This project deals with optimally placing a Thyristor Controlled Series Compensator (TCSC) using fuzzy logic to improve voltage profiles in transmission lines and ensure reliable power system operation. A fuzzy logic controller will be developed for the TCSC's shunt and series converters. The IEEE 14 bus system in Mi-Power software will be used as the test system. Contingency ranking and TCSC placement will be based on post-contingency values like loading percentage, voltage stability index L-index, and bus voltages, expressed in fuzzy notation and processed by fuzzy rules. The L-index calculation method and an example 4 bus system are described.
