Abstract :
This paper introduces a detailed model for the inverter-based shunt reactive power compensator. The proposed model of the STATic COMpensator (STATCOM) consists of two six-pulse converters connected in series on the ac side. The phase control technique is implemented. The main parts of the compensator system are modeled as separate parts. So, the model can be used as a benchmark model for power system studies including the STATCOM using the ATPdraw version of the ElectroMagnetic Transients Program (EMTP-ATP). The proposed model verification has been undertaken by the use of published results..
