  • Abstract
    This paper proposes a new type of voltage swell/sag compensator based on single-phase Z-source AC/AC converter. The proposed topology employs a pulse width modulation (PWM) Z-source AC/AC converter along with a transformer. A commutation strategy to drive the AC/AC converter is employed to realize snubberless operation. Circuit analysis is provided. Simulation and experimental results at 20% voltage swell, 40% voltage swell and 60% voltage sag are shown.
