Distribution network performance improvement using load compensation by Ojo, Alaba

“…Such loads include Adjustable speed drives (ASD), High voltage Direct current (HVDC) system, traction systems, electric arc furnace, flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS), heating, ventilation and Air conditioning (HVAC) and loads with switch-mode power supplies. These power electronics-based devices draw nonsinusoidal currents which increased the reactive power demand from the source and other effects such as current and voltage distortion, errors in metering and malfunctioning of protective equipment, increased heating in conductors and power transformers, poor voltage regulation due in the supply's distribution system due to resonance condition. …”
