A discussion of their effect on the overall protection used on series compensated lines. First, however, a brief review will be presented on the application and protection of series capacitors. Series capacitors are applied to negate a percentage of and hence reduce the overall inductive reac-tance of a transmission line.
The introduction of series capacitors in transmission lines causes problems in terms of reliability and the security of distance protection relays. As distance protection is widely used in the transmission network, the challenge of applying it to series compensated lines has been taken up by utilities and relay manufacturers in various ways.
Distance protection is widely used in transmission lines, but it can be strongly affected by series capacitors. This section briefly describes some special phenomena that can occur during faults in series compensated lines, and their adverse effect on distance protection.
Solutions described in relay manuals are presented to demonstrate the manufacturers’ approaches to problems associated with series capacitor protection. While there are methods to counter voltage inversion, current inversion seems to represent a more serious challenge.
In addition, as the series capacitor is related to the power transfer capacity of a transmission line, the removal of the capacitor during a fault can further jeopardize system stability. 4. Factors Influencing Effects of Series Capacitors
The compensation level ranges from 20–44%, and the series capacitors are located variously at the line end or middle in the different lines [ 51 ]. Voltage inversion is present in their system, but not current inversion [ 51 ]. The protection scheme was developed with extensive real-time simulation.
Therefore capacitors in series behave like resistors in parallel. Their value is found via the reciprocal of summed reciprocals or the product-sum rule. Figure 8.2.8 : Capacitor data sheet. Courtesy of Panasonic. Example …
