Introduction
• Background• Aims• Progress in Phase 1• Phase 1 output graphs• Plans for Phase 2• Learning so far
Background
• D-SVC - Static VAr Compensator for Distribution Networks
• Supplied by Hitachi• Can produce 400kVAr leading or
lagging• 11kV connected via a dedicated
11kV/415V transformer• Designed for use on long rural
feeders that have Distributed Generation (DG) for voltage control
Aims• Stabilise voltage for a
windfarm at the end of a 11kV feeder
• Establish the impact of the D-SVC on the 11kV network
• Test the three different modes available on the D-SVC– Voltage Regulation– Voltage Averaging– Short Term Fluctuations
Progress in Phase 1• D-SVC is installed on site
adjacent to a 1.5MW windfarm in Cornwall
• Protection was installed on the LV side of the transformer as there was not a metering unit
• Monitoring equipment was installed along the feeder
• D-SVC has been running on various modes for nearly 4 months

Plans for Phase 2• Three D-SVCs will be used across two adjacent primary
substations• A D-VQC (Voltage and Reactive Power (Q) Control System) will
be used at the primary to control all three D-SVCs and the tap changer at one of the primary substations
• Although the site has not been confirmed, there is a combinations of medium wind generation, very long rural feeders and a large number of domestic properties with PV

Learning so far• When setting up a protection of the D-SVC the protection
needs to be on the HV side of the transformer• When sizing the transformer for a D-SVC it is important
select well above the power requirement of the device• The D-SVC can help smooth the voltage• The D-SVC can help reduce the range of voltages see on the
11kV
