A power quality problem is an occurrence manifested as a nonstandard voltage, current or frequency that results in a failure of end user equipments. Utility distribution networks, sensitive industrial loads and critical commercial operations suffer from various types of outages and service interruptions which can cost significant financial losses. With the restructuring of power systems and with shifting trend towards distributed and dispersed generation, the issue of power quality is going to take newer dimensions. This work describes the techniques of correcting the voltage sag in a distributed system. At present, custom power devices with a wide range of flexible controllers, which capitalize on newly available power electronics components, are emerging for power quality improvement. Among these, the distribution static compensator and the dynamic voltage restorer are most effective devices; both of them are based on the voltage source converter principle. In this project the effects of using DSTATCOM (Distribution Static Compensator) for power quality improvement are discussed.
