There has been a problem of voltage instability and increased power loss on transmission lines due to the ever increasing load growth. This work investigates the effect of Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) to mitigate power losses and enhance voltage stability of a transmission system. To validate the capacity of STATCOM in this direction, a scaled model of IEEE 14 bus test system was built...
