When reactive power devices, whether capacitive or inductive, are purposefully added to a power network in order to produce a specific outcome, this is referred to as compensation. It’s as simple as that. This could involve greater transmission capacity, enhanced stability performance, and enhanced voltage profiles as well.

Reactive compensation keeps on balancing reactive powers to maximize delivery of active power in a system. In most cases, the compensation is capacitive. A system may use capacitors in parallel (shunt) to line, or it may be in series, incorporated in
Customer ServiceStatic var compensator system provides dynamic reactive power and is directly connected to the bus of an electric appliance. Maximum SVC''s reactive power is generated by capacitors of harmonic filters and is
Customer ServiceSeries capacitors are of little value when the reactive power requirements of the load are small. In cases where thermal considerations limit the line current, series capacitors are of little value since the reduction in line current associated with them is relatively small.
Customer ServiceCapacitor Banks: In this method, a bank of capacitors forms a connection across the load. As we know that the capacitor takes the leading reactive power, thus this causes the decrease in power taken from the source. This resultantly improves the value of the power factor of the system. This is further classified as series and shunt compensation.

Customer ServiceLoad division increases the power transfer capability of the system and reduced losses. Control of Voltage – In series capacitor, there is an automatic change in Var (reactive power) with the change in load current. Thus the drops in voltage levels due to sudden load variations are corrected instantly.
Control of Voltage – In series capacitor, there is an automatic change in Var (reactive power) with the change in load current. Thus the drops in voltage levels due to sudden load variations are corrected instantly. The location of the series capacitor depends on the economic and technical consideration of the line.
Series capacitors are very effective when the total line reactance is high. Series capacitors are effective to compensate for voltage drop and voltage fluctuations. Series capacitors are of little value when the reactive power requirements of the load are small.
As we know that the capacitor takes the leading reactive power, thus this causes the decrease in power taken from the source. This resultantly improves the value of the power factor of the system. This is further classified as series and shunt compensation. Suppose we have a circuit shown here,
Series capacitors are of little value when the reactive power requirements of the load are small. In cases where thermal considerations limit the line current, series capacitors are of little value since the reduction in line current associated with them is relatively small.
Load Division among Parallel Line – Series capacitors are used in transmission systems for improving the load division between parallel lines. When the new line with large power transfer capability is paralleled with an already existing line, then it is difficult to load the new line without overloading the old line.
