IEEE 1534-2002

This project will develop a recommendation for specifying Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC) stations used in series with a transmission line. The document will address issues that consider ratings for TCSC thyristor valve assemblies, capacitors, and reactors as well as TCSC control characteristics, protective features, cooling systems, testing, commissioning, operation, and maintenance. Excluded from this document are detailed TCSC modeling considerations.
