Sag mitigation in distribution system by using Dynamic voltage Restorer (DVR)IJERA Editor
Power quality is most important concern in the current age. It’s now a day’s necessary with the refined devices, where performance is very perceptive to the quality of power supply. Power quality crisis is an incidence manifest as a typical voltage, current or frequency that results in a failure of end use equipments. One of the major crises dealt here is the power sag. Perceptive industrial loads and distribution networks suffer from different types of service interruptions and outages which results in a major financial loss. To improve the power quality, custom power-devices are used. The device considered in this work is Dynamic Voltage Restorer. This paper shows modelling, analysis and simulation of a DVR test systems using MATLAB.
I have considered single line to ground fault for linear load. The role of DVR is to “compensate load voltage” is examined during the different fault conditions like voltage sag, single phase to ground faults.
As a consequence of sensitive, diverse and complex loads in today's distribution networks, improving power quality in distribution systems has attracted great attention. Power quality issues involve voltage sags, transient interrupts and other distortions in sinusoidal waveforms. Enormous methods have been proposed for power quality modification. One of the methods by which power quality problems might be addressed is to apply power electronic devices in the form of custom power devices. One of such devices is Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) which is connected in series to distribution networks. At the same time, through injection of voltage to the network it is able to control voltage amplitude and phase. It is adopted lend to compensate for voltage sags through injecting series and synchronous three phase voltage. Consisted of three single phase inverters and a DC bus, it can protect susceptible loads against various types of voltage sags as well as other disturbances in the power supply. Moreover, it is capable of generating and absorbing active and reactive power. Therefore, in this paper, different structures of DVR have been investigated and eventually proposed a new structure for DVR based on Γ-Source asymmetric inverter. With the proposed structure, severe voltage sags can be retrieved 80- 90 percent. The simulation results that obtained by using MATLAB/Simulink indicate the properly functioning of proposed structure.
Mitigation of Voltage Sag/Swell with Fuzzy Control Reduced Rating DVRIJERD Editor
Power quality has been an issue that is becoming increasingly pivotal in industrial electricity
consumers point of view in recent times. Modern industries employ Sensitive power electronic equipments,
control devices and non-linear loads as part of automated processes to increase energy efficiency and
productivity. Voltage disturbances are the most common power quality problem due to this the use of a large
numbers of sophisticated and sensitive electronic equipment in industrial systems is increased. This paper
discusses the design and simulation of dynamic voltage restorer for improvement of power quality and
reduce the harmonics distortion of sensitive loads. Power quality problem is occurring at non-standard
voltage, current and frequency. Electronic devices are very sensitive loads. In power system voltage sag,
swell, flicker and harmonics are some of the problem to the sensitive load. The compensation capability
of a DVR depends primarily on the maximum voltage injection ability and the amount of stored
energy available within the restorer. This device is connected in series with the distribution feeder at
medium voltage. A fuzzy logic control is used to produce the gate pulses for control circuit of DVR and the
circuit is simulated by using MATLAB/SIMULINK software.

Abstract
This paper discusses about the power factor improvement and reduction in harmonic system. Poor power factor causes increased electricity charges, penalty for low power factor and unnecessary effect in the system and poor power quality. To smooth such negative effects, the power factor correction is carried out, also reduce harmonic content in the system filters are used. Automatic Power Factor Correction relay is one of the smart relay used to control the capacitor with respect to output.

