The article is aimed at studying the features of the hot rolling mill CWBRM-1700 of JSC “Qarmet”, which negatively affect the operation of the distribution network of the workshop. Such factors are frequent shock loads of technological mechanisms with high installed capacity of the equipment. Experimental studies of the distribution network of the rolling production on the buses of the 10 kV substation showed that shock loads of synchronous electric drives of roughing stands lead to periodic voltage drops of up to 13% lasting 5–6 s. Mathematical modeling in the MATLAB/Simscape/Electrical environment, the results of which coincide with the data of the experimental study, showed that the most significant factor affecting the quality of electricity are abrupt changes in the reactive power of the synchronous motor from −0.5 to +0.5 MVAR. To solve the problem, it is proposed to use a controlled filter-compensating device. Variants of circuit solutions for such devices are considered. The choice was made in favor of a three-phase adjustable LLC filter with diode–transistor keys. The article develops a method for calculating the electromagnetic parameters of such a filter and establishes that in order to reduce the level of harmonic distortion of voltage, it is necessary to use a triangle connection of the controlled reactive compensator and select the PWM frequency of the transistors, a multiple of the tripled frequency of the power grid. Two options for creating a closed-loop control system for energy modes are studied: a reactive power stabilization system and a voltage stabilization system in a distribution network node, which reduce the duration of transient processes to 0.5 s and reduce the voltage drop in the network node to −4 to + 1% in the first case and to −4 to + 3% in the second, also reducing reactive power consumption to 0.02 MVAR and 0.25 MVAR, respectively. The advantage of a closed-loop control system with voltage stabilization is the ability to use a technically less complex voltage sensor.
