active compensators (e.g., synchronous condensers, static var compensators, static synchronous compensators that can be either sources or sinks of reactive power; regulating transformers (e.g., tap-changing transformers).
In Electrical Engineering, a static VAR compensator (SVC) is a set of electrical devices for providing fast-acting reactive power on high-voltage electricity transmission networks. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] SVCs are part of the flexible AC transmission system [ 3 ] [ 4 ] device family, regulating voltage, power factor, harmonics and stabilizing the system.
In Electrical Engineering , a static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) is a shunt-connected, reactive compensation device used on transmission networks. It uses power electronics to form a voltage-source converter that can act as either a source or sink of reactive AC power to an electricity network. It is a member of the FACTS family of devices.
Static synchronous series compensator. A static synchronous series compensator (SSSC) is a type of flexible AC transmission system which consists of a solid-state voltage source inverter coupled with a transformer that is connected in series with a transmission line. This device can inject an almost sinusoidal voltage in series with the line.
Although the past few years have been brutal for borrowers from an interest rate perspective, they’ve been fantastic for people with money in the bank. For much of 2023 and 2024, 5% CD rates ...
While HVDC focused on conversion to DC, FACTs devices used the developed technology to control power and voltage on the AC system. The most common type of FACTs device is the Static VAR Compensator (SVC), which uses Thyristors to switch and control shunt capacitors and reactors, respectively.
The officials were a big storyline headed into the Super Bowl thanks in part to social media conspiracy theories about favoritism toward the Kansas City Chiefs. “I saw a lot of stuff about the ...
Bob Uecker had the kind of career stat line that would be sad if it wasn’t so funny. But funny is what would ultimately cement his legacy. Uecker, who died Jan. 16 at the age of 90, was a career ...
