Abstract

Power Quality (PQ) development in circulation level is a rising concern in current electrical power systems. Frequently this difficulty is solved by smart sharing transformers, hybrid transformers, and solid-state transformers, but also Dynamic Voltage Conditioner (DVC) can be an inventive and cost-effective solution. The paper introduces a new control method of a single-phase DVC system able to compensate these long-duration voltage drifts. For these events, it is compulsory to avoid active power interactions so the controller is planned to work with non-active power only. DVC performance for main voltage and load variation is
examined. The proposed solution is validated with a simulation study and experimental laboratory tests. Some simulation and experimental results are illustrated to show the sample device’s performance.
