recentresearch confirms several merits of CSC based STATCOMover VSC based STATCOM [18 19] These advantages arehigh converter reliability quick starting and inherent short-circuit protection and the output current of the converteris directly controlled and in low switching frequency thisreduces the filtering requirements comparedwith the case of aVSCTherefore CSC based STATCOM is very useful in powersystems rather than VSC based STATCOM in many cases

Presently the most used techniques for controller designof FACTS devices are the Proportional Integration (PI) PIDcontroller [20] pole-shifting controller and linear quadraticregulator (LQR) [21] But LQR and pole-shifting algorithmsgive quicker response in comparison to PI and PID algorithm[22] LQR controller gain (119870) can be calculated by solvingthe Riccati equation and 119870 is also dependent on the twocost functions (119876 119877) So Riccati equation solvers have somelimitations which relate to the input arguments But poleshifting method does not face this type of any problem Sopole shifting method gives a better and robust performancein comparison to other methods

The main contribution of this paper is the application ofproposed pole-shifting controller based CSC-STATCOM forimprovement of power system stability in terms of transientstability by injecting (or absorbing) reactive power In thispaper the proposed scheme is used in the multimachinepower transmission system with dynamic loads under agrievous disturbance condition (three-phase fault or heavyloading) to enhancement of power system transient stabilitystudies and to observe the impact of the CSC based STAT-COM on electromechanical oscillations and transmissioncapacity Furthermore the obtained outcomes from theproposed algorithm based CSC-STATCOM are compared tothe obtained outcomes from the other shunt FACTS devices(SVCandVSC-STATCOM)which are used in previousworks[23 24]

The rest of the paper is prepared as follows Section 2discusses the circuit modeling and proposed pole-shiftingcontroller designing for CSC based STATCOM A two-areapower system is described with a CSC-STATCOM devicein Section 3 Simulation results of the test system with andwithout CSC based STATCOM for severe contingency areshown in Section 4 to improve the transient stability of themultimachine power system Comparison among differentshunt FACTS devices (SVC VSC-STATCOM and CSC-STATCOM) is also described in Section 4 Finally Section 5concludes this paper

2 Mathematical Modeling of Pole-ShiftingController Based CSC-STATCOM

21 CSC Based STATCOM Model In this section to verifythe response of the STATCOM on dynamic performancethe mathematical modeling and control strategy of a CSCbased STATCOM are needed to be presented So in thedesigning of controller for CSC based STATCOM the statespace equations from the CSC-STATCOM circuit must beintroduced To minimize the complexity of mathematicalcalculation the theory of 119889119902 transformation of currentshas been applied in this circuit which makes the 119889 and119902 components independent parameters Figure 1 shows thecircuit diagram of a typical CSC based STATCOM

The basic mathematical equations of the CSC basedSTATCOM have been derived in the literature [19] There-fore only brief details of the primary equations for CSC-STATCOMare given here for the readersrsquo convenience Basedon the equivalent circuit of CSC-STATCOM as shown inFigure 1 the differential equations for the system can beachieved which are derived in the abc frame and thentransformed into the synchronous 119889119902 frame using 119889119902 trans-formation method [25]

Equation (1) shows that controller for CSC based STAT-COMhas nonlinearity characteristic So this nonlinear prop-erty can be removed by accurately modeling of CSC basedSTATCOM From (1) to (5) it can be seen that nonlinearproperty in the CSC-STATCOM model is due to the partof 119868dc This nonlinear property is removed with the help ofactive power balance equationHere it has been assumed thatthe power loss in the switches and resistance 119877dc is ignoredand the turns ratio of the shunt transformer is n 1 Here itis considered that generated power from the AC-source side(119875ac) is equal to absorbed power by DC-source side (119875dc) andpower loss at this time is negligible So this can be written inequation form as

Above modeling of CSC based STATCOM is written inthe form of modern control methods that is state-spacerepresentation For state-space modeling of the system nextsection has been considered

22 Pole-Shifting Controller Design The pole-shifting tech-nique is one of the basic controlmethods which are employedin feedback control system theoryTheoretically pole-shiftingtechnique is to set the preferred pole position and tomove thepole position of the system to that preferred pole positionto get the desired system outcomes [26] Here poles ofsystem are shifted because the position of the poles relateddirectly to the eigenvalues of the system which control thedynamic characteristics of the system outcomes But for thismethod the system must be controllable In the dynamicmodeling of systems state-space equations involve threetypes of variables state variables (119909) and input (119906) and output(119910) variables with disturbance (119890) So comparing (8) with thestandard state-space representation that is

