An enhanced premium power park configuration using active power and voltage conditioning devices

In this paper, an enhanced premium power park (PPP) configuration is proposed to effectively mitigate power quality disturbances using a combination of active power and voltage conditioning devices in a spot-configuration-based distribution system. Furthermore, a new coordination algorithm is proposed to achieve full-range coordination between the controllers, thus ensuring the maximum reliability of the proposed configuration. To prove the enhancement of the proposed PPP configuration in terms of improved power quality and investigate the performance of the system under different types of power quality disturbances, several scenarios are simulated using the Matlab/Simulink software.
