    Abstract :

    This paper present performance analysis of different type of conventional controllers for Automatic Voltage Regulator. The main purpose of the AVR is to control the terminal voltage of synchronous generator. Synchronous generator is the main component of AVR. Synchronous generator is a significant share in providing energy for electrical networks. The modeled system composed of the amplifier, exciter, generator and sensor. In this paper, Simulation of the Automatic Voltage Regulator is carried out by using PID controller, Cascade controller and Internal Model controller(IMC) and the results are presented. Due to inherent disadvantages of PID controller, Internal model based controller has been employed to regulate the terminal voltage of synchronous generator. Also, comparative analyses of different conventional controllers are proposed. The designed controller effectively regulates the terminal voltage of synchronous generator to a desired set point.
