Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC)

A Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC) is a power system device that adjusts the flow of electricity in a transmission line. It uses electronic components called thyristors to rapidly change the amount of capacitance in the line, helping to stabilize voltage, improve power transfer, and reduce congestion. By controlling these electrical properties, TCSC enhances the efficiency and reliability of the power grid, allowing it to better manage varying demand and prevent issues like outages or overloads in the system.
