AREAS OF USAGE

Shunt reactors are used in order to compensate capacitive reactive power generated by long and lightly transmission lines, thus allowing the flow of more active power through the system. Shunt reactors are normally connected to the tertiary winding of the main transformer.

In high power and high voltage systems, shunt reactors should be used with RC filters because in such systems switching transient voltages are extremely high and that's why switching devices can be damaged.
