TLDR
The concept of custom power is now becoming familiar as mentioned in this paper and it describes the value-added power that electric utilities and other service providers will offer their customers in the future The improved level of reliability of this power, in terms of reduced interruptions and less variation, will stem from an integrated solution to present problems, of which a prominent feature will be the application of power electronic controllers to utility distribution systems and/or at the supply end of many industrial and commercial customers and industrial parks.Abstract:

A Versatile Control Scheme For Dynamic Voltage Restorer To Limit Downstream Fault Currents
G. Venkata,Suresh Babu +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed an auxiliary control strategy for downstream fault current interruption in a radial distribution line by means of a dynamic voltage restorer (DVR), which does not require phaselocked loop and independently controls the magnitude and phase angle of the injected voltage for each phase.
