Research on Single-Phase Back-to-Back SVG Solution of Power Pollution of Traction Transformer to Accessed Grid

Abstract

Electrified railway traction transformer is a pivot that connects the electric locomotive and the public grid. Therefore, power quality problems caused by electric locomotive such as three-phase voltage imbalance, great voltage fluctuation and high harmonic content can be transmitted to the public grid via the traction transformer. To solve this problem, the solution of two sets of single-phase SVG (Static Var Generator) in back-to-back operation to solve power quality problems of the electrified railway is raised. This solution has been proved by practice effective in improving power quality of the traction transformer.
