For Compensation
In an ideal ac system, the main points of
consideration are:
Voltage
Frequency
Power factor
Consumer load
Objectives In Load Compensation
Load compensation is the management of reactive
power to improve the quality of supply in ac power
systems.
In load compensation there are three main objectives:
Power factor correction
Improvement of voltage regulation
Load balancing
Power factor correction
Improvement of Voltage regulation
Voltage regulation becomes an important and
sometimes critical issue in the presence of loads
which vary their demand for reactive power.
The variation in demand for reactive power causes
variation in the voltage at the supply point.
Compensating devices have a vital role to play in
maintaining supply voltages within the intended
limits.
Two basic categories of voltage regulation are:
line regulation
load regulation
Supply tariff
The size of the load
Uncompensated power-factor
