Abstract

The effective and economical means of solving problems of transient stability, dynamic stability, steady state stability and voltage stability in long transmission lines can not be over emphasized in electrical power network system.The major factor contributing to voltage instability is the voltage drop that occurs when both active and reactive power flow through the inductive reactance of a transmission network, thereby making the network unable to meet the reactive power demands. This limits the capabilities of the transmission network, in terms of power transfer and voltage support [1]. To Solve these problems, FACTS are recent technologies that employ high speed thyristors for switching in and out of transmission line components such as capacitors, reactors or phase shifting transformers to attain certain system desirable performance criteria [2]. IEEE defines FACTS as a power electronic based system and other static equipment that provide control of one or more ac transmission system parameters to enhance controllability and increase power transfer capability. This Paper investigates, reviews, compare similarities of the variable of different Facts devices as it concerns the role each of these facts device play in transient stability, dynamic stability, steady state stability and voltage stability in both short and long transmission lines of of elctric power system network.
