Distributed static series compensator (DSSC) is a member of the family of distributed flexible AC transmission system devices that can be attached directly to conductors of transmission lines. DSSCs are able to compensate for and adjust the line reactance; thus, they could be widely used in stability-limited transmission systems. Owing to economic matters, the optimal placement of DSSCs is of a great interest from practical viewpoints. This study presents an approach to find the optimal locations of DSSCs to enhance the system loadability and reliability using the DC load flow model. The optimisation problem is solved using the mixed-integer linear programming. A compromise between improving the system loadability and reliability is fulfilled and a wide range of non-dominated optimal solutions is calculated. The final solution is then selected using the fuzzy satisfying method. Numerical studies are conducted on the IEEE reliability test system (IEE-RTS). Nomenclature

“…To overcome these disadvantages The Distributed Power Flow Controller (DPFC) recently presented in [3], is a powerful device within the family of FACTS devices, which provides much lower cost and higher reliability than conventional FACTS devices. It is derived from the UPFC and has the same capability of simultaneously adjusting all the parameters of the power system: line impedance, transmission angle, and bus voltage magnitude [4]- [5].…”

DPFC is proposed in the present work to improve voltage stability of fourteen bus system during line interruption. The voltage across the load decreases due to the interruption of the line. State space method is used to calculate Line currents and bus voltages. The ability of DPFC to bring voltage, real power and reactive power to normal level is presented in this paper. The simulation results for healthy system, line interrupted system without DPFC and with DPFC are presented. The results of comparative study are presented to show the improvement in power quality. The simulation studies indicate that the power flow with DPFC during line outage is almost equal to the power during healthy condition.

This paper presents a feasibility study of the application of distributed static series compensator (DSSC) in 11 kV distribution networks. The study investigates the mechanical stability of feeders, cross arms and poles in the presence of the DSSC devices. In addition, the extra tension applied to the wires by the weight of the device has been calculated for different types of overhead lines in different operating conditions. The results indicate that most of the existing distribution feeders have the capability to withstand the extra mechanical load represented by the suspension of the DSSC devices from the lines.
