how is gto controlled series capacitor demonstrated

This compensator scheme is interesting in that it is the perfect combination of
the well-established TCR, having the unique capability of directly varying the capacitor
voltage by delay angle control. Apart from the theoretical interest, this technique, as
will be seen, has some operational merits and it may be incorporated into some
series compensator schemes in the future, particularly when larger GTO thyristors
become available.

ABSTRACT

Many efforts have been devoted to system studies involving switched series compensation. While the majority of the interest has focused on thyristor switches, there has also been interest in advanced compensators involving other switching methods. In particular, a GTO controlled series capacitor (GTO-CSC) scheme was proposed by T.H.
Ortmeyer et al. (see ibid., vol.8, p.1348-55, 1993). Snubber design and fault performance for the GTO-CSC is developed in this paper, and a feasible circuit design is proposed.
