A load of 10,000 kW at a power factor of 0-8 lagging is supplied by a 3-phase line whose voltage has to be maintained at 33kV at each end. If the line resistance and reactance per phase are 5 and 10 2 respectively, calculate the capacity of the synchronous condenser to be installed for the purpose. Comment on the result.
