Abstract

stability limits due to economics and environmental reason and due to of this, the secure operation of power system is very important and challenging issue. A system enters a state of voltage instability when a disturbance occurs, increase in load demand & change in system conditions because of voltage collapse. Based on review, to compensate this problem the SVC is used in transmission system. These papers investigate the effect of Static Var Compensator (SVC) on voltage stability and improvement of that stability in power system. In this paper shunt FACTS devices SVC is used in a transmission line for improving a voltage profile and stability. MATLAB Simulink platform has been used in this study. The voltage at various buses is calculated and weak buses are identified to place the FACTS devices to improve the voltage stability limits are analyzed before and after the placement of svc.
