Abstract

In this research, an enhanced intelligent FACTS device for reduction of losses on power lines using intelligent Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC) devices for Nigerian 330kv network has been presented. The findings showed total real power losses of 127.9131MW before network compensation, with transmission lines accounting for 125.7MW and producing stations accounting for 2.2131MW. After compensation using Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC), the total Real power losses were reduces to 104.53MW, while the total Reactive losses (MVar) reduced to 26.87MVar. The research concludes that the injection of reactive power by Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC) devices compensates for the drop in voltage, leading to improvement in voltage and reduces power losses for the network.
