On the Location of Series Capacitors in Series -Compensated Power Systems

In this paper，the location of ser1es capacitors in power transmission systems,It is investigated. Under no-load condition in power systems，it is proved that the ser1es capacitors shoud be located on the side ofthe sending end. On the other hand，this paper points out that in contrast with positive Ferranti phenomena has been known as Ferranti effect since ear1y period negative Ferranti phenomena which causes voltage drop at the receiving end under no-load and excessive oompensation conditions exists，and a1so desoribes on the merits and demerits
