Abstract

Power quality refers to the degree to which a system facilitates the consistent operation of its loads. An occurrence of power disturbance can entail fluctuations in voltage, current, or frequency. Within the scope of this paper, a subset of FACT controllers is examined, and their performance is assessed through simulation using Simulink software, considering both steady-state and dynamic effects. The simulation employs detailed and average models, encompassing simple systems to demonstrate performance. This study emphasizes the importance of analyzing both types of controllers, a task undertaken within this research effort.
