Preface
Although the basic concepts of reactive powercontrolinpowersystems remain
unchanged, state-of-the-art developments associated with power electronics equip-
ment are dictating new ways in which such control may be achieved not only in high-
voltage transmission systems but also in low-voltage distribution systems. The book
addresses, therefore, not only the fundamental concepts associated with the topic of
reactive powercontrol but also presents the latest equipment and devices together
with new application areas and associated computer-assisted studies.
The book offers a solid theoretical foundation for the electroniccontrol of active
and reactive power. The material gives an overview of the composition of electrical
power networks; a basic description of the most popular powersystems studies and
indicates, within the context of the power system, where the Flexible Alternating
Current Transmission Systems (FACTS) and Custom Power equipment belong.
FACTS relies on state-of-the-art powerelectronic devices and methods applied on
the high-voltage side of the power network to make it electronically controllable.
From the operational point of view, it is concerned with the ability to control the
path of power flows throughout the network in an adaptive fashion. This equipment
has the ability to control the line impedance and the nodal voltage magnitudes and
angles at both the sending and receiving ends of key transmission corridors while
enhancing the security of the system.
Custom Power focuses on low-voltage distribution systems. This technology is a
response to reports of poor power quality and reliability of supply to factories, offices
and homes. Today's automated equipment and production lines require reliable and
high quality power, and cannot tolerate voltage sags, swells, harmonic distortions,
impulses or interruptions.
Chapter 1 gives an overview of electricalpower networks. The main plant compo-
nents of the power network are described, together with the new generation of power
network controllers, which use state-of-the-art power electronics technology to give
the power network utmost operational flexibility and an almost instantaneous speed
of response. The chapter also describes the main computer assisted studies used by
power systems engineers in the planning, management and operation of the network.
Chapter 2 provides a broad review of the basic theoretical principles of
power engineering, with relevant examples of AC circuit analysis, per-unit systems,
three-phase systems, transformer connections, power measurement and other topics.
It covers the basic precepts of power and frequency control, voltage control and load
balancing, and provides a basic understanding of the reactive compensation of loads.
//SYS21/F:/PEC/REVISES_10-11-01/075065126-CH000-PRELIMS.3D ± 12 ± [1±12/12] 17.11.2001 5:49PM
Chapter 3 reviews the principles of transmission system compensation including
shunt and series compensation and the behaviour of long transmission lines and cables.
Chapter 4 addresses the mathematical modelling of the electricalpower network
suitable for steady state analysis. Emphasis is placed on the modelling of plant
components used to control active and reactive power flows, voltage magnitude
and network impedance in high-voltage transmission. The model of the power net-
work is the classical non-linear model, based on voltage-dependent nodal power
equations and solved by iteration using the Newton±Raphson method. The basic
method is then expanded to encompass the models of the new generation of power
systems controllers. The new models are simple and yet comprehensive.
Chapter 5 introduces the power semiconductor devices and their characteristics as
part of a powerelectronic system. It discusses the desired characteristics to be found
in an ideal switch and provides information on components, power semiconductor
device protection, hardware issues of converters and future trends.
Chapter 6 covers in detail the thyristor-based powerelectronic equipment used in
power systems for reactive power control. It provides essential background theory to
understand its principle of operation and basic analytical expression for assessing its
switching behaviour. It then presents basic powerelectronic equipment built with
voltage-source converters. These include single-phase and three-phase circuits along
with square wave and pulse-width modulation control. It discusses the basic concepts of
multilevel converters, which are used in high powerelectronic equipment. Energy stor-
age systems based on superconducting material and uninterruptible power supplies are
also presented. Towards the end of the chapter, conventional HVDC systems along
with VSC-based HVDC and active filtering equipment are also presented.
Chapter 7 deals with the all-important topic of powersystems harmonics. To a
greater or lesser extent all powerelectronic controllers generate harmonic currents,
but from the operator's perspective, and the end-user, these are parasitic or nuisance
effects. The book addresses the issue of powersystems harmonics with emphasis on
electronic compensation.
