However, since reactive power produced by compensators with capacitor banks has a stepwise change, it is almost impossible to reach the unity power factor.

Since capacitors have a leading power factor, and reactive power is not a constant power, designing a capacitor bank must consider different reactive power needs. For example, the configuration for a 5-stage capacitor bank with a 170 KVAR maximum reactive power rating could be 1:1:1:1:1, meaning 5*34 KVAR or 1:2:2:4:8 with 1 as 10 KVAR.

Learn MoreReactive power compensators: To control the system voltage, an additional reactive power is supplied to the system. Such devices are called reactive power compensator. Compensation cost: Cost asked by the power seller for providing the compensation in system.
The circuit diagram of compensation capacitors and peripheral hardware in the implemented hybrid reactive power compensation system is also given in Fig. 7. As can be seen in this figure, there are six single-phase and two three-phase capacitors. Rated powers of each capacitor are also shown in the same figure.
But, as soon as the disturbances occur in IHES at t = 1 s, FC alone is not capable to support the system for this dynamic compensation requirement. On the other side, if cost of compensation is not a constraint for adopting reactive power compensation method, STATCOM can alone be used for providing reactive power compensator.
The controller, after some calculations, decides on the capacitor stages closest to these powers and activates them. However, after the capacitors are switched on/off, unlike conventional capacitor switched compensation systems, the reactive powers drawn from each phase of the grid must be of the same type.
To verify this statement and to check any feasibility of using single static compensators for dynamic changes, only fixed capacitor is connected as reactive power compensator. A simulink model is developed in MATLAB simulink toolbox window for the IHES components as shown in Fig. 4 except the STATCOM block.
For deciding the optimize participation of static and dynamic compensators, number of samples for reactive power generation from fixed capacitor and STATCOM are developed satisfying Eq. ( 52) by gradually increasing reactive power generation through fixed capacitor and decreasing reactive power generation through STATCOM.
