Increase in power transfer
The increase in power transfer capability as a function of the degree of compensation for
a transmission line can be explained by studying the circuit shown in figure 73. The power
transfer on the transmission line is given by the equation 50:

The effect on the power transfer when considering a constant angle difference (δ) between
the line ends is illustrated in figure 74. Practical compensation degree runs from 20 to 70
percent. Transmission capability increases of more than two times can be obtained in
practice.
