Abstract. This study aims to determine the voltage losses on the 150 KV transmission line in
Cibatu and Mandirancan Sub-systems in the PLN APB West Java region. This study utilizes
the effect of the installation of Static VAR Compensator on voltage losses on a 150 KV
transmission line during peak load conditions. By knowing the characteristics of the system on
a channel that utilizes sensitivity to the addition of loads, the installation of SVC will have an
impact on the improvement of voltage losses on the transmission network. This study uses
simulations using ETAP software version 12.6. From the calculation simulation results that use
the actual data of APB West Java in the amount of voltage loss on the channel. While based on
the ETAP simulation results, there were improvements in voltage losses at Dawuan substation
by 13.56%. This proves that SVC installation on transmission lines can reduce voltage losses
in the Cibatu and Mandirancan Sub Systems.

1. Introduction
Electric power systems have to work optimally in serving loads that are volatile and the type of load.
The characteristics of the load greatly affect capacity and capability systems within transmit power.
Network configuration of a vast and growing also causes the operation of electric power systems
become complex and difficult to control.
In the planning and operation of electric power network stability system is an important aspect to
be considered. Power system must be operated with the aim of maintaining the channel power and the
voltage on each bus is at the limit of its operations. Change of reactive power is one of the causes is
not stable voltage in the system. For example not stable voltage and loss-power loss in the
transmission line. Loss-power loss on the larger system when the system is operating at maximum
load. On the conditions of the system can be stabilised by means of injecting or abortion reactive-
power condition, such as capacitor banks or equipment Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS).
FATCS working flexibly and directly usable for reactive power transfer which is very helpful in
the operation of electricity networks, performance power system can be improved by using the
FACTS, one of which with Static VAR Compensator (SVC). SCV is one of the most effective device
to increase the stability of the voltage and increase power transfer capability of transmission network.
For it should be mounted in place of the SVC that is correct with the appropriate parameters.
The purpose of this research is to know the characteristics of a system, so as to know the bus that is
sensitive to the addition of the load. From the bus SVC who later paired will correct the voltage profile
and influence on improvement of loss-loss of voltage on transmission line

2. Review of the literature

2.1. Electric power transmission

Electrical power from the plant channelled to various places via the transmission line. Voltage
transmission line in the system is 150 PLN, the so-called kV the air channels high voltage (SUTT) and
275-500 kV called extra high voltage air channels (SUTET). In America used the start voltage 115kV
to 756kV [1].
There is actually two possibility the construction of the transmission line that is above ground
channels (overhead) we call air duct, and underground (underground). Air duct length is usually up to
hundreds of kilometres. The conductor is a conductor used bare (without solid insulation) so he had to
be supported by insulators mounted on a tower. The channel associated with the air in around so it is
affected by natural conditions such as pollution and a lightning bolt. The transmission line must have
the flexibility to channel major resources through a number of routes. It must be designed in such a
way so that the failure of a small number the channel does not cause failure of the entire system. It
also should be able to serve as a liaison that is able to channel the energy into two directions.
Hardware that connects the generator and transmission line is a transformer, which serves to change
the generator output voltage to a higher transmission voltage [1].

2.2. Power
Power is the energy expended to do business. In the electric power system, power is the amount of
energy used to perform work or effort. Electrical power is usually expressed in units of Watts or
Horsepower (HP). Horsepower is a unit of electrical power which 1 HP 746 Watts or equivalent
lbft/second. While the Watt is a unit of electrical power which 1 watt has power equivalent to the
power produced by the multiplication of flow 1 Ampere and voltage of 1 Volt [2].
There are three types of electrical power, i.e. [2]:
Active power (Active Power) is used to perform the actual energy. The units of the active power is
the Watt. For example heat energy, light, mechanical and others–other.
P_3 φ = 3. V_φ. I_φ. cos φ
P = √ 3. V_L. I_L. cos φ (1)
Reactive power is the amount of power required for the formation of a magnetic field. From the
formation of the magnetic field then the magnetic field flux will be formed. An example of the power
that creates reactive power is a transformer, motors, incandescent lamps and other – other. Reactive
power unit is the Var.
Q_3 φ = 3. V_φ. I_φ. sin φ
Q = √ 3. V_L. I_L. sin φ (2)
Pseudo power (Apparent Power) is the power generated by the multiplication between voltage and
current rms within a network or power that is the result.
S = 3 Vφ. Iφ = √ 3 V_L. I_L (3)
The summation of trigonometric power active and reactive power. Pseudo power units are VA.

2.3. Power factor

Power factor is the ratio between active power P (in watts) with total power S (Volt Ampere) or
cosines angle between the active power and the total. High reactive power will improve this corner
and as a result the power factor will be lower.

