Description / Abstract:
This recommended practice specifies thyristor-controlled series
capacitor (TCSC) installations used in series with transmission
lines. The document addresses issues that consider ratings for TCSC
thyristor valve assemblies, capacitors, and reactors as well as
TCSC control characteristics, protective features, cooling systems,
testing, commissioning, operation, and maintenance.
Purpose
This document provides assistance and guidance to planning,
substation, commissioning, and operation engineers in the course of
specifying TCSC installations. Users of this document should tailor
these recommendations to their specific project requirements.
