Abstract :
A fast response, electronically controlled, continuously variable, equivalent capacitive reactance for series compensation of a utility transmission line is described. Unlike compensation by series dielectric capacitors, there is no fear of subsynchronous resonance (SSR) instability. A high level of compensation is possible because there is no danger of forced resonance by the supply frequency. Experimental and digital simulation results are presented
