PERFORMANCE INVESTIGATION OF TCSC SYSTEM FOR 400 KV RAIPUR-ROURKELA LINE, THROUGH SIMULATION
Keywords:
Thyristor-Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC), FACTS, Sub-Synchronous Resonance (SSR).Abstract
Thyristor-Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC)is one of the members of FACTS device family which is used to enhance power transfer capability of the transmission line, Sub synchronous resonance (SSR) Mitigation, Power oscillation damping and improvement in Transient stability of the power system. Present paper is an attempt to investigate system performance of TCSC for closed loop control of TCSC systems installed in India on Raipur-Rourkela, 400kV, double circuit line. PSCAD software based Simulation tests are carried out and the effectiveness of the Raipur located TCSC system is investigated under fault condition.