119910 = 119862119909

then the state equation of closed loop can be written as

Finally using (20) and (21) the total electrical output (119875119890)

of machine with CSC-STATCOM can be written as

All above equations are represented for the capacitivemode of CSC-STATCOM So if the inductive mode ofoperation is needed in the system then 119868csc is replaced by minus119868cscin (18) (20) and (22) With the help of (17) the power-anglecurve of the test system can be drawn for stability analysis asshown in Figure 4

The power-angle (119875-120575) curve of the test system withouta CSC-STATCOM is represented by curve 119860 (also calledprefault condition) in Figure 4 Here the mechanical inputis 119875119898 electrical output is 119875

119890 and initial angle is 120575

0 When a

fault occurs 119875119890suddenly decreases and the operation shifts

from point 119886 to point 119887 at curve 119861 and thus the machinestarts accelerating from point 119887 to point 119888 where acceleratingpower [119875

119886= (119875119898minus 119875119890)] gt 0 At fault clearing 119875

119890suddenly

increases and the area 119886-119887-119888-119889-119886 represents the acceleratingarea 119860

119886as defined in (23) If the CSC-STATCOM operates

in a capacitive mode (at fault clearing) 119875119890increases to point

119890 at curve 119862 (also called postfault condition) At this time119875119886is negative Thus the machine starts decelerating but its

angle continues to increase from point 119890 to the point119891 until itreaches a maximum allowable value 120575119898 at point 119891 for systemstability The area 119890-119891-119892-119889-119890 represents the decelerating area119860119889 as defined in (23) From previous literature [1] equal areacriterion for stability of the system can be written as

This equation is generated from Figure 4 where 120575119888is

critical clearing angle 119875119901119890is an electrical output for postfault

condition 119875119891119890is an electrical output during fault condition

From Figure 4 we clearly see for capacitive mode operation(119868csc gt 0) of CSC-STATCOMdevice the119875-120575 curve is not onlyuplifted but also displaced toward right and that enduesmore

decelerating area and hence higher stability limit After thatSection 4 is considered to verify the impact of the proposedcontroller based CSC-STATCOMmodeling in the analysis ofthemultimachine power system stability in terms of transientstability studies

4 Simulation Results

41 Multimachine Power System under Study In this sectiontwo-area four-machine power system is considered for thetest system study For this type of test system a 500 kVtransmission system with four hydraulic power plants (G1G2 G3 and G4) connected through 500-km long transmis-sion line is taken as shown in Figure 5 Here combinationof machine G1 and machine G2 represents the area 1 andcombination of machine G3 and machine G4 representsthe area 2 A rating of first (G1) and second (G2) powergeneration plant is 138 kv1000MVA The electrical outputsof the third (G3) and fourth (G4) power plant are 3000MVAOne 6000MW large resistive load is connected at the busB3 and another 1000MW resistive load is connected atthe bus B1 as shown in Figure 5 In this figure 828MWpower is flowing through bus B2 944MW and 877MWpower are flowing through buses B4 and B5 respectively and2487MW and 2643MW power are flowing through busesB6 and B7 respectively These values are based on powerflow calculation To improve the transient stability of thetest-system after disturbances (faults or heavy loading) apole-shifting controller based CSC-STATCOM is connectedat the mid-point of transmission line (at bus B2) In orderto previous work [27] shunt FACTS devices give maximumefficiency when connected at the mid-point of transmissionline Here each hydraulic generating unit is assembled witha turbine-governor set excitation system and synchronousgenerator But the hydraulic generating unit is not explainedin this paperThis is explained in [1] All the data required forthis test system model are given in the appendix

Now a severe contingency will be applied to the test sys-tem and to observe the impact of the pole-shifting controllerbased CSC-STATCOM for maintaining the system stabilitythrough MATLABSIMULINK

42 Case ImdashShort-Circuit Fault In this case it is consideredthat a three-phase fault is occurring at near bus B1 at 119905 =

01 s and is cleared at 0277 s The impact of system with andwithout CSC based STATCOM to this disturbance is shownin Figures 6 7 8 9 and 10 Here simulation is carried outfor 9 s to observe the nature of transients It is clear thatthe system without CSC-STATCOM is unstable upon theclearance of the fault from Figures 6 to 8 But this systemwithpole-shifting controller based CSC-STATCOM is restoredand stable upon the clearance of the fault and settled downafter about 3 to 4 s in Figures 7 to 10 Synchronism in betweenfour machine system is also maintained in these figures InFigure 7 1205751 1205752 1205753 and 120575

provided in Table 1 Clearly shown CCT for test system isbetter due to the impact of pole-shifting controller basedCSC-STATCOM Hence the performance of the proposedscheme is still satisfactory in this case