2.4. Transmission distance short

The transmission line is the medium used to transmit electrical power from the generator station/power
station until the distribution station up to consumer users of electricity [3]. To complete the function as
part of a system of electric power distribution, transmission line has 4 parameters namely reactance,
inductance, capacitance and conductance [4].
Transmission line physically has the length that stretched as far as tens or hundreds of kilometres.
As a result, the resistance, inductance and capacitance relating to transmission line also distributed
along the channel. There are three transmission line modelling based on distance i.e. modelling of
transmission line short-haul, medium, and long.
In short distance transmission line modelling capacitance can be ignored without resulting in the
existence of many mistakes if the channel is less than 80 km (50 MI), or if the voltage is not more than
69kV. Short distance channel model is the result of the multiplication of series impedance per unit
from the overall line length [5].
z = (r + jωL) l = R + jX (4)
Where r and L in a row is resistance per phase and the inductance per unit length and is the line length.
The basic model of short-haul channels per phase Vs and Is the phase of the voltage and current is
transmitted on the channel, and VR and IR is the phase of the voltage and current on either end of the
receiver channels.
If a load of 3 phase power with a pseudo SR (3 Φ) is connected on the other end of the transmission
line, then the accepted current expressed as follows:
I _ (R =) S _ (R (3 bores must))/3V 〗 〖 _ R (5)
The phase of the voltage on the sender side is
VS = VR + ZIR (6)
Because of the parallel capacitance is negligible, then the current that is transmitted to the end and
received at the other end is
IS = IR (7)

2.5. Flexible Alternating Current Transmission Systems (FACTS)

FACTS is a merger of the power-electronic and the controller, which is used to increase the value of a
network transmission by increasing the use of its capacity. With rapid control operations, the FACTS
raise the limit for safe operation at the transmission system without disturbing the stability of the
system. Where there are 3 types of FACTS that is, parallel, series and series-parallel [6]. On
controlling FACTS using equipment solid-state electrical switching. Growing use of the FACTS then
the system that controlled ever growing.

2.6. Static Var Compensator (SVC)

SVC is part of a system of flexible transmission AIR CONDITIONING equipment, voltage regulator
and stabilize the system, and is one of the many FACTS devices used and installed in parallel against
the bus. SVC has the ability to generate or absorb reactive power [7].
SVC will compensate for the reactive power distribution network by means of injecting or
absorbing reactive power, appropriate conditions [8]. The term static is based on the fact that at a time

when operating or make changes to compensation no moving part of the SVC, setting the magnitude
of VAR and voltage is done by setting the magnitude of inductive reactive power compensation on the
reactor.
If the system load is capacitive reactive power or leading, SVC will raise the power reactor to
reduce the voltage from the system so that the VAR system down. On the inductive reactive
conditions or lagging, the SVC will reduce power reactor to raise the VAR of the system so that the
system voltage will rise.

Figure 2. SVC as acceptance variables.

(a) The series FC-TCR, (b) Model SVC [9].

The basic structure of SVC shown in Figure 2 which shows that the model of SVC is represented by
the fixed capacitors and reactors under control. Through a suitable coordination of capacitor and
reactor for reactive power bus, injected or absorbed by the SVC can be continuously varied to control
the voltage or to maintain the desired power flow in the transmission network through normal
operation or in the condition of the interference [7].

2.7. The ETAP (Electrical Transient Analyzer Program)

ETAP is the software used to do modelling/planning and an overview of the existing electrical system
in an industry or region power plant. So with ETAP could he did test the power system at a power
plant that has been designed in the ETAP software. This software is very useful to perform various
analyses and ETAP easily edit graphics one line diagram.

3.2. Power flow simulation using ETAP 12.6.0.

Power flow simulation run to get the power flow on the sub system 3-4 and Cibatu Mandirancan with
voltage of 150kV. Process simulation is performed with two power alira State, i.e. the State of the
system before the SVC is installed and the State system of having installed SVC. Then the results of
the simulations will be analysed based on the Voltage State of the results of the simulator with the
State of the rill from the results of the installation the SVC.

3.3. Determine the position and capacity of SVC

In determining the position of a typical seating of SVC on the power flow simulation system 3-4 and
Cibatu sub Mandirancan 150 kV using ETAP 12.6.0 is with how to pair the parent booths at SVC
value loss-the greatest voltage loss or who have the value of loss-loss more than 15 kV voltage from a
voltage of 150 kV or should correspond to the value of that 1995 SPLN voltage range the lowest was
135 kV or loss-loss value 15 kV voltage of 150 kV rating should be.
After mounting the SVC on a troubled parent booths, and voltage value changes, those changes
will affect the voltage loss loss changes, then in accordance with predetermined capacity, the SVC
move on stem other booths which then results the changes recorded value per booth.

