This paper proposes a voltage compensation device direct control strategy to realize the distributed, autonomous voltage control of the distribution system, which based on voltage data collected from customers of the remote site under the ubiquitous-based distribution system. In the proposed method, The ULTC and the SVR(Step Voltage Regulator)s compensate autonomously the voltage for self-compensation area based on the voltage data furnished from the ubiquitous device of customers. Also, the SVRs overcome the limit of single-operation of ULTC by the interlocking operation with the ULTC and enhance the voltage compensation capability for the customer. In particular, an optimization design method and a fuzzy design method are compared to determine the effective control method of the voltage compensator under the ubiquitous-based on-line operation environments. In fuzzy method, the tap of voltage compensator is defined as output member. Finally, the proposed two methods are implemented in Visual C++ MFC, the effectiveness is proved by simulation based on the worst virtual voltage data. Also, an optimal voltage compensation strategy is determined under on-line environments based on analyzed results.