44 Case IIImdashA Comparative Study In order to show therobustness performance of the proposed scheme for improv-ing the transient stability of the system after this obtainedoutcomes from the proposed pole-shifting controller basedCSC-STATCOM are compared to the obtained outcomesfrom the other shunt FACTS devices (SVC and VSC basedSTATCOM)which have been used in somemost cited papers[23 24] In this case it has been assumed that the test systemis same for all shunt FACTS devices and all shunt FACTSdevices have the same rating (200Mvar) After this we checkthe impact of these shunt FACTS devices on the test systemwith three-phase fault condition The obtained simulationresults with these shunt FACTS devices are compared inFigure 16 In this figure system with SVC is reached inunstable condition Here three-phase fault duration is 01 sto 0285 s CCT for the system with different shunt FACTS

devices is shown in Table 2 If heavy loading condition isapplied during 01 s to 0486 s in this case then effect of thisdisturbance is shown in Figure 17 In all figures of Figures 16and 17 multimachine power system with proposed topologybased CSC-STATCOM is continuing stable condition Inthese figures the oscillations are damped more quickly andsettled down after 3 to 4 sec by proposed topology basedCSC-STATCOM in comparison to other devices In this com-parative study transient stability margin is also increased byincreasing the CCT with the help of CSC-STATCOM devicefrom Table 2 Clearly waveforms show that CSC-STATCOMis more effective and robust performance than that of othershunt FACTS devices (SVC and VSC-STATCOM) in termsof oscillation damping settling time CCT and transient sta-bility of the multimachine power system in Figures 16 and 17

5 Conclusions

In this paper the dynamic modeling of CSC based STAT-COM is studied and proposed pole-shifting controller for thebest input-output response of CSC-STATCOM is presentedin order to enhance the system transient stability of themultimachine power system with the different disturbancesThe novelty in proposed approach lies in the fact thattransient stability of a two-area four-machine power systemis improved and critical clearing time of the disturbance isalso increased In this work the proposed scheme is verifiedfrom MATLAB package It has been also observed thatpole-shifting controller based CSC-STATCOM can be morereliable and very effective rather than other shunt FACTSdevices (SVC and VSC-STATCOM) in terms of oscillationdamping CCT and transient stability of a multimachinepower system So finally it can be said that CSC basedSTATCOM can be regarded as an alternative FACTS deviceto that of other shunt FACTS devices

Equation (1) shows that controller for CSC based STAT-COMhas nonlinearity characteristic So this nonlinear prop-erty can be removed by accurately modeling of CSC basedSTATCOM From (1) to (5) it can be seen that nonlinearproperty in the CSC-STATCOM model is due to the partof 119868dc This nonlinear property is removed with the help ofactive power balance equationHere it has been assumed thatthe power loss in the switches and resistance 119877dc is ignoredand the turns ratio of the shunt transformer is n 1 Here itis considered that generated power from the AC-source side(119875ac) is equal to absorbed power by DC-source side (119875dc) andpower loss at this time is negligible So this can be written inequation form as

Above modeling of CSC based STATCOM is written inthe form of modern control methods that is state-spacerepresentation For state-space modeling of the system nextsection has been considered

22 Pole-Shifting Controller Design The pole-shifting tech-nique is one of the basic controlmethods which are employedin feedback control system theoryTheoretically pole-shiftingtechnique is to set the preferred pole position and tomove thepole position of the system to that preferred pole positionto get the desired system outcomes [26] Here poles ofsystem are shifted because the position of the poles relateddirectly to the eigenvalues of the system which control thedynamic characteristics of the system outcomes But for thismethod the system must be controllable In the dynamicmodeling of systems state-space equations involve threetypes of variables state variables (119909) and input (119906) and output(119910) variables with disturbance (119890) So comparing (8) with thestandard state-space representation that is

= 119860119909 + 119861119906 + 119865119890

119910 = 119862119909

We get the system matrices as

In the above equations (9) five system states two controlinputs and two control outputs are presented where 119909 is thestate vector 119906 is the input vector 119860 is the basis matrix 119861 isthe input matrix and 119890 is disturbance input

If the controller is set as

119906 = minus119870 lowast 119909 + 119869 lowast 119910ref + 119873 lowast 119890 (11)

then the state equation of closed loop can be written as

= (119860 minus 119861 lowast 119870) lowast 119909 + 119869 lowast 119910ref + 119861 lowast 119873 lowast 119890 + 119865 lowast 119890 (12)

Here for steady state condition

Then

In this section consider a two-area power systemwith a CSC-STATCOMat bus 119887 is connected through a long transmissionsystem where CSC-STATCOM is used as a shunt currentsource device Figure 3 shows this type of representationThe dynamic model of the machine with a CSC-STATCOMcan be written in the differential algebraic equation form asfollows

