Power Quality Enhancement Using Custom Power De... Site
are a new generation of power electronic controllers designed for medium to low voltage levels (typically 1 KV through 32 KV) to ensure high-quality power delivery. Unlike Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) which focus on high-voltage transmission, CPDs are specifically applied at the distribution level to protect sensitive consumer equipment. Classification of Custom Power Devices
Active filtering, load balancing, and voltage regulation (sag/swell). Major Compensating Devices 1. Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR)

The UPQC is considered the most powerful CPD as it combines both converters via a common DC link.
DSTATCOM, Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR), Unified Power Quality Conditioner (UPQC) are a new generation of power electronic controllers
It supplies or receives reactive power at the point of common coupling.
It injects a synchronized voltage into the distribution feeder to maintain a constant load voltage during source disturbances. Major Compensating Devices 1
DSTATCOM is a voltage source inverter (VSI) that maintains bus voltage at required levels.
