Objectives
To design an electronic load controller
which helps in regulation of reactive
power and frequency
An improved load controller which can
also perform functions of voltage
regulation, harmonic eliminator, load
balancer and neutral current
compensator

Works completed
SEIG excitation under no load
Implementation of statcom for
loadbalancing, reactive power
compensation and filtering
