Capacitors on the transmission system
Capacitors on the transmission system
(OP)
What considerations do we have to take into account when recommending capacitors to improve loss on the transmission system? Where should be place them? What size would be safe to avoid harmonics? etc.. Thanks

Mr.Donkyboy!!!!
Are you talking about series compensated line?
Thanks

Usually series capacitors could be installed at line terminals, two capacitors at 1/3 and 2/3 of the line or one capacitor placed in the middle of the line
Harmonic may have negative impact but usually is not a major problem on transmission systems. Higher short circuit currents and Sub-synchronous resonance issues may be a concern to be addressed. Reactors and power system stabilizers at generators could be used as a mitigating strategy.
