Discussion of "A thyristor-controlled series compensator model for the power flow solution of practical power networks"

The author comments on the paper by C. R. Fuerte-Esquivel et al (see ibid., vol.15, p.58-64, 2000), pointing out that the model proposed is basically the same as one previously proposed by himself and Z. T. Faur (see ibid., vol.14, p.158-65, 1999). Certain issues were not discussed in the paper by Canizares, hence the author requests the views and experience of Fuerte-Esquivel et al. in the areas raised.
