  Unbalance and voltage fluctuation are considered as a major problem within the 3-phase Shield Wire Schemes networks (SWS). This paper deals with the methods to reduce the unbalance and voltage fluctuation by using the H-bridge cascaded Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM). In unconventional networks without STATCOM, the unbalance factor is generally more than 27%. In this study, we proved that after voltage compensation by the H-bridge cascaded STATCOM, unbalance factor is reduce to 0.15% for ground impedance variation. The ground resistance has been varied between 33 and 8000 Ω, and the ground inductance between 10 and 110 H. Moreover, the voltage fluctuation is reduced. The obtained results correspond to those recommended in power distribution for the proper operation of electrical equipment... Read More»
