Abstract

In this paper, an implementation of three phase synchronous reference frame (SRF) theory based control algorithm for functions of DSTATCOM in power factor correction (PFC) under nonlinear distribution system. A SRF theory based control algorithm is used for extraction of fundamental active and reactive power components of load currents. These components are used for estimation of reference source currents. The DSTATCOM is developed in three phase system and its real time performance is studied using MATLAB Simulink. The performance of DSTATCOM is found satisfactory with proposed control algorithm for nonlinear distribution system.
