Abstract : Interconnected transmibion system provides a wide scope for power sharing thereby avoiding chances of overloading in transmibion lines. But this can be achieved only with proper control on the transmibion network. The aim of this work is to improve the real power flow in the transmibion lines by varying the transmibion line reactance. Real power flow can be improved by series compensation using a Static Series Compensator (SSC). A fixed capacitor connected in series with the transmibion line can effectively reduce the transmibion line reactance thereby improving real power flow. But series compensation using a capacitor can provide only fixed compensation, a smooth variation in reactance cannot be achieved. In this paper a Thyristor Controlled Static Series Compensator (TCSC) is used for controlling the power flow in the transmibion line. Open loop control of TCSC by varying the firing angle is simulated using MATLAB. A hardware implementation of TCSC to analyse the power flow control is deployed in a 2-bus system. © 2016 IEEE.