Chapter 8 provides basic information on how the industry standard software
package PSCAD/EMTDC can be used to simulate and study not only the periodic
steady state response of powerelectronic equipment but also their transient response.
Specifically, detailed simulation examples are presented of the Static Var compensa-
tor, thyristor controlled series compensator, STATCOM, solid-state transfer switch,
DVR and shunt-connected active filters based on the VSC concept.

systems ± an overview
1.1 Introduction
The main elements of an electricalpower system are generators, transformers,
transmission lines, loads and protection and control equipment. These elements are
interconnected so as to enable the generation of electricity in the most suitable
locations and in sufficient quantity to satisfy the customers' demand, to transmit it
to the load centres and to deliver good-quality electric energy at competitive prices.
The quality of the electricity supply may be measured in terms of:
.
constant voltage magnitude, e.g. no voltage sags
.
constant frequency
.
constant power factor
.
balanced phases
.
sinusoidal waveforms, e.g. no harmonic content
.
lack of interruptions
.
ability to withstand faults and to recover quickly.
1.2 Background
The last quarter of the nineteenth century saw the development of the electricity
supply industry as a new, promising and fast-growing activity. Since that time
electrical power networks have undergone immense transformations (Hingorani
and Gyugyi, 2000; Kundur, 1994). Owing to the relative `safety' and `cleanliness'
of electricity, it quickly became established as a means of delivering light, heat and
motive power. Nowadays it is closely linked to primary activities such as industrial
production, transport, communications and agriculture. Population growth, techno-
logical innovations and higher capital gains are just a few of the factors that have
maintained the momentum of the power industry.
//SYS21/F:/PEC/REVISES_10-11-01/075065126-CH001.3D ± 2 ± [1±30/30] 17.11.2001 9:43AM
Clearly it has not been easy for the power industry to reach its present status.
Throughout its development innumerable technical and economic problems have
been overcome, enabling the supply industry to meet the ever increasing demand
for energy with electricity at competitive prices. The generator, the incandescent
lamp and the industrial motor were the basis for the success of the earliest schemes.
Soon the transformer provided a means for improved efficiency of distribution so
that generation and transmission of alternating current over considerable distances
provided a major source of powerin industry and also in domestic applications.
For many decades the trend in electric power production has been towards an inter-
connected network of transmission lines linking generators and loads into large integ-
rated systems, some of which span entire continents. The main motivation has been to
take advantage of load diversity, enabling a better utilization of primary energy resour-
ces. It may be argued that interconnection provides an alternative to a limited amount
of generation thus enhancing the security of supply (Anderson and Fouad, 1977).
Interconnection was further enhanced, in no small measure, by early break-
throughs in high-current, high-power semiconductor valve technology. Thyristor-
based high voltage direct current (HVDC) converter installations provided a means
for interconnecting powersystems with different operating frequencies, e.g. 50/60 Hz,
for interconnecting powersystems separated by the sea, e.g. the cross-Channel link
between England and France, and for interconnecting weak and strong power
systems (Hingorani, 1996). The rectifier and inverter may be housed within the same
converter station (back-to-back) or they may be located several hundred kilometres
apart, for bulk-power, extra-long-distance transmission. The most recent develop-
ment in HVDC technology is the HVDC system based on solid state voltage source
converters (VSCs), which enables independent, fast control of active and reactive
powers (McMurray, 1987). This equipment uses insulated gate bipolar transistors
(IGBTs) or gate turn-off thyristors (GTOs) `valves' and pulse width modulation
(PWM) control techniques (Mohan et al., 1995). It should be pointed out that this
technology was first developed for applications in industrial drive systems for
improved motor speed control. Inpower transmission applications this technology
has been termed HVDC Light (Asplund et al., 1998) to differentiate it from the well-
established HVDC links based on thyristors and phase control (Arrillaga, 1999).
Throughout this book, the terms HVDC Light and HVDC based on VSCs are used
interchangeably.
