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. Figure 2 Phasor diagram of transmission line with series compensation. Series capacitors also improve the power transfer ability.
From practical point of view, it is desirable not to exceed series compensation beyond 80%. If the line is 100% compensated, it will behave as a purely resistive element and would cause series resonance even at fundamental frequency. The location of series capacitors is decided by economical factors and severity of fault currents.
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.
Series capacitors also help in balancing the voltage drop of two parallel lines. When series compensation is used, there are chances of sustained overvoltage to the ground at the series capacitor terminals. This overvoltage can be the power limiting criterion at high degree of compensation.
Series capacitors also improve the power transfer ability. The power transferred with series Compensation as where, is the phase angle between V S and V R; Hence capacitors in series are used for long EHV transmission system to improve power transfer ability (stability limit).
The recommended value of degree of compensation is 25 to 75 Series capacitors are installed either at both ends of the EHV and UHV transmission line i.e. at sending end and receiving end sub-station or in an intermediate compensating switching sub-station.
