Abstract: there are different ways to improve power quality problems in electrical power system. Among these the D-STATCOM is one of the most effective devices. A pulse width modulation scheme has been implemented to control the gates circuit of the DSTATCOM Controller. To improve the quality of power, active power filters have been proposed. The distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM) is a shunt active filter, which injects currents into the point of common coupling (PCC) (the common point where load, source, and DSTATCOM are connected) such that the harmonic filtering, power factor correction, and load balancing can be achieved. The DSTATCOM filters load current such that it meets the specifications for utility connection