Figure 3 A single line diagramof two-area power systemwithCSC-STATCOM

Here for calculation of 119875csc119890

we assume the CSC-STATCOM works in capacitive mode Then the injectedcurrent fromCSC-STATCOM to test system can bewritten as

119868csc = 119868cscang (120579119887119900 minus 90∘) (18)

where 120579119887119900 is the voltage angle at bus 119887 in absentia of CSC-STATCOM In Figure 3 the magnitude (119864119889) and angle (120579119887)of voltage at bus 119887 can be computed as

120579119887 = tanminus1 [ 119883

From (20) it can be said that the voltage magnitude ofbus 119887 (119864

119889) depends on the STATCOM current (119868csc) In (17)

the electrical output power 119875csc119890

Finally using (20) and (21) the total electrical output (119875119890)

of machine with CSC-STATCOM can be written as

(22)

All above equations are represented for the capacitivemode of CSC-STATCOM So if the inductive mode ofoperation is needed in the system then 119868csc is replaced by minus119868cscin (18) (20) and (22) With the help of (17) the power-anglecurve of the test system can be drawn for stability analysis asshown in Figure 4

The power-angle (119875-120575) curve of the test system withouta CSC-STATCOM is represented by curve 119860 (also calledprefault condition) in Figure 4 Here the mechanical inputis 119875119898 electrical output is 119875

119890 and initial angle is 120575

0 When a

fault occurs 119875119890suddenly decreases and the operation shifts

from point 119886 to point 119887 at curve 119861 and thus the machinestarts accelerating from point 119887 to point 119888 where acceleratingpower [119875

119886= (119875119898minus 119875119890)] gt 0 At fault clearing 119875

119890suddenly

increases and the area 119886-119887-119888-119889-119886 represents the acceleratingarea 119860

119886as defined in (23) If the CSC-STATCOM operates

in a capacitive mode (at fault clearing) 119875119890increases to point

119890 at curve 119862 (also called postfault condition) At this time119875119886is negative Thus the machine starts decelerating but its

angle continues to increase from point 119890 to the point119891 until itreaches a maximum allowable value 120575119898 at point 119891 for systemstability The area 119890-119891-119892-119889-119890 represents the decelerating area119860119889 as defined in (23) From previous literature [1] equal areacriterion for stability of the system can be written as

This equation is generated from Figure 4 where 120575119888is

critical clearing angle 119875119901119890is an electrical output for postfault

condition 119875119891119890is an electrical output during fault condition

From Figure 4 we clearly see for capacitive mode operation(119868csc gt 0) of CSC-STATCOMdevice the119875-120575 curve is not onlyuplifted but also displaced toward right and that enduesmore

41 Multimachine Power System under Study In this sectiontwo-area four-machine power system is considered for thetest system study For this type of test system a 500 kVtransmission system with four hydraulic power plants (G1G2 G3 and G4) connected through 500-km long transmis-sion line is taken as shown in Figure 5 Here combinationof machine G1 and machine G2 represents the area 1 andcombination of machine G3 and machine G4 representsthe area 2 A rating of first (G1) and second (G2) powergeneration plant is 138 kv1000MVA The electrical outputsof the third (G3) and fourth (G4) power plant are 3000MVAOne 6000MW large resistive load is connected at the busB3 and another 1000MW resistive load is connected atthe bus B1 as shown in Figure 5 In this figure 828MWpower is flowing through bus B2 944MW and 877MWpower are flowing through buses B4 and B5 respectively and2487MW and 2643MW power are flowing through busesB6 and B7 respectively These values are based on powerflow calculation To improve the transient stability of thetest-system after disturbances (faults or heavy loading) apole-shifting controller based CSC-STATCOM is connectedat the mid-point of transmission line (at bus B2) In orderto previous work [27] shunt FACTS devices give maximumefficiency when connected at the mid-point of transmissionline Here each hydraulic generating unit is assembled witha turbine-governor set excitation system and synchronousgenerator But the hydraulic generating unit is not explainedin this paperThis is explained in [1] All the data required forthis test system model are given in the appendix

Now a severe contingency will be applied to the test sys-tem and to observe the impact of the pole-shifting controllerbased CSC-STATCOM for maintaining the system stabilitythrough MATLABSIMULINK

42 Case ImdashShort-Circuit Fault In this case it is consideredthat a three-phase fault is occurring at near bus B1 at 119905 =

01 s and is cleared at 0277 s The impact of system with andwithout CSC based STATCOM to this disturbance is shownin Figures 6 7 8 9 and 10 Here simulation is carried outfor 9 s to observe the nature of transients It is clear thatthe system without CSC-STATCOM is unstable upon theclearance of the fault from Figures 6 to 8 But this systemwithpole-shifting controller based CSC-STATCOM is restoredand stable upon the clearance of the fault and settled downafter about 3 to 4 s in Figures 7 to 10 Synchronism in betweenfour machine system is also maintained in these figures InFigure 7 1205751 1205752 1205753 and 120575

provided in Table 1 Clearly shown CCT for test system isbetter due to the impact of pole-shifting controller basedCSC-STATCOM Hence the performance of the proposedscheme is still satisfactory in this case

