Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) Technology
21 Professional Development Hours
After participating in this course, you will be able to:
- Evaluate the requirements for power systems and utilities where FACTS Controllers/Devices are essential.
- Calculate power transmission capacity and implement reactive compensation techniques to enhance system performance.
- Analyze and model the operational principles, control mechanisms, and various FACTS Controllers' behavior.
- Assess how measurement systems, network resonances, and harmonics affect FACTS systems and overall power grid stability.
- Design and apply FACTS Controllers to increase power transfer, improve system stability, and prevent voltage instability and load imbalances.
