The growing need for reactive power compensation. With the growing prevalence of power systems that incorporate intermittent renewable energy sources, reactive power compensation is essential to ensure that the system is stable and operates within required stability limits. These limits usually form part of the Grid Code that applies to the system.
Capacitors are used to compensate for the reactive power generated by inductors, which is the principle of reactive power compensation. This article is provided by JYH HSU (JEC) Electronics. JEC is a research, development, production, and sales-oriented company specializing in manufacturing and selling various electronic components such as ...
Reactive power compensation is important for efficient and reliable power system operation. Various devices are used to control reactive power flow and voltage, including synchronous generators, transmission lines, transformers, loads, and reactive power sources like shunt capacitors and reactors. The objectives of reactive power compensation are to control voltages …
The reactive power absorbed by a transformer cannot be neglected, and can amount to (about) 5% of the transformer rating when supplying its full load. Compensation can be provided by a bank of capacitors. In transformers, reactive power is absorbed by both shunt (magnetizing) and series (leakage flux) reactances.
Since most loads are inductive and consume lagging reactive power, the compensation required is usually supplied by leading reactive power. Shunt compensation of reactive power can be employed either at load level, substation level, or at transmission level. It can be capacitive (leading) or inductive (lagging) reactive power, although in most ...
This paper explores the method of reactive power compensation using shunt capacitors for two cases. The first case involves a load fairly close to the AC source. The shunt capacitors are injected into the circuit by a logic circuit which uses the reactive power absorbed by the load, which are inductive in nature, as its input. The second case consists of a line loaded above its …

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.
Need for Reactive Power Compensation Reactive power generated by the ac power source is stored in a capacitor or a reactor during a quarter of a cycle and in the next quarter of the cycle it is sent back to the power source. Therefore the reactive power oscillates between the ac source and the capacitor or reactor at a frequency equals to two ...
