Abstract:

Before commissioning, SVG first requires a separated excitation process: network voltage charges the capacitor on DC side in each H-bridge power module via the starting resistor (IGBT in all modules shall lock impulse). After charging, SVG has enough power for dynamic var compensation of the system. This paper introduces fundamental functions of the starting resistor in SVG, analyzes the influence of starting resistor selection on safe operation of the device, raises the principle of selection and conducts simulation verification by using of PSCAD.