Based on current and projected installations, a pattern is emerging as to where this
equipment will find widespread application: deregulated market applications in
primary distribution networks, e.g. the 138 kV link at Eagle Pass, interconnecting the
Mexican and Texas networks (Asplund, 2000). The 180 MVA Directlink in Australia,
interconnecting the Queensland and New South Wales networks, is another example.
Power electronics technology has affected every aspect of electrical power
networks; not just HVDC transmission but also generation, AC transmission,
distribution and utilization. At the generation level, thyristor-based automatic
voltage regulators (AVRs) have been introduced to enable large synchronous
generators to respond quickly and accurately to the demands of interconnected
environments. Power system stabilizers (PSSs) have been introduced to prevent
power oscillations from building up as a result of sympathetic interactions between
generators. For instance, several of the large generators in Scotland are fitted with

//SYS21/F:/PEC/REVISES_10-11-01/075065126-CH001.3D ± 3 ± [1±30/30] 17.11.2001 9:43AM
PSSs to ensure trouble-free operation between the Scottish power system and its
larger neighbour, the English power system (Fairnley et al., 1982). Deregulated
markets are imposing further demands on generating plant, increasing their wear
and tear and the likelihood of generator instabilities of various kinds, e.g. tran-
sient, dynamic, sub-synchronous resonance (SSR) and sub-synchronous torsional
interactions (SSTI). New powerelectronic controllers are being developed to help
generators operate reliably in the new market place. The thyristor-controlled
series compensator (TCSC) is being used to mitigate SSR, SSTI and to damp
power systems' oscillations (Larsen et al., 1992). Examples of where TCSCs have
been used to mitigate SSR are the TCSCs installed in the 500 kV Boneville Power
Administration's Slatt substation and in the 400 kV Swedish power network.
However, it should be noted that the primary function of the TCSC, like that of
its mechanically controlled counterpart, the series capacitor bank, is to reduce the
electrical length of the compensated transmission line. The aim is still to increase
power transfers significantly, but with increased transient stability margins.
A welcome result of deregulation of the electricity supply industry and open access
markets for electricity worldwide, is the opportunity for incorporating all forms of
renewable generation into the electricalpower network. The signatories of the Kyoto
agreement in 1997 set themselves a target to lower emission levels by 20% by 2010.
As a result of this, legislation has been enacted and, in many cases, tax incentives
have been provided to enable the connection of micro-hydro, wind, photovoltaic,
wave, tidal, biomass and fuel cell generators. The power generated by some of these
sources of electricity is suitable for direct input, via a step-up transformer, into the
AC distribution system. This is the case with micro-hydro and biomass generators.
Other sources generate electricity in DC form or in AC form but with large, random
variations which prevent direct connection to the grid; for example fuel cells and
asynchronous wind generators. In both cases, powerelectronic converters such as
VSCs provide a suitable means for connection to the grid.
In theory, the thyristor-based static var compensator (SVC) (Miller, 1982) could be
used to perform the functions of the PSS, while providing fast-acting voltage support
at the generating substation. In practice, owing to the effectiveness of the PSS and its
relative low cost, this has not happened. Instead, the high speed of response of the
SVC and its low maintenance cost have made it the preferred choice to provide
reactive power support at key points of the transmission system, far away from the
generators. For most practical purposes they have made the rotating synchronous
compensator redundant, except where an increase in the short-circuit level is required
along with fast-acting reactive power support. Even this niche application of rotating
synchronous compensators may soon disappear since a thyristor-controlled series
reactor (TCSR) could perform the role of providing adaptive short-circuit compen-
sation and, alongside, an SVC could provide the necessary reactive power support.
Another possibility is the displacement of not just the rotating synchronous com-
pensator but also the SVC by a new breed of static compensators (STATCOMs)
based on the use of VSCs. The STATCOM provides all the functions that the SVC
can provide but at a higher speed and, when the technology reaches full maturity, its
cost will be lower. It is more compact and requires only a fraction of the land
required by an SVC installation. The VSC is the basic building block of the new gener-
ation of power controllers emerging from flexible alternating current transmission
