A discussion of their effect on the overall protection used on series compensated lines. First, however, a brief review will be presented on the application and protection of series capacitors. Series capacitors are applied to negate a percentage of and hence reduce the overall inductive reac-tance of a transmission line.
Thus with series capacitor in the circuit the voltage drop in the line is reduced and receiving end voltage on full load is improved. Series capacitors improve voltage profile. Figure 2 Phasor diagram of transmission line with series compensation. Series capacitors also improve the power transfer ability.
From practical point of view, it is desirable not to exceed series compensation beyond 80%. If the line is 100% compensated, it will behave as a purely resistive element and would cause series resonance even at fundamental frequency. The location of series capacitors is decided by economical factors and severity of fault currents.
The reduction of the series inductance of the transmission line by the addition of the series capaci-tor provides for increased line loading levels as well as increased stability margins. This is apparent by reviewing the basic power transfer equation for the simplified system shown in Figure 2. The power transfer equation is:
Series compensation may be installed in the middle of a transmission line or at one or both ends. In general, there are more protective relay complexities when the series capacitor is installed at the line end(s).
