description The custom power park (CPP) is a concept that has been developed for the purpose of dealing with power quality problems. The CPP is powered by two independent feeders and consists of different types of custom power devices for compensation (dynamic voltage restorer, DVR) and reconfiguration (static transfer switch, STS). Normally, the loads are fed by the preferred feeder (PF) through the STS. When a fault occurs in the PF, the STS performs a reconfiguration of the feeders and feeds the load with an alternate feeder. In this paper, a two-input DVR based on the matrix converter is proposed to provide stable voltage to the load. Each of the DVR inputs is connected to a different feeder, and the PF powers the load. Thus, the DVR has an operational behavior like the STS when reconfiguring the energy transfer of the two feeders and injects it into the PF to guarantee a stable voltage in the load. The control algorithm in the DVR is performed in the <i>dq</i> reference frame to have a unit power factor in feeders and load. The modulation schemes are based on space vector modulation and modified carrier based pulse width modulation. The efficiency and multifunctionality of the proposed DVR is corroborated by simulations on the MATLAB/Simulink.
