AI Customer ServiceA compromise of setting values, determined with— and without—capacitors, would necessarily be required. The regulator compensator has no way of knowing that the capacitor current does not flow through the impedance of the line, thus it has no chance to improve the voltage along it.
When used with a voltage regulator, the motor can run automatically over-excited at high-load current and under-excited at low-load current. The cost of installation of synchronous compensators is high compared to capacitors, and the electrical losses are considerable relative to capacitors.
Voltage mode parallel active compensators have one significant disadvantage: the power factor depends on the load’s active power and line voltage. This causes PF deterioration, especially in the case of line voltage dips and swells (although the load voltage in PCC still is stable).
The voltage drop to the point mentioned, i.e., the center of regulation (rather than the center of load), is translated into regulator compensator values set to continuously maintain these voltage conditions.
Series capacitors are very effective when the total line reactance is high. Series capacitors are effective to compensate for voltage drop and voltage fluctuations. Series capacitors are of little value when the reactive power requirements of the load are small.
Parallel Active Power Compensators (APC) seem to have been a very widely discussed matter of many publications in the last 20 years [ 1 – 7 ]. The features of these devices can be considered in respect to a few aspects, such as power stage structure, reference current calculation and control method, overall cost of application, number of functions.
