Abstract
This paper concerns the application of static reactive compensators (SVCs) to Power transmission systems. Emphasis is placed on stability, and it is shown that SVCs can provide significant benefits in terms of increased transient stabilty liisand improved damping for synchronizing power flow oscillations. The paper includes descriptions Of static VAR compensators, with technical and economic comparisons of different compensators. An SVC system study model is presented which includes provision for modulating reactive compensation in response to a variety of system functions. Study procedures are illustrated which relate sYstem stability objectives to general specifications of SVCs, indluding their locations, regulating slopes, peak reactive power requirements, and modulation control.Keywords
