In a transmission system, the maximum active power transferable over a certain power line is inversely proportional to the series reactance of the line. Thus, by compensating the series reactance to a certain degree, using a series capacitor, an electrically shorter line is realized and higher active power transfer is achieved.
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.
