Voltage Profile Enhancement for IEEE-14 Bus System using UPFC, TCSC and SSSC

Due to rapid growth in industrialization and urbanization much more capable transmission and distribution system is required to overcome the growing demand of electricity. So to meet up the demand of increasing power recent new technology, i.e., FACTS devices, has been developed in recent decades. The goal of this paper is to enhance the voltage profile of a test system using some FACTS devices, like UPFC, TCSC and SSSC. In this paper we have used an IEEE 14 bus as a test system and built it using PSAT software. First we find the critical bus having a minimum voltage profile and then by trial and error method we searched for appropriate FACTS device at appropriate location for maximum voltage enh8ancement of that critical bus.
