Abstract

Abstract A power adjustment apparatus includes a phase shifter including a stator having a stator winding and a rotor having a rotor winding, a winding terminal of one of the stator winding and the rotor winding being connected to a power-system bus, and a winding terminal of the other being connected to the power-system bus via an impedance load, a driver axially coupled to the rotor to drive the rotor, and a controller which gives the driver a command value to adjust the phase difference between the stator and the rotor to a desired value.
