This unit covers (1) voltage control measures; switching control; automatic excitation control; transformers off-nominal tap position control; shunt reactors and capacitors; static VAR compensators; and voltage control in layered power networks; (2) reactive-power balances in transmission networks; dependence on the active-power transmission level; control of reactive-power flows; automatic reactive power compensation; modelling of compensators related to steady-state operation; voltage control response of compensators; compensators for countering the effects of pronounced load unbalance; and reactive-power compensators in transient operating modes; (3) frequency control; measures of... -- Course Website
