This paper presents a methodology for representing FACTS (Flexible AC Transmission System) devices such as phase shifters and series compensation in power system operation. The proposed approach is based on mathematical decomposition and network compensation techniques. It is possible to incorporate existing optimal power flow algorithms, thus taking advantage of accumulated experience in optimization methods and reducing software development costs. A case study with a Brazilian-derived system is presented and discussed.
