Problems of the Regional Energetics (Apr 2016)
Contribution of FACTS to the Electric Energy Quality in Distribution Systems
Abstract
Limitation of electromagnetic disturbances occurring in industrial processes and improving power quality are major concerns of professionals in the energy sector. The goal of the work consists in emphasizing the power quality problems incurred due to equipment, which causes disturbances in electricity distribution networks, and highlightes solutions for their effective functioning. The paper presents an application using specialized software to analyze power grids in order to create an overview of solutions for efficient operation of the distribution system in case when a user determines fluctuations of electrical supply voltage. The work aims verifying the connection of a STATCOM to limit disturbances, the data will be validated by experimental tests.
