Overview of series connected flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS)
2013 North American Power Symposium (NAPS), 2013Static series compensation devices provide additional flexibility in the operation of transmission lines. Many articles have been published in literature which demonstrate how static series connected FACTS devices can solve numerous power system problems. However, they are not widely utilized in the power industry.

Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) controllers: an overview
International Journal of Energy Technology and Policy, 2006Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) controllers are being used in the power systems from the 1970s with the objective of improving system dynamic performance. Due to the environmental, right-of-way, and cost problems in both bundled and unbundled power systems, many of transmission line have been forced to operate in almost their full capacities ...

Flexible AC transmission systems. Part 4: Advanced FACTS controllers
Power Engineering Journal, 1998This tutorial examines advanced FACTS controllers based on the use of turn-on turn-off power semiconductors such as GTOs and MCTs. GTOs are the only commercially available power semiconductor suitable for large advanced FACTS controllers applicable to electric power transmission.

A flexible ac transmission system (FACTS) for balancing arc furnace loads
Electric Power Systems Research, 1997Abstract A flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) is a proposed new technique for balancing unbalanced three phase arc furnace loads. Although reactances of conductors can be balanced by traditional methods, the method proposed here is a unique method for balancing inevitably unbalanced arc resistances.

Abstract Renewable energy growing is considered one of the main sources of the system harmonics. Thus, in this paper, Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is reduced by using flexible AC transmission systems (FACTs). Static Compensator (STATCOM) and Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC) are used and compared against basic harmonics ...

Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS)
1996Transmission and distribution systems are at the beginning an era of significant change — an era that is technology-driven by microelectronics (computers and microprocessors), communications, and power electronics. The combined impact of these technologies makes the era unique and important for both transmission and distribution systems, by making them

Control Options in Power System Operation by Use of Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS)
IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1993Abstract Recently, devices known as FACTS (Flexible AC Transmission systems) specially designed to introduce more “flexibility” both in normal and emergency operation of an electric power system have been proposed in the literature. The flexibility is related to the direct control (both local and centralised) of both active and reactive power.
