Simulation and Analysis of Static Var Compensator with Matlab (original) (raw)

The static var compensator (SVC) is one of the FACTS (flexible AC transmission system) controllers which is widely used to improve power systems transient stability because of its inherent role in controlling the active and reactive power flows in electrical transmission lines. This paper presents an application of (SVC) in electrical transmission lines by simulating a single-machine infinite-bus power system to study the dynamic response and observing the impact of the SVC for stabilizing the network during a voltage variation using Matlab/Simulink® environment.
