POWER FLOW AND DYNAMIC STABILITY CONSIDERATIONS OF A TRANSMISSION INTERCONNECTION

Please , Refer above derivation Active Power and Reactive power  formula of both substation and also the relation between them.

If you don't have derivation let me know in the post comment,  I will upload it. 


RELATIVE IMPORTANCE OF CONTROLLABLE PARAMETERS

In this I have only underlined and bold the important component that can be ask as MCQ.

• Control of the line impedance 𝑋 (e.g., with a thyristor-controlled series capacitor) can provide a powerful means of current control.

• When the angle is not large, which is often the case, control of 𝑋 or the angle substantially provides the control of active power.


1. when the shunt and series Controllers are unified, there can be a real power exchange between the series and shunt Controllers via the _______.

ANS: Power Link 




BENEFITS FROM FACTS TECHNOLOGY

Please, Remember all the Benefits of  FACTS technology 

1. Control of power flow

2. Increase the loading capability 

3. Increase the system security 

4. Provide secure tie line connections to neighbouring utilities 

5. Provide greater flexibility in siting new generation.

6. Upgrade of lines.

7. Reduce reactive power flows

8. Reduce loop flows.
