High Voltage DC Lab

A high-voltage, direct current (HVDC) electric power transmission system (also called a power superhighway or an electrical superhighway) uses direct current for the bulk transmission of electrical power, in contrast with the more common alternating current (AC) systems. For long-distance transmission, HVDC systems may be less expensive and suffer lower electrical losses. The aim of the HVDC simulation laboratory is to provide in depth study of HVDC converters and reactive power control techniques.
