Abstract

This paper presents an investigation to the dynamic performance of a PI-type controlled STATCOM for various faulty conditions as well as for different system short circuit ratios SCR. Furthermore, the performance of the STATCOM is thereby simulated using the PSCAD/EMTDC software. The obtained results reveal superior dynamic performance and reduced system short circuit ratio SCR.
