This paper introduces the capacitor bank equipped with overvoltage protection and overcurrent protection. Then with a group of capacitor for reactive power compensation as the research object, this paper analyses the influence of harmonic to the two protection modes when the electromagnetic, static or microcomputer relay are applied.
Thus, the power transfer is doubled by 50 % compensation. Improvement in System Stability – For same power transfer and for the same value of sending and receiving end voltage, the phase angle δ in the case of the series impedance line is less that for the uncompensated line.The reduced value of δ gives higher stability. Load Division among …

Example 2 – Capacitive Power With k Factor. The capacitive power can be determined with the factor k for a given effective power.The k factor is read from a table 1 – Multipliers to determine capacitor kilovars required for power factor correction and multiplied by the effective power.The result is the required capacitive power.
Fig. 1a shows a typical three-phase distribution system, in which a group of inductive linear load, non-linear load and shunt power capacitor are connected simultaneously. Shunt power capacitor C P is used to compensate for the main inductive current generated by the linear load, while D-CAP to compensate for the rest inductive …
With reactive power compensation, transmission efficiency is increased. Along with this, the steady-state and temporary overvoltages can be regulated that resultantly avoids disastrous blackouts. ... This can be formed in two ways, one with the parallel combination of thyristor controlled reactor and fixed capacitor while the other one is the ...
In some cases, special circuits are used to measure the reactive power. For example, the reactive power measurement can be performed with compensation capacitors to determine the amount of reactive power compensation. Here, capacitors are added or removed to minimize the phase shift angle and thus compensate for the reactive power.