After the specified position then the next step is to replace the value of the SVC with the capacity
and then paired back on a troubled parent booths. Then, after mounting the SVC on May 23, 2017 at

4.3. Determination of location and capacity in an attempt to repair the loss-loss of voltage on
transmission systems 150 kV system in IBT3-4 and Cibatu Mandirancan
As it has been explained in Chapter 3 sub 3.7 chapter about how to determine the position and
capacity or rating on the SVC on the ETAP programme 12.6.0 done by determining the initial position
of the SVC on parent booths, have the greatest voltage loss loss values and determine his capacity to
get the value of a loss-loss of voltage is not more than the voltage of 15kV supposed i.e. 150 kV in
accordance with the 1995 SPLN range 135 kV to 157.5 kv.
In determining the optimal SVC capacity in an attempt to reduce voltage loss loss-SVC is
connected on the Rails at the parent post Dawuan as parent booths that have the greatest voltage loss
loss values for the position was beginning, the capacity used by the author to SVC is registration-

the reactor (-199 MVAR and 199MVAR) capacity value obtained from the SVC experiment results to
actual 4-on the first try with a rating of SVC registration-50 MVAR and 50 MVAR was enough to
make the system be on the voltage rating corresponds to 1995 SPLN, however the author try to the

In the specify the location of the placement SVC in an attempt to reduce voltage loss loss-done
installation SVC with a capacity in accordance with the results of the determination of the calculation
of reactive power injection in the system. Mounting the SVC conducted done by pairing the SVC on
the Rails in a troubled parent booths (the rail has a value of voltage loss loss above 15 k V suit SPLN)
As mentioned on the previous sub chapter 4.1.3 for that matter at the time of installation SVC of
50MVAR and 50 MVAR all parent booths were in accordance with the standards of the SPLN range
135 to 157.5 kV voltage-loss or loss does not exceed with 15kV voltage loss loss-the biggest being at
booths Dawuan's parent with the value loss – a loss of voltage of 15.389 kV as for loss-loss voltage
smallest how parent booths at mandirancan with the value loss loss voltage of 1.705 kV
When viewed in table 4.5 when SVC is mounted on a 50 rating-MVAR and repair damages
happening MVAR 50-loss voltage in sub Cibatu system IBT 3-4 and Mandirancan. Improvement of
voltage loss loss-the best there is on the parent Dawuan booths with improvements lose power loss of
loss of 9,098 kV voltage loss before the SVC in pairs of 220.604 kV and after in pairs while being
211.506 kV SVC repair loss-loss the smallest voltage is present on the parent Suryaragi substation
with voltage improvement of voltage loss loss kV from 0.047 previously of 220.604 kV and after
installed into 220.557 kV.
In an experiment by pasting a value rating on SVC of-100 MVAR and 100 MVAR occurs repair
loss loss voltage better than ever are using 50 rating-MVAR and 50 MVAR repair loss-the greatest
voltage loss occurred at the parent post Dawuan with the improvement of loss-loss of voltage ' 17.152
kV of voltage-loss loss before installed SVC of 220.604 kV and after SVC in pairs into a 211.506 kV.
Whereas the improvement of loss-loss of the smallest there is on the parent Suryaragi substation with a
value improvement of 0.38 kV of voltage-loss loss before installed SVC of 220.604 and after the
install of 220.224 kV SVC.
On experiment installation SVC value rating-150 150 and MVAR, repair damages happening
voltage loss. Improvement of voltage loss loss-best happen at booths increasing value Dawuan stem
loss-loss of voltage kV 23.963 from loss-loss of 220.604 kV voltage before and after in the pairs of
196.641 kV SVC. And the repair of damages to the smallest there is voltage-loss at the parent post
mandirancan with a value of voltage loss loss-repair of 0.522 kV of voltage-loss loss before SVC of
220.604 kV was installed and after the install value SVC loss loss voltage of 220.082 kV.
On experiment installation SVC with rating-199 199 MVAR and repair damages happening-loss
statement significant improvements to the voltage loss-loss of the largest voltage still on the parent
value Dawuan substation improvement of loss-loss of voltage 29.903 kV of loss loss voltage before
installation SVC of 220.604 kV and after mounting the SVC loss-loss voltage be 190.701 kV. For the