44 Case IIImdashA Comparative Study In order to show therobustness performance of the proposed scheme for improv-ing the transient stability of the system after this obtainedoutcomes from the proposed pole-shifting controller basedCSC-STATCOM are compared to the obtained outcomesfrom the other shunt FACTS devices (SVC and VSC basedSTATCOM)which have been used in somemost cited papers[23 24] In this case it has been assumed that the test systemis same for all shunt FACTS devices and all shunt FACTSdevices have the same rating (200Mvar) After this we checkthe impact of these shunt FACTS devices on the test systemwith three-phase fault condition The obtained simulationresults with these shunt FACTS devices are compared inFigure 16 In this figure system with SVC is reached inunstable condition Here three-phase fault duration is 01 sto 0285 s CCT for the system with different shunt FACTS

devices is shown in Table 2 If heavy loading condition isapplied during 01 s to 0486 s in this case then effect of thisdisturbance is shown in Figure 17 In all figures of Figures 16and 17 multimachine power system with proposed topologybased CSC-STATCOM is continuing stable condition Inthese figures the oscillations are damped more quickly andsettled down after 3 to 4 sec by proposed topology basedCSC-STATCOM in comparison to other devices In this com-parative study transient stability margin is also increased byincreasing the CCT with the help of CSC-STATCOM devicefrom Table 2 Clearly waveforms show that CSC-STATCOMis more effective and robust performance than that of othershunt FACTS devices (SVC and VSC-STATCOM) in termsof oscillation damping settling time CCT and transient sta-bility of the multimachine power system in Figures 16 and 17

5 Conclusions

In this paper the dynamic modeling of CSC based STAT-COM is studied and proposed pole-shifting controller for thebest input-output response of CSC-STATCOM is presentedin order to enhance the system transient stability of themultimachine power system with the different disturbancesThe novelty in proposed approach lies in the fact thattransient stability of a two-area four-machine power systemis improved and critical clearing time of the disturbance isalso increased In this work the proposed scheme is verifiedfrom MATLAB package It has been also observed thatpole-shifting controller based CSC-STATCOM can be morereliable and very effective rather than other shunt FACTSdevices (SVC and VSC-STATCOM) in terms of oscillationdamping CCT and transient stability of a multimachinepower system So finally it can be said that CSC basedSTATCOM can be regarded as an alternative FACTS deviceto that of other shunt FACTS devices

3 Two-Area Power System withCSC-STATCOM Facts Device

In this section consider a two-area power systemwith a CSC-STATCOMat bus 119887 is connected through a long transmissionsystem where CSC-STATCOM is used as a shunt currentsource device Figure 3 shows this type of representationThe dynamic model of the machine with a CSC-STATCOMcan be written in the differential algebraic equation form asfollows

120575 = 120596 (16)

Figure 3 A single line diagramof two-area power systemwithCSC-STATCOM

Here for calculation of 119875csc119890

we assume the CSC-STATCOM works in capacitive mode Then the injectedcurrent fromCSC-STATCOM to test system can bewritten as

119868csc = 119868cscang (120579119887119900 minus 90∘) (18)

where 120579119887119900 is the voltage angle at bus 119887 in absentia of CSC-STATCOM In Figure 3 the magnitude (119864119889) and angle (120579119887)of voltage at bus 119887 can be computed as

120579119887 = tanminus1 [ 119883

From (20) it can be said that the voltage magnitude ofbus 119887 (119864

119889) depends on the STATCOM current (119868csc) In (17)

the electrical output power 119875csc119890

Finally using (20) and (21) the total electrical output (119875119890)

of machine with CSC-STATCOM can be written as

(22)

All above equations are represented for the capacitivemode of CSC-STATCOM So if the inductive mode ofoperation is needed in the system then 119868csc is replaced by minus119868cscin (18) (20) and (22) With the help of (17) the power-anglecurve of the test system can be drawn for stability analysis asshown in Figure 4

The power-angle (119875-120575) curve of the test system withouta CSC-STATCOM is represented by curve 119860 (also calledprefault condition) in Figure 4 Here the mechanical inputis 119875119898 electrical output is 119875

119890 and initial angle is 120575

0 When a

fault occurs 119875119890suddenly decreases and the operation shifts

from point 119886 to point 119887 at curve 119861 and thus the machinestarts accelerating from point 119887 to point 119888 where acceleratingpower [119875

