Abstract

Flexible Alternating Current Transmission Systems (FACTS) devices represent a recent technological development in electrical power systems. FACTS devices offer so many advantages like transient stability improvement, sub-synchronous resonance (SSR) alleviation, damping of power swings, avoiding voltage collapse, enhancing power system consistency, minimize the loss in power system. Though FACTS controllers offer many advantages, their installation cost is very high. Hence the best placement and the optimal parameter settings of these devices in the power system are of important issues. In this paper various methods to find optimal location of thyristor controlled series capacitor (TCSC) to reduce the loss in power system is discussed.
