Symmetrical follow-up reactive current compensator

The FC/TCR (thyristor controlled reactor) static compensator of which the TCR is formed by a thyristor bridge shorted on the DC side with no impedance is presented. It is fed from an AC supply network through a transformer with high voltage shorting, or a standard transformer provided with additional series reactors. The various operating conditions of such a system are analyzed. The operating efficiency of the compensator is examined in the time and frequency domains.<
