The location of the series capacitor depends on the economic and technical consideration of the line. The series capacitor may be located at the sending end, receiving end, or at the center of the line. Sometimes they are located at two or more points along the line.

Series compensation is a well established technology that is primarily used to reduce transfer reactances, most notably in bulk transmission corridors. The result is a significant increase in power transfer capacity and improvement of voltage and angular stability in transmission systems.
Series compensation involves inserting a capacitor bank in series with each of the three phases of the transmission line. The ohmic value of the capacitor is chosen to compensate for a certain percentage of the line''s
Each series compensation bank is protected by metal-oxide varistors (MOV1 and MOV2). The two circuit breakers of line 1 are shown as CB1 and CB2. This power system is available in the Three-Phase Series Compensated Network model. Load this model and save it in your working directory as case1 to allow further modifications to the original system. Compare the Simscape™
Thyristor‐controlled series capacitors (TCSCs) introduces a number of important benefits in the application of series compensation such as, elimination of sub‐synchronous resonance (SSR) risk, damping of active power oscillations, post‐contingency stability improvement, and dynamic power flow control. Variable impedance‐type series
Typically, series capacitors are applied to compensate for 25 to 75 per-cent of the inductive reactance of the transmission line. The series capacitors are exposed to a wide range of currents as depicted in Figure 1, which can result in large voltages across the capacitors.

Compensation capacitors are used to counteract reactive current (increased power factor) and are basically either connected in parallel or in series. Compensation capa-citors are not required
This means that during the fault, the series capacitor has to endure that part of the fault current which flows through it, without any damage to the series capacitor. To enable this, the ZnO varistor protecting the series capacitor must have sufficient thermal capacity to withstand the heating caused by the fault current for as long as it flows through the circuit.
Series compensation is the method of improving the system voltage by connecting a capacitor in series with the transmission line. In other words, in series compensation, reactive power is inserted in series with the transmission line for improving the impedance of the system. Thus, it improves the power transfer capability of the line. Series

It can limit the amplitude and frequency of the discharge current of series capacitors when SC is bypassed by spark gap or bypass switch. 2.2 Overvoltage Protection. As shown in Fig. 1, MOV is used to limit the overvoltage across the series capacitor during power system faults. The spark gap will be triggered to bypass capacitor banks. As a consequence,
Charge on this equivalent capacitor is the same as the charge on any capacitor in a series combination: That is, all capacitors of a series combination have the same charge. This occurs due to the conservation of charge in the circuit. When a charge
The series capacitors are exposed to a wide range of currents, which can result in large voltages across the capacitors. Thus additional equipment is usually applied to protect the capacitors.

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.

Load division increases the power transfer capability of the system and reduced losses. Control of Voltage – In series capacitor, there is an automatic change in Var (reactive power) with the change in load current. Thus the drops in voltage levels due to sudden load variations are corrected instantly.
