Performance of a three-phase Self-Excited Induction Generator with Static Synchronous Series Compensator

The performance of three-phase Self-Excited Induction Generator (SEIG) with Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC) is investigated to feed various static loads. The employed SSSC is a three-phase, Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) based, PWM operated, Current-Control Voltage source converter (CC-VSC). The reference current to generate the gating signals is obtained by employing only one PI control loop. With the designed parameters and the proposed control scheme, the SSSC is found effective to regulate load voltage during change of the loads.