119886= (119875119898minus 119875119890)] gt 0 At fault clearing 119875

119890suddenly

increases and the area 119886-119887-119888-119889-119886 represents the acceleratingarea 119860

119886as defined in (23) If the CSC-STATCOM operates

in a capacitive mode (at fault clearing) 119875119890increases to point

119890 at curve 119862 (also called postfault condition) At this time119875119886is negative Thus the machine starts decelerating but its

angle continues to increase from point 119890 to the point119891 until itreaches a maximum allowable value 120575119898 at point 119891 for systemstability The area 119890-119891-119892-119889-119890 represents the decelerating area119860119889 as defined in (23) From previous literature [1] equal areacriterion for stability of the system can be written as

This equation is generated from Figure 4 where 120575119888is

critical clearing angle 119875119901119890is an electrical output for postfault

condition 119875119891119890is an electrical output during fault condition

From Figure 4 we clearly see for capacitive mode operation(119868csc gt 0) of CSC-STATCOMdevice the119875-120575 curve is not onlyuplifted but also displaced toward right and that enduesmore

decelerating area and hence higher stability limit After thatSection 4 is considered to verify the impact of the proposedcontroller based CSC-STATCOMmodeling in the analysis ofthemultimachine power system stability in terms of transientstability studies

42 Case ImdashShort-Circuit Fault In this case it is consideredthat a three-phase fault is occurring at near bus B1 at 119905 =

provided in Table 1 Clearly shown CCT for test system isbetter due to the impact of pole-shifting controller basedCSC-STATCOM Hence the performance of the proposedscheme is still satisfactory in this case

44 Case IIImdashA Comparative Study In order to show therobustness performance of the proposed scheme for improv-ing the transient stability of the system after this obtainedoutcomes from the proposed pole-shifting controller basedCSC-STATCOM are compared to the obtained outcomesfrom the other shunt FACTS devices (SVC and VSC basedSTATCOM)which have been used in somemost cited papers[23 24] In this case it has been assumed that the test systemis same for all shunt FACTS devices and all shunt FACTSdevices have the same rating (200Mvar) After this we checkthe impact of these shunt FACTS devices on the test systemwith three-phase fault condition The obtained simulationresults with these shunt FACTS devices are compared inFigure 16 In this figure system with SVC is reached inunstable condition Here three-phase fault duration is 01 sto 0285 s CCT for the system with different shunt FACTS

devices is shown in Table 2 If heavy loading condition isapplied during 01 s to 0486 s in this case then effect of thisdisturbance is shown in Figure 17 In all figures of Figures 16and 17 multimachine power system with proposed topologybased CSC-STATCOM is continuing stable condition Inthese figures the oscillations are damped more quickly andsettled down after 3 to 4 sec by proposed topology basedCSC-STATCOM in comparison to other devices In this com-parative study transient stability margin is also increased byincreasing the CCT with the help of CSC-STATCOM devicefrom Table 2 Clearly waveforms show that CSC-STATCOMis more effective and robust performance than that of othershunt FACTS devices (SVC and VSC-STATCOM) in termsof oscillation damping settling time CCT and transient sta-bility of the multimachine power system in Figures 16 and 17

5 Conclusions

In this paper the dynamic modeling of CSC based STAT-COM is studied and proposed pole-shifting controller for thebest input-output response of CSC-STATCOM is presentedin order to enhance the system transient stability of themultimachine power system with the different disturbancesThe novelty in proposed approach lies in the fact thattransient stability of a two-area four-machine power systemis improved and critical clearing time of the disturbance isalso increased In this work the proposed scheme is verifiedfrom MATLAB package It has been also observed thatpole-shifting controller based CSC-STATCOM can be morereliable and very effective rather than other shunt FACTSdevices (SVC and VSC-STATCOM) in terms of oscillationdamping CCT and transient stability of a multimachinepower system So finally it can be said that CSC basedSTATCOM can be regarded as an alternative FACTS deviceto that of other shunt FACTS devices

All above equations are represented for the capacitivemode of CSC-STATCOM So if the inductive mode ofoperation is needed in the system then 119868csc is replaced by minus119868cscin (18) (20) and (22) With the help of (17) the power-anglecurve of the test system can be drawn for stability analysis asshown in Figure 4

The power-angle (119875-120575) curve of the test system withouta CSC-STATCOM is represented by curve 119860 (also calledprefault condition) in Figure 4 Here the mechanical inputis 119875119898 electrical output is 119875

119890 and initial angle is 120575

0 When a

fault occurs 119875119890suddenly decreases and the operation shifts

from point 119886 to point 119887 at curve 119861 and thus the machinestarts accelerating from point 119887 to point 119888 where acceleratingpower [119875

