Abstract
This paper presents a comprehensive survey on the mitigation of power quality problems such as low power factor, shortage of reactive power, poor voltage, voltage and current harmonics due to sudden change in field excitation of synchronous alternator, sudden increased in load, sudden fault occur in the system are solved by FACTS controllers such as STATCOM, DSTATCOM. This paper also presents current status of mitigation of power quality problems by FACTS controllers. The authors strongly believe that this survey article will be very much useful to the researchers for finding out the relevant references in the field of power quality problems solved by FACTS controllers.
