Voltage regulation in distribution grids: A survey
Traditionally, voltage control in the distribution grid has been implemented using devices such as tap changing transformers, shunt capacitors, and voltage regulators.
This has been the conventional implementation of voltage optimization: focusing on regulation of voltages throughout the distribution system via coordinated adjustments of load tap changers, line-volt...

Traditionally, voltage control in the distribution grid has been implemented using devices such as tap changing transformers, shunt capacitors, and voltage regulators.
This paper seeks contribution in the domain of reactive power compensation by establishing stability of local Volt/VAr controllers.
A method using a Rotary Voltage Regulator (RVR) is proposed, which injects a constant amplitude and continuously adjustable phase voltage phasor into the line by controlling the relative angle of the rotor.
Both three-phase and single-phase voltage regulators are used in distribution substations to regulate the load-side voltage.
This paper proposes an optimal control method for the on-load tap changer (OLTC) of a substation''s main transformer (M.TR), to maximize the voltage compliance rate (VCR) in distribution
For completeness, and to further distinguish how voltage-optimization techniques vary depending on the connectivity of the system, the following has been included as a summary of the current state of
This local smart inverter control can be done through various smart inverter modes, which include fixed power factor configuration or autonomously controlling the reactive power output based on the local
This project was based on a real case study in which three different voltage regulation techniques (Constant Voltage, Load Line, and Line Drop Compensation (LDC)) were implemented in a
However, usually ZLDC is only an equivalent impedance to model the voltage drop between the SVR and a load center located several buses (and laterals) downstream
There are three main methods used to control the voltage at the end of a distribution feeder – By using control equipment to vary the voltage at the supply end of the feeder or at the load
They can correct voltage, but they have no effect on power factor. They are installed in series between the Source and Load. They are a voltage source, they add or subtract voltage to the existing voltage.
These devices can provide low-cost and fast timescale reactive power compensation throughout the distribution grid, reducing the mechanical switching burden on traditional devices and
