Abstract :
Two types of controllable reactive power generator are discussed. One is static var compensator (called as SVC) and the other is static synchronous compensator (called as STATCOM) whose performance is higher than SVC at a view point of a continuous controllability of reactive power and response time. In this paper, basic principle of STATCOM operation and the functions of each component are explained. 30 kVA STATCOM system is practically to develop a cost-effective and compact compensator. Its basic operating characteristics are verified by the simulation
