A study of passive shunt and series compensation is made to provide an exposure on various issues of power quality, which can easily be mitigated using lossless passive components such as capacitors and inductors for enhancing the efficiency and utilization of equipment in distribution systems. The use of these passive shunt and series compensators has been demonstrated through several numerical examples...
