    Voltage Profile Enhancement on the Nigerian 330-KV Grid Using Series -Shunt Reactive Power Compensation Technique.
    (Bells University of Technology, Ota., 2020-06-10) SALAMI, Hamed Temitope; Prof. R. L. Salawu
    The Nigeria 330 kv power systems is characterized with major constraint such as low voltage profile and power loses resulting to negative effects on power generation and transmission systems. The aim of this study is to enhance the Nigeria 330-kv grid voltage profile using combined series and shunt compensation for enhancing the operation of the system. The load flow study using Newton -Raphson -based method was carried out to analyze the steady state operation of the system for the base case ,as this method convergence faster and its simplicity attribute as compared to their solution methods . The series compensation was incorporated, followed by the shunt compensation and then combined series and shunt compensation were incorporated inro system in sequential order. Capacitor Banks sizing was analyzed and adequate placed at the affected buses to inject more reactive power necessary to increase the voltage profile of the affected lines. MATLAB/SIMULINK software was used to carry out the simulation analysis
