Abstract: Conventional high-voltage direct current (HVDC) systems based on line-commutated converters (LCC) are prone to commutation failures and consume excessive reactive power during AC grid faults. The controllable line-commutated converter (CLCC) was developed to solve these problems. To further investigate CLCC's practical application in the AC system, this paper proposes a fixed AC voltage control strategy for the inverter-side CLCC. A hybrid LCC-CLCC HVDC transmission system model is built in PSCAD. Simulations are performed under three-phase short-circuit faults and wind power fluctuation scenarios. The results show that, unlike traditional LCC, the CLCC under the proposed control can actively increase its firing angle over 160 degrees during disturbances. This action injects dynamic reactive power into the grid and significantly reduces the AC bus voltage drop. Especially in weak grid conditions, CLCC can greatly reduce reactive power consumption through wide-range active adjustment of the firing angle, thereby improving voltage stability.
