Abstract :
The UPFC is the most versatile and complex power
electronic equipment that has emerged for the control and
optimization of power flow in electrical power transmission
systems. It offers major potential advantages for the static and
dynamic operation of transmission lines, hut it brings with it
major design challenges, both in the power electronics and from
the perspective of the power system. As the UPFC transitions
from concept to full-scale power system implementation, the
control and protection of this sophisticated equipment are of
primary concern. This paper describes the basic control,
sequencing and protection philosophies that govern the
operation of the UPFC, subject to the practical constraints
encountered in an actual high power installation. The operation
of the UPFC is illustrated with representative results from a
TNA study, undertaken jointly by the Electric Power Research
Institute (EPRI), Western Area Power Administration (WAPA)
and Westinghouse Science and Technology Center (STC).
