2. TYPES OF POWER
ACTIVE POWER: It is power that does actual work - e.g: creating heat, lifting
loads, etc. (unit-KW)
REACTIVE POWER: It is the power that doesn't do any real work.-e.g: Current
that charges a capacitor, or current that creates the magnetic field around a coil for
another. (unit- KVAR)
APPARENT POWER: It is the mathematical combination of these two.(REAL +
REACTIVE) .(Unit-KVA)
3. ANALOGY OF POWER
• ACTIVE POWER=
CHIPS
• REACTIVE
POWER=AIR
• APPARENT
POWER=WHOLE

5. Necessity of Reactive power
Real power accomplishes useful work while reactive power
supports the voltage that must be controlled for system
reliability. so the reactive power affects voltages throughout
the system.
If voltage on the system is not high enough, active power
cannot be supplied.
Motor loads and other loads require reactive power to convert
the flow of electrons into useful work.
It required to establish the magnetic and/or electric fields so
that energy conversion can take place.
Due to reactive power transformer transform the power.
6. Need of compensation of reactive power
Power factor improvement: It regulate the power factor of the system and
maintain the voltage stability we need to compensate reactive power .
Minimize the losses: It reduces the copper loss by minimizing current flow
through line.
Improving generator capability: reactive power production can limit a
generator’s real power capability.
Quality of power improvement: it helps in maintaining the voltage profile
Blackouts : dangerous black out may occure due improper compensation
7. 2012 blackout in india
2 days total outage of supply(30th and 31st july)
Over 600 million people suffered.
Over 250 electric train stopped before reaching
the platform.
Loss of Over 11,00,00,00,000 rupee(1100 cores).

THE POWER OF REACTIVE POWER
9. How to compensate reactive power
Shunt compensation:
• connected in parallel in the system
• Mainly used for power factor correction
• Also known as load compensator
Series compensation :
• Connected in series in the line
• Mainly used for boosting the receiving voltage
• Self regulating type live compensator

Shunt compensation of reactive power can be employed either at load level,
substation level or at transmission level.
Compensation should be provided as close as possible to the
consumption point to avoid having to distribute this power
in the other part of network.
Location is primarily determined by the reason for compensation.

12. Facts devices
( Flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS) ):
STATIC VAR COMPENSATOR:
A static VAR compensator (or SVC) is an electrical
device for providing reactive power on
transmission networks. The term "static" refers to the
fact that the SVC has no moving parts.
The SVC is an automated impedance matching device,
designed to bring the system closer to unity power
factor.
Under inductive (lagging) conditions, the capacitor
banks are automatically switched in, thus providing a
higher system voltage.
ADVANTAGES:
They are more reliable .
Faster in operation .
Smoother control and more flexibility can be provided
with the help of thyristors.
14. STATCOM (STATIC SYNCHRONOUS
COMPENSATER):
The devices use synchronous voltage sources for generating
or absorbing reactive power. A synchronous voltage source
(SVS) is constructed using a voltage source converter (VSC).
Such a shunt compensating device is called static
compensator or STATCOM .
ADVNTAGES:
The reactive components used in the STATCOM are much
smaller than those in the SVC.
The characteristics of STATCOM are superior. .
Reduction of harmonic filter capacity.
Reduction of size of high value air-cored reactor.
Reduction of equipment volume and foot-print.
STATCOM
15. Synchronous Condenser ;
A device whose main function is the improvement of pf of the electrical system is known as
the synchronous condenser. It is installed at the receiving end of the line .
When a synchronous condenser is introduced it supplies the kVAR to the system , and hence
the current is reduced .
Therefore the losses are reduced and provides a better efficiency . Hence more power can be
delivered to the load and improves the pf of the system.
ADVANTAGES:
Easy to use and maintenance.
Power factor is improved
automatically .
17. new generation of FACTS DEVICES:
Thyristor-Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC)
Thyristor-Controlled Phase Shifter (TCPS)
Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC)
Dynamic power flow controller (DPFC).
Fault current limiter (FCL).
Super Conducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES)-
- (Controls voltage and power)
Static Synchronous Series Controller (SSSC)
Benefits :
•Better utilization of existing transmission system assets
•Increased transmission system reliability and availability
•Increased dynamic and transient grid stability and reduction of loop flows
•Increased quality of supply for sensitive industries
•Environmental benefits Better utilization of existing transmission system assets

18. Future of reactive power compensation in INDIA
Its been 20 years of The first FACTS device installed in India is
Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC) with Fixed
Series Compensation (FSC) at 400 kV transmission line
between Kanpur (U.P) and Ballabgarh (Haryana) in the
Northern Grid.
Siemens receives order for largest Statcom reactive power compensation project
in India Erlangen, 2016-Jun-27.
The total estimated cost of Statcom project is Rs 704 Cores and
it will plan located in different parts of India from north to
south.
Raipur-Rourkela 400 kV, D/C ,412 Km transmission line with FSC-TCSC installed
Punjab signed agreement with Korean company (The boltz)
For reactive power compensation in 2015 December.
19. Conclusion:
In developing nation like India, power demand in near
future is very high and to meet this increased power
demand; not only installed capacity has to be increased but also transmission
network to be strengthened.
With the installation of Fixed Series Capacitor with TCSC
improve dynamic performance under various
contingencies of operation and may avoid disintegration
of grid as faced a number of times in the past.
Under Indian circumstances, it is important to utilize existing
systems as efficiently as possible, to increase both the
capacity and the quality of present transmission networks,
even if for limited period, through various innovative
methods with minimum investment.
