            Abstract : 
This paper aims to present a comparative analysis of a computationally implemented model of an Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) and an ASC (Advanced Series Compensator) through case studies. To do so, a description its principle of operation and mathematical modeling, comprehending the series and parallel compensators, is given so that the control objectives can be determined using the vector theory.
