Assessment of Series Compensator for Ferroresonance Damping in Power System

Article Preview

Abstract:

Nowadays power quality is a critical issue in power system. Moreover the connection of three-phase transformers through underground cables is growing fast in residential, commercial, industrial and rural applications. Due to this increasing situation, the possibilities of having a series connected capacitance and a non-linear inductance, and hence ferroresonance, become more probable. Ferroresonance can also occur in power transformers or reactors by capacitive coupling from neighbouring phases or lines. It is necessary to have a general idea about what would be the best preventive decisions to take in order to avoid unexpected surprises. It is necessary to have an accurate ferroresonance model so that a device that can smoothen the sharp effects of ferroresonance can be found. In this paper, the FACTS device, namely the static synchronous series compensator (SSSC) had been used to mitigate ferroresonance. Results show that using SSSC dramatically decreases and mitigates the ferroresonance shock as well as the instabilities of the network.
