Abstract
© 2017 IEEE. This work addresses the compensation of power quality disturbance in electric power distribution network as a result of voltage variation and voltage unbalanced using one of the most effective power electronics based custom power controller known as Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR). DVR usually connected between the source voltage and the customer load. The new setup of DVR has been put forward using dqo controller and proportional integral (PI) controller method. The simulations are achieved using MATLAB/Simulink Sim Power System tool box. The simulation results attest to the effectiveness of the proposed DVR configuration in compensating the power quality problems in secondary distribution system. The simulation results runs are presented with different settings of parameter used in the model in order to help the validity of the function of DVR in enhancing the quality of power supply at customer side.
