Abstract: Series capacitive compensation method is very well known and it has been widely applied on transmission grids; the basic principle is capacitive compensation of portion of the inductive reactance of the electrical transmission, which will result in increased power transfer capability of the compensated transmissible line.
Typically, series capacitors are applied to compensate for 25 to 75 per-cent of the inductive reactance of the transmission line. The series capacitors are exposed to a wide range of currents as depicted in Figure 1, which can result in large voltages across the capacitors.
The “effectiveness” of a series capacitance is determined using the distributed parameter theory of transmission lines. It provides a measure of how well the receiving end voltage of a transmission line is maintained depending on the placement of the series capacitor from the sending end.
A discussion of their effect on the overall protection used on series compensated lines. First, however, a brief review will be presented on the application and protection of series capacitors. Series capacitors are applied to negate a percentage of and hence reduce the overall inductive reac-tance of a transmission line.
Series capacitor installations can be installed mid-line, either a single unit at the mid-point or two units each a third of the way along the line, or they can be installed at the line ends with bus-side or line-side shunt reactors. The topologies are shown in Figure 6-4, Figure 6-5, Figure 6-2, and Figure 6-1.
Due to the effect of series capacitor the receiving end voltage will be instead of VR as seen from the phasor diagram (Figure 2). Thus with series capacitor in the circuit the voltage drop in the line is reduced and receiving end voltage on full load is improved. Series capacitors improve voltage profile.