repair of damages to the smallest there is voltage-loss at the parent post Mandirancan with a value of
voltage loss loss-repair of 0.767 kV of voltage-loss loss before SVC installation of 220.604 kV and
after mounting the SVC-loss loss voltage become a 219.873 kV.
Loss loss voltage in sub system Cibatu IBT3-4 and Mandirancan seen from the amount of the value
loss-loss voltage in each parent booths, each booth has a parent value of the voltage-loss loss variant
be but the author operates on improvement loss-loss voltage in sub system Cibatu IBT3-4 and
Mandirancan. From the results of the simulation in optimum installation get that SVC is present on the
stem Dawuan booths because the value of the most significant improvements in system of 29.903 kV
voltage loss loss or improvement of 13.56%
In the calculation of the manual on the SVC based on data P = 1300.836 MW 394.794 dang
MVAR then corresponds to the formula (2.3) the value of all the load power is 1359.412 MVA, so
they have a power factor of a load of 0.96.
Then thus so that the presence of power factor improvement required reactive power injection with
original power factor of 0.95 and the desired power factor 0.99 IE so that based on the formula (2.4) as
follows
0.317 rad = 16, 26o
and rad = 0.142 8.1 o
then
MVAR 196.42
So in experiments using reactive power injection SVC of 199 MVAR, because not too far from
capacity calculation above and also the value is the value of the maximum capacity of the SVC can be
fitted and do the iteration by ETAP 12.6.0.
When viewed in outline based on simulation results, show that the SVC can fix loss-loss of voltage
on the system effectively, SVC is placed as close as possible with the load, as for the reason for the
placement of injecting reactive power should be as close as possible to the point of requiring
additional power and placement SVC at the point load is preferred due to the effect of repair of loss-
the loss of her most high voltage

5. Conclusion

5.1. Conclusion
Referring to the findings and discussion in the previous chapter, there are several conclusions that can
be taken. As for the summary is as follows:
 Loss loss voltage before installation of Static VAR Compensator in Sub 3-4 and IBT Cibatu
System Mandirancan on reading by the SCADA system PT. PLN (PERSERO) of 224.71 kV
and on simulations of ETAP 12.6.0 of 220.604 kV with an error in the reading of the SCADA
system PT. PLN (PERSERO) and simulation result ETAP 12.6.0 amounted to 1.066%
 loss of voltage after the installation of a Static VAR Compensator using simulated ETAP
12.6.0 on the first try with a rating of 50-50 and MVAR loss loss voltage on sub system 3-4
and IBT Cibatu Madirancan be 211.506 kV or no improvement of 9.098 kV, in a second
experiment with rating-100 MVAR and 100 MVAR loss-loss voltage in sub system 3-4 and
IBT Cibatu Madirancan be 203.425 kV or no improvement of 17.152 kV, in a third
experiment with rating-150 150 and MVAR loss-loss the voltage on the sub system 3-4 and
IBT Cibatu Madirancan be 196.641 kV or no improvement of 23.963 kV and the fourth
experiment with the value of the rating-199 199 MVAR and loss-loss voltage in sub system 3-
4 and IBT Cibatu Madirancan be 190.701 kV or is there an improvement of 29.903 kV
 refer to the results of research in the previous chapter that the optimal placement of the
installation Static VAR Compensator in the Sub 3-4 Mandirancan IBT Cibatu System is
present on the mains Substation Dawuan with improvement of loss-loss of voltage 29.903 kV

5.2. Implications and recommendations

Based on the results of the research that has been done can be found implication and recommendations
as follows:
 The results of the study prove that the existence of injecting the appropriate reactive power
SVC can improve significantly against the loss – loss of voltage on the sub system Cibatu IBT
3-4 Mandirancan. This also showed the SVC has contributions that in an effort to reduce the
huge loss-loss transmission line voltage on 150 kV Sub Cibatu system IBT3-4 and
Mandirancan.
 Results of the research can be expected in consideration for PT. PLN (PERSERO) for using
SVC at 150 kV transmission network in an attempt to reduce loss-loss of voltage. But in this
case required consideration between the maximum load capacity on the channel capacity and
transmission introduction injecting reactive power SVC so hopefully can avoid excess load on
the transmission line.
 in conducting further research is expected on process simulation using the latest version of
ETAP and library to conduction that is used must comply with the conditions of real
parameters and overall on the SVC can be known so that the results obtained are becoming
more accurate and done on sub system to another.
 Further improvement concerning the profile of the voltage on the transmission subsystem uses
a Static Var Compensator (SVC) is expected to involve a whole part of the system so that
power flow simulation results with greater precision the actual situation e.g. in transmission
system subsystem Cibatu and Mandirancan there are also part of the system with a voltage
rating of 70 kV.
