Abstract :
Nonuniform load growth, which sometimes results in excessive voltage drops in various parts of an electric power distribution system, caused engineers to consider extending the installation of voltage regulating devices to portions of the system beyond the station. As a result, several supplementary devices have been developed for use in distribution circuits between station and load. These devices and their applications are discussed in this paper.
