The goal of this research is to compare several FACTS (Flexible AC Transmission Systems) controllers in order to enhance power quality in contemporary electrical networks. With the use of power electronics and static equipment, FACTS controllers provide more control over the parameters of AC transmission, including voltage, phase angle, and impedance. FACTS controllers are divided into kinds based on variable impedance and Voltage Source Converter (VSC), such as Unified Power Flow Controllers (UPFC), Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitors (TCSC), Static Synchronous Compensators (STATCOM), and Static VAR Compensators (SVC). Every sort of controller is essential for reducing power quality problems like harmonic distortion and voltage instability, which raises the overall efficiency and dependability of the system. In order to assess and contrast various controllers according to standards including voltage regulation, reactive power compensation, and dynamic response, the study makes use of simulation models and real-world case studies
