Answer / rashid al-hadifi
Series capacitive (series compensation).
To reduce the total reactive power(MVAR)loss.
Shunt capacitive (Shunt compensation).
To improve system power factor.

Answer / chatinder
shunt compensation is to improve voltage profile.....series compensation is for system stability.

Answer / kailas vanvas singade
Series compensation reduces risk factor hence it is used to hit the current thermal limit.

Answer / monali bhise
Shunt compensation improves power factor of load whereas series compensation has very little effect on load power factor. For a long transmission line where total reactance is large, series capacitors are more effective for improvement of stability.

Answer / mirza
In series compensation voltage is injected into the transmission line while in shunt current is injected....

Answer / anurag_jammed@yahoo.co.in
by compensation we mean reducing losses,if the load at user
end is inductive in nature we use shunt compensation
(capacitive in nature) while if the load at user end is
capacitive we use series compensation(inductive in nature)
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 10 Yes | 25 No |
Answer / saida
compensation is required to put the constant voltage at
receiving end.
the both series and shunt commentators are same but in the
case of series compensator the losses will be more.

How to calculate KW what is the formula for KW.
generally in LT and MV motors we are using 3.5Coresx16,25,35,50 etc cable for supply.although motors is earthed at two point and having all protection.then why we are using that 1/2 core for earthing the motors.while in HT cable we are using only 3core cable for motor supply.generally lt and mv motors are delta connected and ht motors having star connection.whethere it is having any relation with winding connection( star or delta).all motors i am talking about are dol only.can anybody solve my confusion.thanks...
We know that primary transmission is done to reduce current so that i^2*r loss could be minimised but according to ohm's law v is directly proportional to i,which indirectly means higher potential difference means larger current?so how the current is minimised in high power transmission line??
plz tell me about detailof induction motor Slip
