IV. CONCLUSION
In this paper, the simulation model of static synchronous
compensator STATCOM based thyristor has been constructed
on Matlab/simulink software. Reactive power generation was
achieved by charging and discharging the energy storage
capacitor. T h e amount of reactive power is depending upon the
thyristor-firing angle as shown in'tables. 1

The magnitude of the STATCOM terminal voltage was
controlled w ith respect to the system voltage. STATCOM
model Tested on. Matlabisimulink has shown that it can
improve the voltage sag vector (magnitude and duration).
Furthermore, it has shown the fast response of the STATCOM
to voltage sag phenomena. Simulation resdts shown that the
voltage sag improvement offered by a STATCOM may
significantly reduce the number of trips in the sensitive
equipments.
