Owing to discontinuous current in a thyristor-controlled reactor (TCR) of a static VAR compensator, harmonic currents are generated in the supply system. The paper presents a new method for reducing these harmonics. In the method used, the TCR is fed through the sequentially controlled transformer taps. Two alternative approaches of sequence control of transformer taps are described. The feasibility of the proposed method has been verified experimentally.
