Abstract

A static synchronous compensator (36) for use in reactive power compensation, the static synchronous compensator (36) comprising at least one primary compensator limb (38) including first and second DC terminals (40, 42), and an AC terminal (44) for connection in use to an AC network (58), the or each primary compensator limb (38) defining first and second limb portions (50, 52), each limb portion (50, 52) including at least one switching element (54) connected in series with a chain-link converter (56) between a respective one of the first and second DC terminals (40, 42) and the AC terminal (44), the switching elements (54) of the first and second limb portions (50, 52) being operable to switch the respective chain-link converters (56) in and out of circuit between the respective DC terminal (40, 42) and the AC terminal (44) and the chain-link converters (56) being operable to generate a voltage waveform at the AC terminal (44); and a secondary compensator limb (46) including at least one DC link capacitor (48) connected between the first and second DC terminals (40, 42), the secondary compensator limb (46) being connected in parallel with the or each primary compensator limb (38).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a static synchronous compensator used in reactive power compensation. Background technique [0002] In high voltage direct current power transmission, alternating current (AC) power is converted to high voltage direct current (DC) power for transmission over overhead lines and / or submarine cables. This conversion reduces the cost per kilometer of wire and / or cable, making it cost-effective when power needs to be transmitted over long distances. Once the transmitted power reaches its destination, the high voltage DC power is converted back to AC power before being distributed to the local network. [0003] Under different network conditions, power transmission over AC transmission lines may experience fluctuations in voltage characteristics, which may cause deviations from standard values. Such fluctuations can be minimized by reactive power exchange between the regulating device and the AC transmission line. Such regulating ...