Active Power Exchange in Distributed Power-Flow Controller (DPFC) At Third Ha...IJERD Editor
This paper presents a component within the flexible ac-transmission system (FACTS) family, called
distributed power-flow controller (DPFC). The DPFC is derived from the unified power-flow controller (UPFC)
with an eliminated common dc link. The DPFC has the same control capabilities as the UPFC, which comprise
the adjustment of the line impedance, the transmission angle, and the bus voltage. The active power exchange
between the shunt and series converters, which is through the common dc link in the UPFC, is now through the
transmission lines at the third-harmonic frequency. DPFC multiple small-size single-phase converters which
reduces the cost of equipment, no voltage isolation between phases, increases redundancy and there by
reliability increases. The principle and analysis of the DPFC are presented in this paper and the corresponding
simulation results that are carried out on a scaled prototype are also shown.
Brushless DC motor is a synchronous machine that makes use of electronic commutation instead of mechanical commutator. Brushless DC motors makes use of inverter encompassing static switches for its operation. A simple bridge converter when used for BLDC drive as front end converter makes input source power factor to get reduced which is unacceptable in the power system. To avoid the distortions in the source voltage and source currents, Buck converter which was used as power factor correction (PFC) converter in this paper to improve the power factor. Presence of power electronic converters deteriorates system power factor effecting overall system performance. This paper presents buck converter for power factor correction in brushless DC motor drive system. Buck converter is operated with current control strategy rather to conventional voltage follower control. Simulation model was obtained using MATLAB/SIMULINK software and the brushless DC motor performance characteristics were shown for conditions with different DC link voltages and step variation in DC link voltage. Total harmonic distortion in source current was also presented.

Compensation of Sag and Swell Voltage by using Dynamic Voltage Restorerijtsrd
The increase use of modern sensitive and sophisticated loads connected to distribution system causes various problems to the system. The major problems are voltage sag and swell, there is need to compensate it .Today most of the distribution companies are using power semiconductor based devices for improving power quality. Among the various custom power devices, Dynamic voltage restorer is used for compensation in this paper, which is most popular and widely used method. Here, in phase compensation technique of DVR is used with battery energy storage system. The DVR's life time is improved by replacing battery with super capacitor. Super capacitor are most suitable short duration energy requirement. The control technique employed here is SRF controller. The overall work is carried out in MATLAB Simulink.

Enhancement of Power Quality Problem by Using Dynamic Voltage RestorerAM Publications
Dynamic voltage restorers (DVRs) are used to protect sensitive loads from the effects of voltage sags on the
distribution feeder. This paper presents and verifies a novel voltage sag detection technique for use in conjunction
with the main control system of a DVR. In all cases it is necessary for the DVR control system to not only detect the
start and end of a voltage sag but also to determine the sag depth and any associated phase shift. The DVR, which is
placed in series with a sensitive load, must be able to respond quickly to a voltage sag if end users of sensitive
equipment are to experience no voltage sag. The DVR can restore the load voltage within few milliseconds. A control
technique based on a proportional–integral (PI) controller and a selective controller is used. The controller is
designed in a synchronously-rotating reference frame. In fact, three independent controllers have been used to tackle
balanced and unbalanced voltage supplies. Simulation results using ‘MATLAB SIMULINK’ Sim Power System
Toolbox is presented to illustrate the principle and performance of a DVR operation in load voltage compensation.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Abstract
The use of power electronics equipment has rapidly increasing day by day and leading to several power quality
problems. The different power quality problems we are facing the distribution system are Voltage sag, Voltage
swell, Current harmonics, notch, spike, transients etc. Voltage sag is the most severe power quality problem
which is affecting the industrial consumers; the best way to eradicate these power quality issues is by custom
power devices. Dynamic Voltage restorer and d-statcom are the one of the CUP devices used to maintain power
quality. In this paper the DVR and d-statcom are modeled and both of them are compared .The compensators
are tested with various types of loads and sources performance is analyzed using MATLAB/Simulink software.
Keywords: power quality, Voltage sag/swell, CUPS DVR, D-Statcom.

