Abstract :
A mathematical model of distribution STATCOM has been implemented in MATLAB/Simulink to validate its capability for mitigation of voltage sag due to DOL starting of induction motor. This paper organized with brief introduction to voltage sag problem followed by characteristics of voltage sag, basic structure & operation of D-STATCOM. The model is subjected to, first without D-STATCOM and then with it. The results obtained in both the cases are analyzed. Based on this analysis the capability of D-STATCOM to mitigate the voltage sag due to DOL starting of IM is validated.
