Project Idea:
This project demonstrates the Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) using Thyristor Switched Reactance (TSR). It controls voltage levels on transmission lines by compensating the Ferranti Effect, which occurs during low load conditions. An 8051 microcontroller detects lead time between voltage and current pulses and triggers shunt inductors via SCRs to stabilize the voltage.
Components Included:
8051 Microcontroller
Thyristor (SCR)
Lamp
Choke (Shunt Reactor)
Operational Amplifier
Resistors, Capacitors, Transistors
Diodes
PCB & Breadboard
Transformer / Adapter
ICs & IC Sockets
LEDs
Push Buttons, Switch
Cables & Connectors
Project Features:
Demonstrates real-time voltage control on AC lines
Uses Thyristor Switched Reactors (TSRs) for compensation
Microcontroller-based automation
Optical isolation between control and power circuits
Reduces voltage surge caused by Ferranti Effect

Order Processing Time:
- All project orders are processed within 2-3 business days after payment confirmation.
- After processing, the development of your project will begin. We require a minimum of 10-15 days to complete and prepare your project for shipment. However, please note that the delivery time is an estimate and may vary depending on project complexity and component availability.
-
Delivery Timeframe:
- While we strive to deliver your project within the specified timeframe, there is no guaranteed delivery date. The actual delivery time may be shorter or longer depending on various factors, including shipping delays, customs clearance, and unforeseen technical challenges.
- We will keep you informed of your project's progress and provide updates on the estimated delivery time as needed.
-
Shipping and Delivery Charges:
- Delivery charges are additional and are not included in the project price. The shipping cost will be calculated at checkout based on your location and the chosen shipping method.
- Customers are responsible for any customs duties, taxes, or fees that may be applicable in their country.
-
Order Cancellations:
- Due to the customized nature of our projects, orders can only be canceled within 24 hours of placement. After this period, the order is non-cancellable as work will have already begun.
-
Returns and Refunds:
- As these are custom-built projects, we do not accept returns or offer refunds unless the project is defective or significantly not as described.
- If there are any issues with your project upon delivery, please contact us within 7 days to resolve the matter.
-
Technical Support:
- We provide basic technical support for the first 30 days after delivery to help you set up and operate your project.
- Extended support and customization services are available at an additional cost.
-
Disclaimer:
- We are not responsible for delays caused by external factors beyond our control, including but not limited to shipping carrier delays, natural disasters, or government restrictions.
