Abstract: In modern power system many protection equipment are connected in complex network. They are interconnected with each other. The rising demand of power and difficulties of constructing a newly transmission network causes the power system to be complex and stressed. Due to the stress in the power system there is a chance of losing the stability following to the fault. To reduced this problem use Flexible Ac Transmission System (FACTS) devices which is uses power electronics components to maintain controllability and capability of electrical power system .After introducing the facts technology, power flow along the transmission lines becomes more flexible and controllable .Facts devices (i.e. TCSC, SVC, STATCOM, AND UPFC) are able to modify voltage, phase angle and impedance at particular bus in a power system. (UPFC) Unified power flow controller is more popular device. It has enhances the control method using advanced semiconductor switching. It can absorb and release real and reactive power. It has emerged for the control and optimization of power flow in electrical power transmission system. The aim of the paper is to maintained voltage, magnitude, phase angle and Power factor. Simulation result will be carry out in MATLAB/ SIMULATION software and check it performs.
