S. Nyati et al., EFFECTIVENESS OF THYRISTOR CONTROLLED SERIES CAPACITOR IN ENHANCING POWER-SYSTEM DYNAMICS - AN ANALOG SIMULATOR STUDY, IEEE transactions on power delivery, 9(2), 1994, pp. 1018
Simulator tests of a new type of series capacitor, controlled by thyri
stor switches, are described. The structure of the control system and
the components of the real-time simulator used for the tests are prese
nted. Test results show performance for switching transients, ac fault
s, power-swing damping events, and subsynchronous resonance conditions
