SVC and STATCOM

Comparison of SVC and STATCOM

Introduction: SVC and STATCOM are two types of FACTS devices that can provide dynamic reactive power compensation and voltage support for power systems. SVC and STATCOM have similar objectives and functions, but they have different structures and principles, which result in different features and characteristics. Therefore, it is important to understand the differences and similarities […]

Harmonics in Power System

Harmonics in Power System: generation and hazards of Harmonics.

The root cause of harmonic generation in power systems is non-linear loads. When the current flows through the load, it does not have a linear relationship with the applied voltage, and a non-sinusoidal current is formed, thereby generating harmonics. The harmonic frequency is an integer multiple of the fundamental frequency. According to the analysis principle