INTRODUCTION
Power quality is the most important issue
facing the present electrical engineering, with
increasing in power electronic loads and variable loads
it has became a major problem for industrial loads in
terms of time and money. Hence there is the need of
good power quality. Voltage sag is defined as the
decrease in the voltage level rms from 0.1 to 0.9 pu
with time interval. the common cause of voltage sag
are increasing of short circuits in the system, starting
of induction motors, and faulty wiring, this will lead to
increase in both production and financial loss for
industries , therefore it is a need to mitigate voltage
sag. In distribution system point there is also radial
distribution in which loads are connected have
different lengths short circuited at different points with
different rating, this leads various in feeder impedance
and increases losses in the distribution system. If the
load is connected at end of long feeder it is called as
Non- stiff source or weak ac supply and wise versa it
is known as strong ac or stiff source. Several
compensating devices came into existence in order to
maintain power quality, such as capacitor banks,
active and passive filters, and custom power devices.
Among them in this paper we have highlighted about
customer power devices. Custom power devices are
power electronic based devices which are used to
maintain power quality problems such are voltage
sag/swell, current harmonics, reactive power
compensation and power factor correction. Two types
of VSC’s based CUPS are commonly used such as
DVR (Dynamic Voltage Restorer) and D-statcom
(Distributed statcom).different control strategies have
been proposed for DVR and D-Statcom, d-statcom
includes reactive power compensation and voltage
controlled mode operation and DVR includes open
loop and closed operation. In a common control
www.ijera.com
strategy has been proposed for the shunt and series
compensator. This paper assumes that a balanced and
unbalanced load source supplies through the feeder.
The compensators are designed in such a way that the
compensator can improve power quality at PCC. And
comparison is done using linear and non-linear loads
and closed loop performance is analyzed. A simple
sinusoidal reference voltage and a fixed switched
frequency is compared in the closed loop system, the
performance of the both the comparator purely
depends upon the feeder impedance, in source point of
view the performance is compared with stiff and nonstiff source. And also a generalized multi level
converter topology is considered and the modulation
techniques based on cascaded multilevel inverter have
been proposed for medium voltage distribution
applications. Simulation is performed in both three
phase and single phase system

Dynamic Voltage Restorer And Its
Operating Principle
A. Dynamic voltage Restorer:
Dynamic voltage is one of the custom power
device which is used for voltage sag/swell elimination
and it consists of a VSC (Voltage Source Converter),
storing device (Battery), Passive Filters, Injection
transformer also known as Coupling transformer, In
DVR VSC is made up with 6 IGBT switch which is
used for conversion of dc link voltage into ac supply
and there a battery which acts as dc link voltage and as
well as storing agent and there placed a passive which
is elimination of switching harmonics, when voltage
source converter converts ac-dc or dc-ac we get ripple
in the output supply of VSC and in order to eliminate
those ripples passive filters are used and this output of
the ripple filter is connected to the injection
transformer and which injects the filtered supply into

the bus or feeder. When there is no disturbance in the
system the injected transformer will be short circuited
by the switch to decrease losses and increase cost
effectiveness. The o/p of the DVR is completely
depending upon the PWM technique and control
method. The PWM generates signal by comparing
sinusoidal signal with the carrier wave signal and
sending appropriate signal to the Inverter.
The Phasor diagram represents the electrical
condition during voltage sag condition for easy
analysis one phase is only considered. Voltages V1,
V2, Vdvr are source voltage, load voltage and DVR
injected voltages, respectively. I, Ø α, δ, represents the
load current, load power factor angle, the source phase
voltage, and phase angle. The advantage of proposed
technique is that less active power will be transferred
from storage unit to distribution system. This results in
compensation for deep voltage sag in the distribution
system. The reference is considered as the source
voltage and a carrier frequency is considered and both
are compared with a comparator and the gating signals
obtained are given to the gate terminals of DVR. The
capability of injection of DVR system is 50% of
nominal voltage; this allows DVR to succefully
provide protection against sag to 50% from durations
of up to 0.1sec.

When voltage drop occurred at load, DVR
will inject a series Voltage through transformer so that
the load voltage can be maintained at nominal value,
thus equation can be written as

In most of the sad conditions the DVR injects
some active power to the system. Generally the
operation of DVR can be categorized into two modes:
1) standby mode, 2) Injection Mode. Therefore the
capacity of the storing device can be limiting factor
especially during long-term voltage sag. In standby
mode, DVR either in short circuit operation or inject
small voltage to cover voltage drop due to transformer
reactance losses. The DVR is turn into injection mode
as soon as sag is detected and injects voltage in Series
with the load with required magnitude and phase for
compensation.