119886= (119875119898minus 119875119890)] gt 0 At fault clearing 119875

119890suddenly

increases and the area 119886-119887-119888-119889-119886 represents the acceleratingarea 119860

119886as defined in (23) If the CSC-STATCOM operates

in a capacitive mode (at fault clearing) 119875119890increases to point

119890 at curve 119862 (also called postfault condition) At this time119875119886is negative Thus the machine starts decelerating but its

angle continues to increase from point 119890 to the point119891 until itreaches a maximum allowable value 120575119898 at point 119891 for systemstability The area 119890-119891-119892-119889-119890 represents the decelerating area119860119889 as defined in (23) From previous literature [1] equal areacriterion for stability of the system can be written as

This equation is generated from Figure 4 where 120575119888is

critical clearing angle 119875119901119890is an electrical output for postfault

condition 119875119891119890is an electrical output during fault condition

From Figure 4 we clearly see for capacitive mode operation(119868csc gt 0) of CSC-STATCOMdevice the119875-120575 curve is not onlyuplifted but also displaced toward right and that enduesmore

decelerating area and hence higher stability limit After thatSection 4 is considered to verify the impact of the proposedcontroller based CSC-STATCOMmodeling in the analysis ofthemultimachine power system stability in terms of transientstability studies

4 Simulation Results

41 Multimachine Power System under Study In this sectiontwo-area four-machine power system is considered for thetest system study For this type of test system a 500 kVtransmission system with four hydraulic power plants (G1G2 G3 and G4) connected through 500-km long transmis-sion line is taken as shown in Figure 5 Here combinationof machine G1 and machine G2 represents the area 1 andcombination of machine G3 and machine G4 representsthe area 2 A rating of first (G1) and second (G2) powergeneration plant is 138 kv1000MVA The electrical outputsof the third (G3) and fourth (G4) power plant are 3000MVAOne 6000MW large resistive load is connected at the busB3 and another 1000MW resistive load is connected atthe bus B1 as shown in Figure 5 In this figure 828MWpower is flowing through bus B2 944MW and 877MWpower are flowing through buses B4 and B5 respectively and2487MW and 2643MW power are flowing through busesB6 and B7 respectively These values are based on powerflow calculation To improve the transient stability of thetest-system after disturbances (faults or heavy loading) apole-shifting controller based CSC-STATCOM is connectedat the mid-point of transmission line (at bus B2) In orderto previous work [27] shunt FACTS devices give maximumefficiency when connected at the mid-point of transmissionline Here each hydraulic generating unit is assembled witha turbine-governor set excitation system and synchronousgenerator But the hydraulic generating unit is not explainedin this paperThis is explained in [1] All the data required forthis test system model are given in the appendix

Now a severe contingency will be applied to the test sys-tem and to observe the impact of the pole-shifting controllerbased CSC-STATCOM for maintaining the system stabilitythrough MATLABSIMULINK

42 Case ImdashShort-Circuit Fault In this case it is consideredthat a three-phase fault is occurring at near bus B1 at 119905 =

01 s and is cleared at 0277 s The impact of system with andwithout CSC based STATCOM to this disturbance is shownin Figures 6 7 8 9 and 10 Here simulation is carried outfor 9 s to observe the nature of transients It is clear thatthe system without CSC-STATCOM is unstable upon theclearance of the fault from Figures 6 to 8 But this systemwithpole-shifting controller based CSC-STATCOM is restoredand stable upon the clearance of the fault and settled downafter about 3 to 4 s in Figures 7 to 10 Synchronism in betweenfour machine system is also maintained in these figures InFigure 7 1205751 1205752 1205753 and 120575

Figure 6 System response without CSC-STATCOM for a three-phase fault (case I)

is represented by 1205961 1205962 1205963 and 1205964 respectively Here thecritical clearing time (CCT) of fault is also found out for thetest system stability by simulationThe fault time is increasedin simulation to find the critical stability margin thus CCTis obtained CCT is defined as the maximal fault durationfor which the system remains transiently stable [1] CCT ofthe fault for the system with and without CSC-STATCOMis 325ms and 276ms respectively as shown in Table 1 So itshows that CCT of fault is also increased due to the impactof pole-shifting controller based CSC-STATCOM Clearlywaveforms show that proposed topology ismore effective androbust performance than that of the without pole-shifting

provided in Table 1 Clearly shown CCT for test system isbetter due to the impact of pole-shifting controller basedCSC-STATCOM Hence the performance of the proposedscheme is still satisfactory in this case

