Today, power quality is considered as a significant application. i) Highly effectual variable speed drive, ii) sophisticated electronic equipment together with iii) power electronic controller, is utilized to enhance power quality (PQ). Voltage sags are the prevalent PQ disturbances on the distribution system. It occurs on account of the faults developed in the electrical network or by the working of a huge induction motor. It is resolved by utilizing the conventional power device termed DVR (Dynamic Voltage Restorer). It is of small size and also low cost. It proffers quick dynamic response to the disturbance. A multifunctional DVR is utilized here to augment the PQ with the aid of P+ Resonant and Posicast controllers to remove the steady-state error (SSE) and enhance the transient response. Simulation outcome displays that the DVR enables to restrain the emergency scenarios of the distribution systems. The prevailing limitation reinstate the PCC (i.e. point of common coupling) (i.e. the bus to which every feeders are linked) voltage and Defend the DVR itself. The DVR performs as virtual impedance with the chief target of shielding the PCC voltage all through the downstream fault without affecting real power injection in the DVR which is the significant innovation discussed here.

In this paper, an incorporated bridge-type superconducting fault current limiter (BSFCL) and Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) is presented to improve the voltage quality and limiting fault current problems in distribution systems. In order to achieve these capabilities, the BSFCL and DVR are integrated through a common DC link as a BSFCL-DVR system. The FCL and DVR ports of the BSFCL-DVR system are located in the beginning and end of the sensitive loads’ feeder integrated to the point of common coupling (PCC) in the distribution system. At first, the principle operation of the BSFCL-DVR is discussed. Then, a control system for the BSFCL-DVR system is designed to enhance the voltage quality and limit the fault current. Eventually, the efficiency of the BSFCL-DVR system is verified through the PSCAD/EMTDC simulation.

Renewable energy sources provide the additional/satisfy the power to the consumer through power electronics interfaces and integrated with the grid. In grid integration power quality is one of the important parameter that need to be paying more attention. This proposed work focuses on power quality issues in a grid connected renewable energy system. Power quality issues will arises due to many factors here with the by introducing a fault condition in a grid connected renewable energy system the measurements were made at the point of common coupling and the mitigation is done with the help of a dynamic voltage restorer. The dynamic voltage restorer is a device which offers series compensation activated by neural network based controller. The sag improvement and the total harmonic assessment were made at the point of common coupling. Keywords: Neural network, Point of common coupling, Renewable energy source, Power quality, Dynamic voltage restorer ,electric grid.

Increased utilization of nonlinear loads in the power distribution system with profound integration of renewable energy requires improved power quality control. This paper proposes a Reformed Second Order Generalized Integrated (R-SOGI) control scheme for enhancing the output of the Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) for the objective of achieving the desired sinusoidal voltage wave shape at the common point of services and harmonic reduction. The DVR incorporates a Solar Photovoltaic (SPV) system using the Z-source Inverter (ZSI), providing the necessary active power to mitigate the voltage sag/swell and power demand. ZSI offers step-down as well as step-up abilities, it makes the converters to operate in the conditions of shoot-through. Therefore, the application of ZSI-based DVR topology seems very promising. The compensating reference voltage is generated by the R-SOGI algorithm, which offers superior output under conditions for grid voltage irregularities, including voltage sag/swell and unbalanced and distorted utility grid voltages. In comparison to DVR based on the VSI voltage inverter (VSI), the response from ZSI-DVR to a reduction of voltage distortions and harmonics is investigated. An experimental SPV ZSI-DVR prototype is developed in the laboratory to check the effectiveness of the controller and is tested under balanced and unbalanced supply and dynamic load conditions.

Voltage sag and harmonics are the most frequent power quality problems faced by industrial and commercial customers today. Situation has been aggravated by modern sensitive industrial equipments which introduce system harmonics due to their inherent V-I characteristics. In this paper, proportional integral (PI) control technique based dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) is implemented in power distribution system to suppress voltage sag and harmonics under linear, non-linear and induction motor load conditions. Real-time power distribution system and DVR test models are built in Matlab/Simulink software. Simulation results exhibit excellent PI control approach with effective performance yielding excellent voltage regulation.

Nowadays, power quality is one of the major problems in electric power distribution system. The poor power quality at distribution level can affect the operation and performance of sensitive and critical loads. In the distribution systems, poor power quality results in various problems such as higher power losses, harmonics, sag and swells in the voltage, and poor power factor., etc. Unified Power Quality Conditioner (UPQC) is the only versatile device which can mitigate several power quality problems related with distribution system. A UPQC that combines the operations of a Distribution Static Compensator (D-STATCOM) and Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) together with the shunt and series active control devices. UPQC can solve the problems related to the voltage/current harmonics, voltage sag/swell and unbalance in distribution system. To evaluate the performance improvement in the system, a model of UPQC is developed in MATLAB/SIMULINK with a typical distribution network. In this research, UPQC is applied for power quality enhancement of Myaungtagar industrial distribution substation, Myanmar. Enhancements in power quality by UPQC are evaluated under maximum load condition.Keywords—Power Quality, UPQC, Series Controller, Shunt controller, Harmonics
