Abstract :
Performance of alternative power system series VAr compensation methods has been studied for typical transient torque and torsional interaction types of subsynchronous resonance (SSR) problems. The study compared conventional capacitor banks with banks which utilize thyristors to either control the level of series compensation or introduce SSR damping
