Abstract

For capacitor shunt placement the proposed methods do not consider the following conditions; there are few measures and the first compensation points are easily over compensation in distribution networks. So this paper proposes a practical method that can full of utilize the available measures and avoid over compensation for the first compensation point. First, the non-measured measures are evaluated by the improved matching power flow. Secondly, the step-by-step reactive power programming method based on sensitivity is used to find compensation location and capacity. Finally, the cycle compensation method is used to eliminate over compensation and better compensation results are get. The practical 85 nodes feeder verifies the accuracy and practical for the proposed algorithm.
