Abstract

Power quality is now a major issue in homes, industry and agriculture as an inductive form such as single-phase and three-phase induction engines, pump station, computer fan engine, etc. The load is needed in this reactive current and the source provides the lagging current requested. Thus, that reactive power requirement increases and that active power also depends on it. So that, the power factor also decreases which causes the distribution system to increase the burden. Therefore, This paper improved power quality performance using Distribution Static Compensator (DSTATCOM) using the MATLAB Simulation tool which improves quality of power issues in the distribution network system. DSTATCOM is Facts device which is used in a distribution network system for quality of power conditioning. DSTATCOM is source and sink of reactive power demanded to a different type of non-linear load also Power quality is enhanced, Total Harmonic Distortion of source current (THD) of source current is reduced. DSTATCOM mitigates voltage flicker, swell, sag and spikes, which provides reactive power current to the distribution system. That reactive power control using the current injection from source to DSTATCOM. Working of DSTATCOM by taking the theory of IRP for nonlinear and unbalanced is evaluated by using the result of simulation done in the MATLAB.
