Excerpt from Constant-Voltage Transmission: A Discussion of the Use of Synchronous Motors for Eliminating Variation in Voltage in Electric Power Systems
The new system of constant-voltage transmission has been successfully applied to both large and small power projects, and the results thereby obtained demonstrate convincingly that this method must be closely in vestigated by those responsible for the management or design of electric-power projects. The advantages of synchronous motors for raising the power-factor of the load of a steam-driven station have been thoroughly de scribed. It is, however, not so well known that synchro nous motors are of far greater value with long-distance transmission systems than with local power systems, so much so, in fact, that synchronous motors can often be installed to run idle, and yet save several times their cost.