MODELING AND CONTROL OF DSTATCOM
DSTATCOM [1] is a voltage source
converter (VSC) that is connected in shunt with the
distribution system by means of a tie reactance
connected to compensate the load current. In general,
a coupling transformer is installed between the
distribution system and the DSTATCOM for isolating
the DSTATCOM from the distribution system. In
addition, the device needs to be installed as close to
the sensitive load as possible to maximize the
compensating capability. Being a shunt connected
device, the DSTATCOM mainly injects reactive
power to the system. The role of DSTATCOM is
specifically appreciated in case of a weak AC system
[2]. The structure of DSTATCOM along with its
operating modes is shown in Figure 6. The main
components of DSTATCOM are – a VSC (voltage
source converter), controller, filter, and energy storage
device.
The system scheme of DSTATCOM is
shown in Figure 5. These are briefly described as
follows:
A. Isolation transformer: It connects the DSTATCOM
to the distribution network and its main purpose is to
maintain isolation between the DSTATCOM circuit
and the distribution network.
B. Voltage source converter: A voltage source
converter consists of a storage device and devices of
switching, generating a sinusoidal voltage at any
required frequency, magnitude and phase angle. In the
DSTATCOM application, this temporarily replaces
the supply voltage or generates the part of the supply
voltage which is absent and injects the compensating
current into the distribution network depending upon
the amount of unbalance or distortion. In this work, an
IGBT is used as the switching device.
C. DC charging unit: This unit charges the energy
source after a compensation event and also maintains
the dc link voltage at the nominal value.

D. Harmonic filters: The main function of harmonic
filter is to filter out the unwanted harmonics generated
by the VSC and hence, keep the harmonic level within
the permissible limit. Energy storage unit: Energy
storage units like flywheels, batteries, superconducting
magnetic energy Storage (SMES) and super capacitors
store energy. It serves as the real power requirements
of the system when DSTATCOM is used for
compensation [3]. In case, no energy source is
connected to the DC bus, then the average power
exchanged by the DSTATCOM is zero assuming the
switches, reactors, and capacitors to be ideal. Figure 3
represents the schematic scheme of DSTATCOM in
which the shunt injected current Ish corrects the
voltage sag by adjusting the voltage drop across the
system impedance Zth and value of Ish can be
controlled by altering the output voltage of the
converter [4].

minimum apparent power injection into the system.
The contribution of the DSTATCOM to the load bus
voltage equals the injected current times the
impedance seen from the device also, that is the
source impedance in parallel with the load impedance.
The ability of the STATCOM to compensate the
voltage dip is limited by this available parallel
impedance. It helps to reduce the voltage fluctuations
at the PCC (point of common coupling) [5], [6].
Voltage dips can be mitigated by DSTATCOM, which
is based on a shunt connected voltage source
converter. VSC with pulse-width modulation (PWM)
offers fast and reliable control for voltage dips
mitigation.

The effectiveness of the DSTATCOM in
correcting the fault depends on the value of Zth or
fault level of the load bus. When the shunt supplied
current Ish is set in quadrature with VL, the desired
correction of voltage can be achieved without
injecting any active power into the system.
Alternatively, when the value of Ish is decreased, the
same correction of voltage can be achieved with

Fig 7 shows the single line diagram of radial
distribution system. Fig 7(a), Fig7(b ) represents the
source and the load respectively. The voltage source is
connected point of the radial feeder. The point of
common coupling (PCC), represented by point P, and
the non-linear load is connected to the end of the
radial feeder.. Vt represents the terminal voltage at
pcc. Restoring the load bus voltage at point L under
the conditions of sags and swells in the source is an
essential requirement for the sensitive loads. Also, it is
required to control this voltage against distortions due
to the nonlinear load . A VSC-based generalized
structure of the compensator used in a single-phase
distribution system is shown in Fig. 1(c). Two types of
compensators have been considered in this paper for
load voltage control of the distribution system. In
case the compensator is shunt type (i.e.,

