ABSTRACT
Electrical and Electronic systems are subjected to a wide range of power quality
problems such as short duration, long duration variations, wave form distortion,
presence of non-sinusoidal components in the voltage waveform which interrupt
production processes. Equipment sensitivity may lead to downtime scrap and capacity
losses. Also, good power quality saves more energy and money. One approach to
address voltage sag problem is by implementing Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) as it
gives compensation to sag, swell, improves the line regulation and restores load voltage
within a few milliseconds. DVR are a relatively new static VAR device that has seen
applications in a variety of distribution and transmission applications. Unlike other
static compensators, DVR provides voltage compensation online, from a capacitor
bank via an DC link. Due to its miniaturization, and cost reliability it includes fast
dynamic response. This proposal presents modelling, analysis of voltage sags and
correction of power factor for improved power quality using MATLAB/SIMULINK
