EEE 4-1 FACTS Important Topics 

Preamble: 

Flexible Alternating Current Transmission System controllers have become a part of modern power 
system. It is important for the student to understand the principle of operation of series and shunt 
compensators by using power electronics. As the heart of many power electronic controllers is a voltage 
source converter (VSC), the student should be acquainted with the operation and control of VSC. The 
modern power electronic controllers are also introduced. 


Course Objectives: 

x To learn the basics of power flow control in transmission lines using FACTS controllers
x To explain operation and control of voltage source converter.
x To learn the method of shunt compensation using static VAR compensators. 
x To learn the methods of compensation using series compensators 
x To explain operation of Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) and Interline Power flow 
Controller (IPFC).

Current Source Converter (CSC)-Three–phase current source converter – Comparison of current source 
converter with voltage source converter. 

UNIT - III 

Shunt Compensators 
Objectives – Mid–point voltage regulation for line segmentation – End of line voltage support to prevent 
voltage instability – Improvement of transient stability – Power oscillation damping. 
Variable Impedance Type VAR Generator: Thyristor Switched/Controlled Reactor (TSR/TCR) –
Thyristor Switched Capacitor (TSC) – Fixed Capacitor–Thyristor Controlled Reactor (FC-TCR) -

UNIT - IV 

Series Compensators
Concept of series capacitive compensation – Improvement of transient stability – Power oscillation 
damping – Functional requirements. Variable Impedance type series compensators – GTO Thyristor 
controlled Series Capacitor (GSC) – Thyristor Switched Series Capacitor (TSSC) and Thyristor 
Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC) - Switching Converter type Series Compensation – Static 
Synchronous Series Compensator.

UNIT - V 

Combined Compensators 
Schematic and basic operating principles of unified power flow controller (UPFC) and Interline power 
flow controller (IPFC) – Controller applications of transmission lines. 


Course Outcomes: 

After the completion of the course the student should be able to: 
x Know the concepts of facts controller and power flow control in transmission line. 
x Demonstrate operation and control of voltage source converter and know the concepts current 
source converter. 
x Analyse compensation by using different compensators to improve stability and reduce power 
oscillations in the transmission lines. 
x Know the concepts methods of compensations using series compensators. 
x Analyse operation of Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) and Interline power flow controller 
(IPFC).
