Abstract
Abstract: The paper determines the optimal location and size of capacitors on radial distribution systems to improve voltage profile and to reduce active power loss. Sizing and placement of capacitor was done by using Loss Sensitivity Factor. Capacitor placement plays an important role in operation and distribution system planning. The concept of loss sensitivity factor can be considered as the new contribution in the area of distribution systems. Loss sensitivity factor offer the important information about the sequence of potential nodes for capacitor placement. These factors are determined using single base case load flow study. The proposed method is tested on 15 and 33 bus distribution systems.
