Abstract :
In this paper, the analysis of interphase power controller (IPC) equipped with the conventional phase shifting transformer (PST) is reviewed. Then, the static series synchronous compensator (SSSC) which incorporate the voltage source converter (VSC) is utilized for substitution of the PST in the IPC. The simplified model of the VSC-based IPC has been presented. The capabilities of this new device for power flow control and the short circuit current limiting have been investigated in Iran electric network.
