VAR compensation is defined as the management of reactive power to improve the performance ofac power systems. The concept of VAR compensation embraces a wide and diverse field of both system and customer problems, especially related with power quality issues, since most of power quality problems can be attenuated or solved with an adequate control of reactive power. VAR compensation in transmission systems also improves the stability of the ac system by increasing the maximum active power that can be transmitted. It also helps to maintain a substantially fiat voltage profile at all levels of power transmission. BPS is currently facing problems in few 132 grid points where the thermal limits of transmission are often exceeded.
