Abstract :
This paper discusses the use of EHV shunt reactors on transmission systems from the application and reactor design viewpoints. Various factors relating to reactor construction, including testing, are discussed, and emphasis is placed on a gapped-core design for EHV applications. The results of steady-state and transient performance studies for this design are presented.
