Özet

In this paper, a practical thyristor-based 3-phase sag/swell/outage generator (disturbance generator) is designed to test various power quality mitigation devices (PQMDs), such as solid state transfer switch (SSTS), static voltage compensator (SVC), and uninterruptible power supply. The latest technological disturbance generators (DGs) and the proposed DG are comprehensively discussed and compared with focus on usefulness, economic aspects, and simplicity. The proposed DG is used for experimentally generating different fault conditions and testing a SSTS. The comparisons and analyses show that the proposed DG is an optimum and simple solution to generate sag, swell, unbalance, overvoltage, undervoltage, and outage to test PQMDs.
