This document discusses static shunt compensation on transmission lines. Shunt compensation can increase steady-state transmittable power and control voltage profiles by using shunt reactors to minimize overvoltage under light loads and shunt capacitors to maintain voltage levels under heavy loads. Midpoint shunt compensation regulates voltage along line segments by exchanging only reactive power at the midpoint, significantly increasing transmittable power as the midpoint has the maximum voltage sag. End of line shunt compensation also provides voltage support to prevent instability.

- 2. OBJECTIVES OF SHUNT COMPENSATION Steady-state transmittable power can be increased. Voltage profile can be controlled. Shunt connected reactors (fixed or mechanically switched) are applied to minimize line over voltage under light load conditions. Shunt connected capacitors are applied to maintain voltage levels under heavy load conditions. 2
