ABSTRACT

This article discusses usefulness of hydro sets in maintaining grid voltage by operating in synchronous condenser mode (SCO) by easily delivering or absorbing reactive power (Q) from it, particularly during lean periods of hydrological cycle when water level in the dam is low. Broad Contours of process of transferring and operating the set in (SCO) mode are given along with some practical data from sites.
