Abstract :
This paper discusses the mitigation of power quality disturbance in low voltage distribution system due to voltage swells using one of the powerful power custom devices namely Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR). The DVR normally installed between the source voltage and critical or sensitive load. The new configuration of DVR has been proposed using improved d-q-o controller technique.. The simulations are performed using Matlab/Simulink´s SimPower Toolbox. The proposal is then implemented using 5KVA DVR experimental setup. The simulation and experimental results demonstrate the effective dynamic performance of the proposed configuration.
