The present paper examines and tests an alternative method to control and redirect electric power flow through certain paths (transmission lines). The control and redirecting of power flow is achieved through the use of phase shift transformers PSTs. An algorithm is presented which searches for a proper phase shift angle introduced by a PST at any given location. The proposed method is based on modelling the PST and the power system employing Newton-Raphson load flow approach. Finally, the installation of series of PSTs on the interconnected power systems aims at mitigating uncontrolled parallel flows and unbalanced sharing of power among transmission lines. The obtained results showed the effectiveness of the proposed method in sharing and controlling the electrical power flow among different interties of the 5-bus network on which the study applied.