DSTATCOM), the terminals P, L, T1 and are joined
together and is T2grounded. In case the compensator
is series type (i.e., DVR), the terminal is T1connected
to L and T2 is connected to P. The compensator
consists of a VSC that is interfaced to the distribution
system. The voltage represents the net dc link voltage
across the VSC. The variable is defined as the control
input and represents the high-frequency switching of
the inverter that assumes discrete values between and ,
depending upon the number of levels used in the
multilevel converter topology [17]. The symbol
represents the equivalent inductance in the converter
circuit. The resistance represents the equivalent loss
component in the compensator. The filter capacitor is
connected across the VSC to support the output
voltage and provide filtering to the high-frequency
switching components of the VSC. The currents
flowing through the different branches are: the source
current Is , the load current Il, and the current through
the filter capacitor Icf. The nonlinear load considered
in this paper is assumed to be a bridge rectifier type
with input impedance [4]. For a single-phase load as
shown in Fig. 2, the output dc voltage of the bridge
rectifier is fed to a resistive load supported by a
parallel dc capacitor. This nonlinear load is called a
voltage source type and is represented by a harmonic
perturbation voltage source Vd, where Vdc is the
Thevenin equivalent voltage source of this load [11],
[17]. For a large dc capacitor and ac inductance, the
input impedance approximately represents the
Thevenin equivalent impedance of this nonlinear load.
The equivalent circuit is as shown in Fig. 2.

LOAD VOLTAGE CONTROL AND
VSC MODULATION
In this paper for DVR and D-Statcom a
simple output feedback loop is considered in order to
control the load voltage. In this the actual Load
voltage Vl is compared with the reference voltage V*
and the error signal E* is passed to the low pass filter
based derivate controller to switching pulses. The Sdomain representation of the controller transfer
function Gc(s) between the output switching function
Se and the input error function et is defined as :
4
Gc(S ) Se(s) / el (s) K1 ( K 2s / K 2 1)
Where error function el is defined as el V * Vl
and K1 and K2 represents the proportional and
derivate gains. The derivative action is associated with
the first order low-pass filter to limit the amplification
of the high-frequency noise and disturbances. The low
pass filter action depends upon the filter coefficient
The switching function Se so obtained is modulated
following the phase-shifted multicarrier PWM for the
cascaded multilevel converter as given in [17]. The
equivalent modulation method used with the two-level
converter can be implemented as [11]

SIMULATION IMPLEMENTATION
ON SINGLE PHASE SYSTEM:
A. Load Voltage Control in a Weak AC Supply
System:
A sinusoidal reference of 60 V(rms) is
chosen for the load voltage control. Fig. 10 shows the
comparison of the load voltage control using
DSTATCOM with 2 kHz and 3 kHz of switching
frequency using a two level VSC. Clearly the voltage
tracking characteristic is better with 3-kHz switching
frequency showing small tracking error at steady state.
Therefore, for the remainder of this paper, the gating
signal generated for complementary switches of the
two-level inverter at a fixed switching frequency of 3

of dvr and d-statcom source voltage distortion or

distorted and has a THD of 21.8% and a magnitude
reduced by 10%, due to the nonlinear load and
distorted supply voltage. Thus by placing d-statcom
we can absorb the system can regain back to its
original state the load voltage against variations in the
source voltage and in the presence of the harmonic
components of the nonlinear load, as shown in Fig. 12.
The THD of the load voltage improves to 1.7% and
controlled close to 60 V rms. Fig. 13 shows the load
voltage control using DSTATCOM when the supply
voltage rises by 20% (Voltage swell). Fig. 16 shows
the load voltage control using the DVR that contains
harmonics due to the high-frequency components of

the load. The total harmonic distortion (THD) of the
controlled load voltage is 10.2%. Clearly, we can
absorb that DVR unable to control the voltage under
non- stiff source Fig. 14 also shows the voltage sag
condition of the source voltage from its nominal value.
The feeder voltage is the mixed content of low-order
harmonics. DVR can able to compensate to the lowfrequency components of the source as discussed
earlier. Thus, the DVR controls the load voltage
against variations in the source voltage and low-order
source voltage harmonics.
B.Load Voltage Control in Strong AC Supply
System:
As discussed before the ac source is directly
connected to the PCC. With this arrangement, the
source voltage will directly flows across the load and
there is no control of the DSTATCOM over variations
in the source voltage. The DVR is useful in this
situation. Fig. 15 shows the load voltage control using
DVR when the feeder is strong source. The THD of
the controlled load voltage is 1.9%. In this case, the
DVR control is effective against the variations in the
source voltage and harmonics of the nonlinear load.
The source voltage again shows the voltage dip
condition in Fig. 15. Fig. 16 shows the load voltage
control against sag in the source voltage by the DVR
for the stiff supply system. The figure also shows the
changing condition of the source voltage. From the
aforementioned experimental results, it is verified that
the DSTATCOM is a suitable compensator for the
nonlinear load supplied from the non-stiff source. For
the other case, the DVR is a suitable compensator
when the nonlinear load is supplied from the stiff
source.

