Summary

The thyristor controlled static var compensator is in widespread use in power transmission systems, although it is a relatively new shunt reactive power compensation device. With the aim to enlighten the possibilities and limitations of employing SVC's for voltage control and stability improvement a study has been performed on the subject.
