magnitude of the output current of the WSVCT equals to the
maguitude of reactive load current, which is much smaller
than that of HCSRT in the FWHCSRT type compensator.
That is to say, for compensating an identical load, both
required rating and loss of the HSVCT are smaller than those
of the FC+HCSRT type compensator.

the response time becomes one
quarter cycle. It should be mentioned that in a practical system,
the compensators response time is related to the change time
of load, the direction of load reactive power change and the
residual voltage of the capacitor. For example, when the
absolute value of the compensators output reactive power
( QT < 0 , capacitive) increases or Qr changes from
inductive to capacitive, the maximum transient response time
is one cycle, when QT (a,
inductive) increases or change
from capacitive to inductive, the maximum dynamic response
time is one half cycle.
Compare Fig8 with Fig.7, it is obviously that when

V. CONCLUSIONS
The harmonic components of the output current of a CSRT
is related to foliowing factors: (a) The number and the ratings
of bypassed windings; (b) The ratio of the rating of the
regulating winding to the total rating of the CSRT; (c) The
firing delay angle of the bi-directional thyristor valves of the
regulating winding. To satisfy the harmonic limitation, the
reactance of a conventional CSRT has a dead band under
light-load condition.
The proposed HCSRT replaces the bi-directional thyristor
valves in a CSRT with the VSI to enable the control of the
output current of the regulating winding. By careful design,
the equivalent reactance of the HCSRT can be continuously