44 Case IIImdashA Comparative Study In order to show therobustness performance of the proposed scheme for improv-ing the transient stability of the system after this obtainedoutcomes from the proposed pole-shifting controller basedCSC-STATCOM are compared to the obtained outcomesfrom the other shunt FACTS devices (SVC and VSC basedSTATCOM)which have been used in somemost cited papers[23 24] In this case it has been assumed that the test systemis same for all shunt FACTS devices and all shunt FACTSdevices have the same rating (200Mvar) After this we checkthe impact of these shunt FACTS devices on the test systemwith three-phase fault condition The obtained simulationresults with these shunt FACTS devices are compared inFigure 16 In this figure system with SVC is reached inunstable condition Here three-phase fault duration is 01 sto 0285 s CCT for the system with different shunt FACTS

devices is shown in Table 2 If heavy loading condition isapplied during 01 s to 0486 s in this case then effect of thisdisturbance is shown in Figure 17 In all figures of Figures 16and 17 multimachine power system with proposed topologybased CSC-STATCOM is continuing stable condition Inthese figures the oscillations are damped more quickly andsettled down after 3 to 4 sec by proposed topology basedCSC-STATCOM in comparison to other devices In this com-parative study transient stability margin is also increased byincreasing the CCT with the help of CSC-STATCOM devicefrom Table 2 Clearly waveforms show that CSC-STATCOMis more effective and robust performance than that of othershunt FACTS devices (SVC and VSC-STATCOM) in termsof oscillation damping settling time CCT and transient sta-bility of the multimachine power system in Figures 16 and 17

5 Conclusions

In this paper the dynamic modeling of CSC based STAT-COM is studied and proposed pole-shifting controller for thebest input-output response of CSC-STATCOM is presentedin order to enhance the system transient stability of themultimachine power system with the different disturbancesThe novelty in proposed approach lies in the fact thattransient stability of a two-area four-machine power systemis improved and critical clearing time of the disturbance isalso increased In this work the proposed scheme is verifiedfrom MATLAB package It has been also observed thatpole-shifting controller based CSC-STATCOM can be morereliable and very effective rather than other shunt FACTSdevices (SVC and VSC-STATCOM) in terms of oscillationdamping CCT and transient stability of a multimachinepower system So finally it can be said that CSC basedSTATCOM can be regarded as an alternative FACTS deviceto that of other shunt FACTS devices

provided in Table 1 Clearly shown CCT for test system isbetter due to the impact of pole-shifting controller basedCSC-STATCOM Hence the performance of the proposedscheme is still satisfactory in this case

44 Case IIImdashA Comparative Study In order to show therobustness performance of the proposed scheme for improv-ing the transient stability of the system after this obtainedoutcomes from the proposed pole-shifting controller basedCSC-STATCOM are compared to the obtained outcomesfrom the other shunt FACTS devices (SVC and VSC basedSTATCOM)which have been used in somemost cited papers[23 24] In this case it has been assumed that the test systemis same for all shunt FACTS devices and all shunt FACTSdevices have the same rating (200Mvar) After this we checkthe impact of these shunt FACTS devices on the test systemwith three-phase fault condition The obtained simulationresults with these shunt FACTS devices are compared inFigure 16 In this figure system with SVC is reached inunstable condition Here three-phase fault duration is 01 sto 0285 s CCT for the system with different shunt FACTS

devices is shown in Table 2 If heavy loading condition isapplied during 01 s to 0486 s in this case then effect of thisdisturbance is shown in Figure 17 In all figures of Figures 16and 17 multimachine power system with proposed topologybased CSC-STATCOM is continuing stable condition Inthese figures the oscillations are damped more quickly andsettled down after 3 to 4 sec by proposed topology basedCSC-STATCOM in comparison to other devices In this com-parative study transient stability margin is also increased byincreasing the CCT with the help of CSC-STATCOM devicefrom Table 2 Clearly waveforms show that CSC-STATCOMis more effective and robust performance than that of othershunt FACTS devices (SVC and VSC-STATCOM) in termsof oscillation damping settling time CCT and transient sta-bility of the multimachine power system in Figures 16 and 17

5 Conclusions

In this paper the dynamic modeling of CSC based STAT-COM is studied and proposed pole-shifting controller for thebest input-output response of CSC-STATCOM is presentedin order to enhance the system transient stability of themultimachine power system with the different disturbancesThe novelty in proposed approach lies in the fact thattransient stability of a two-area four-machine power systemis improved and critical clearing time of the disturbance isalso increased In this work the proposed scheme is verifiedfrom MATLAB package It has been also observed thatpole-shifting controller based CSC-STATCOM can be morereliable and very effective rather than other shunt FACTSdevices (SVC and VSC-STATCOM) in terms of oscillationdamping CCT and transient stability of a multimachinepower system So finally it can be said that CSC basedSTATCOM can be regarded as an alternative FACTS deviceto that of other shunt FACTS devices