This section, the load voltage of a three-phase fourwire 11-kV distribution system is controlled. The data
for the distribution system are given in Table III. The
data have the same per unit values as given in Table I.
The converter topology based on the seven-level
cascaded transformer multilevel inverter as proposed
in and shown in Fig. 17 has been used for the
DSTATCOM and the DVR.
A Load Voltage Control Using DSTATCOM:
The feeder parameter as given in Table III
shows that the supply system is weak. Therefore, a
DSTATCOM is used here to control the load voltage.
The eleven-level multicarrier PWM has been used
with three H-bridges per phase, as shown in Fig. 17. A
carrier frequency of 1.0 kHz is considered. In this case
of the seven-level inverter, the effective switching
frequency is 6.0 kHz and this leads to the effective
switching delay 0.0833 ms, where 7 for the eleven
level inverter. The controller parameters are chosen,
10, 0.001 and 0.01, for 0.1 ms so that it satisfies. The
net dc link voltage used in the model of the
DSTATCOM is 19.8 kV, where the transformer is
turns ratio and is equal to 3.0 here. A PI controller has
been used to control the dc link voltage to 2.2 kV [10].
The reference amplitude for the load voltage is chosen
as 8.98 kV for each phase that leads to the 11 kV lineline voltages. Fig. 18(a) shows the load bus voltage.
The voltage is distorted and unbalanced when
DSTATCOM is not connected. Also, there is a 25%
voltage dip in phase-b. The DSTATCOM is connected
at 0.2 s, and the voltage becomes balanced and
sinusoidal. The eleven-level inverter output cascaded
at the primary of the transformer is shown in Fig.
18(b). The voltage is controlled against unbalancing in
the source and harmonic distortion due to the
nonlinear load.
B.Load Voltage Control Using DVR:
To illustrate the performance of DVR, the
system parameters given in Table III are considered
again. However, it is assumed that an industrial load is
directly connected to the 11-kV bus so that the supply
system is strong with the feeder impedance of p.u. The
same multilevel converter topology as shown in Fig.
17 has been used for the DVR. The rest of the
parameters are considered the same except for the
cascading transformer voltage ratio of 2.0 kV/2.0 kV.
The common dc link voltage of the VSC is supported
using the three-phase diode bridge rectifier [19], The
rectifier is supplied from a three-phase transformer
that is connected to the PCC of the same distribution
system feeder. The load voltage is controlled using the
pre sag/swell reference angle method. The supply is
again considered unbalanced. Sag of 25% is initiated
in the supply at 0.1 s that lasts until 0.18 s. Similarly
after normalcy, a swell of 15% is generated at 0.26 s
that lasts until 0.3 s. The load voltage is controlled to a
constant voltage of near sinusoidal wave shape against

shown in Fig. 19.

CONCLUSION
In this work, the investigation on the role of
DSTATCOM and DVR is carried out to improve the
power quality in distribution networks with static
linear and non linear loads. Test system is analyzed
and results are presented in the simulation section. The
results shows the satisfactory performance of
DSTATCOM and DVR in the distribution networks
under different fault conditions and it can be
concluded that DSTATCOM and DVR effectively
improves the power quality in distribution networks
with static linear. The generalized converter topology
based on cascaded multilevel inverter using
multicarrier phase-shifted PWM can be used for the
load voltage control of an MV distribution system,
following the proposed control algorithm. The results
for the three-phase load voltage control have been
verified for an 11-kV distribution system, using
