Improvement the Performance of the Power System by using an TCSC Device

This paper presents the performances of the Thyristor Controlled Series Compensator (TCSC) in controlling the loading under various perturbations that may occur in the transmission power system. By controlling the line reactance, TCSC is indirectly contributing to the enhancement of the loading capability of the transmission network. Simulations were performed on the test network called TEST2 using the EUROSTAG software. Both static and dynamic simulations were performed, while analyzing the voltage control and the change in the active power under various disturbances, as well as the power losses under steady-state.
