Flexible AC Transmission Using TSR By IJISRT

Abstract

The project uses Thyristor Switch Reactance, or TSR, to achieve FACTS. When charging the transmission line, it is done when there is very little or no load at the receiving end. Due to the low load, the transmission line has minimal current flow, which highlights the shunt capacitance. The voltage at the receiving end increases two times more than the voltage at the sending end as a result of this voltage amplification, or Ferranti Effect. Shunt inductors are consequently automatically linked across the transmission line as a compensatory measure.
