What is a Shunt Reactor?Shunt Reactor DefinitionA shunt reactor is defined as an electrical device used in high voltage power systems to stabilize voltage during load changes.Voltage StabilizationIt controls dynamic overvoltage and provides capacitive reactive power compensation in systems above 400kV.Impedance TypesShunt reactors come in gapped core or magnetically shielded air core types to maintain constant impedance and avoid harmonic currents.Loss Measurement MethodsLosses are measured at l
