Integration of microgrid system with the conventional grid system is an alternative solution to fulfill the power demand in a Wide Area Measurement System. However, the microgrid connected to a grid system has many challenges like voltage sag, voltage unbalancing and power loss due the Distributed Generating (DG) sources used in the microgrid. The main objective of this paper is to model a microgrid system with Distributed Generating (DG) sources and Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) to enhance the voltage profile and power flow and to reduce the power loss of the system. In this paper, a real-valued Damodar Valley Corporation grid-connected microgrid system with STATCOM controller is formed with the help of Power System Analysis Toolbox software and the voltage profile and power loss of the system are observed.
