In Modern Power System power quality is the main issue of the power companies. Improvement of power quality in distribution system using photovoltaic based DPFC is declared in this paper. Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) device which is known as distributed power flow controller (DPFC)is used. DPFC is derived from UPFC by eliminating common dc link between series and shunt converter. Unified power flow controller (UPFC) is widely used and control all parameters of the system. The UPFC handle the current and voltage with high rating; therefore, the cost of system is high. Therefore, distributed power flow controller (DPFC) is used due to high control capability, high Reliability & low cost. DPFC also measures the transmission angle, line impedance and bus voltage. In distribution system problems occur like voltage sag/swell, Harmonics etc. Photovoltaic system is used as source for DPFC.
