Abstract :
In order to analyze the static synchronous compensator behavior, in this work two cases in the Mexican Electrical System are used. The first case is located in the northeast, which considers the use of a static synchronous compensator to achieve electrical stability after an electrical failure. The coupling transformer between the static synchronous compensator and the network is studied with different impedance values. The second case is presented in the southeast region, where the static synchronous compensator is used to maintain the voltage profile during periods of low chargeability.
