Abstract :
The research work deals with the optimum placement of the compensating device (FACTS device) to improve the performance of existing transmission lines. The transmission line parameters have been obtained and analysis has been done on that parameters. The results reveal that: Power transfer capability and voltage profile of transmission line is improved with compensating device. Also the effect of location of compensating device on transmission line is studied. Moreover the software package developed using MatLab is found to be quite useful as its working is independent of transmission line length and impedance of series/shunt/series-shunt compensating device. The results demonstrate the performance of transmission line when the location of compensating device is varied.
