A bus bar in an electrical power distribution refers to bulky segments of copper or aluminum that carry out electricity within a switchboard, distribution panel and substation. In this task, bus bar can be protected from the over current condition. Mechanical instruments disappointments have numerous causes and one of the primary causes is over bur...

This paper introduces a new optimization method to determine the optimal allocation of Unified Power Quality Conditioner (UPQC) in the distribution systems. UPQC is a versatile Custom Power Device (CPD) to solve problems related to voltage and current by the series and shunt compensator in the distribution systems. The task of UPQC highlighted in t...

This paper elucidates a Particle Swarm Optimization method (PSO) for optimal placement of Unified Power Quality Conditioner (UPQC) for loss reduction and voltage profile improvement in the radial distribution systems. UPQC comprises of a series and a shunt compensator. The shunt compensator delivers reactive power to meet the load reactive power de...

This paper gives an application of Moth Swarm Algorithm (MSA) in transmission networks by integrating UPFC and SVC devices for loss reduction and voltage profile enhancement. Power Loss Sensitivity Factors are used to find the optimal locations of UPFC and Fuzzy Approach is used for optimal locations of SVC.MSA is used to get the optimal control pa...

This paper presents optimal placement of Static Series Voltage Regulator (SSVR), for voltage profile improvement and power loss reduction in radial distribution systems under steady state condition. SSVR consists of a series compensator. The series compensator injects the series voltage in quadrature with the branch current in such a way that the r...

This paper acquaints us with the problem of Unified Power Quality Conditioner (UPQC) placement in radial distribution systems. The objective of UPQC placement is to reduce the real power losses and improve the voltage profile. The problem is formulated as a nonlinear single objective problem. The voltage compensation is done by injecting active and...

This paper gives the performance of Unified Power Quality Conditioner (UPQC) in radial distribution systems. The main emphasis in this paper is to evaluate the performance of UPQC in steady state operating conditions. The two most important components of UPQC are series and shunt compensators. In normal practice, the series compensator injects seri...
