Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor with Automatic Control

An increasingly competitive market where economic and environmental pressures limit their scope to expand transmission facilities.The optimization of transmission corridors for power transfer has become a great importance. In this scenario, the FACTS technology is an attractive option for increasing system operation flexibility [1] , New developments in high-current, high-power electronics are making it possible to control electronically the power flows on the high voltage side of the network during both steady state and transient operation
