Summary: | The paper presents advantages of dynamic reactive power compensation facilities instead of until now used fixed compensation, as a standard technical solution in railway. Short overview of theory in the field of FACTS device is given. Simulations of these systems have been successfully developed in the MATLAB Simulink program. Recommendation is given for some of main parts in plant design. Results of simulation were proven through the measurement, which was done. Finally, the impact of reactive power compensation using FACTS device on the stability of the EPS (Electrical Power System) voltage was evaluated. Significantly, reduced cost has been shown for over-consumed reactive energy. |
