This paper discusses comprehensively the dynamic performance of the FACTS control devices in multiple operations, hardware needed to complement the simulated models. This paper also presents the schematic and basic control of reconfigurable FACTS devices to realize the major voltage source converter FACTS Topologies: 1. STA TCOM (static compensator) 2. SSSC (Static synchronous Series compensator) 3. UPFC (Unified power flow controller) Furthermore, these control paradigms proposed in three prompt strategic directions to overcome outdated conventional control and other power control flaws in Pakistan power utilities wherein, including our neighboring countries (Iran, KSA, and India), and world-at-large, the FACTS been installed and in operation successfully. Whereas, Pakistan desperately needs this technology to hedge its power utilities to meet forthcoming challenges in power industry likewise significant growth in industry as well as domestic users under the declaration of government electrifying Pakistan 2007 to tap out power to its all rural areas by undertaking all possible means. Henceforth, the FACTS technology is an instrumental solution which will play vital and viable role to make this decree possible in following streams in parallel as listed below. 1. Set-up FACTS Laboratory at UET to develop prototype devices 2. FACTS feasibility study 3. Pilot project (at most contaminated area) This paper also culminates and enlists all three experiments results to encourage the elective/graduate course in electric power system.
