Abstract

This paper presents theoretical considerations, performance studies of linear and saturated reactors for voltage control purposes in transmission systems. The simulations will be made through ATPDraw simulator, which uses representation techniques in the time domain, such devices are modelled. By selecting a case study, issues associated with voltage regulation process are investigated, highlighting the specific features in each solution, when some variation is imposed to the network loading . Through this case study, the article highlights the advantages and disadvantages linked to each of these devices.
