This paper presents a study of the dynamic performance analysis of an Advanced Static Var Compensator (ASVC) using
a three-level voltage source inverter. The analysis is based on the modelling of the system in the d - q axis. The dynamic
behaviour of the system is analysed using P-spice (Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis) as a simulation
program. Various transient simulation results are reported and discussed.
