Power quality has been a big problem for
both energy suppliers and their consumers. For
consumers, the economic effects of power disturbances
will vary from few hundred dollars for the restoration or
removal of home equipment to millions of dollars for the
lack of manufacturing and cleaning. In the case of
services, system failures will lead to consumer
frustration, loading and income losses.Generalised
unified power quality conditioner (GUPQC) is the
modern custom power device which deals with voltage
and current imperfections simultaneously in three bus or
feeder distribution systems. This paper presents
modelling, analysis and simulation of GUPQC consisting
of one Distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM)
and two Dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) has been made
to compensate the first feeder current imperfections and
second & third bus voltage imperfections. Instantaneous
active and reactive theory (PQ) based control strategy is
used for DSTATCOM and Unit vector template theory
based control strategy is used for DVR. The results
obtained in SIMULINK on a three bus or feeder
distribution systems show the effectiveness of the
proposed configuration.
