The paper gives the results of applying an alternative procedure for the economical as-sessment and optimization of the shunt compensation of radial power distribution feeders with con¬centrated and/or distributed loading, taking into account the feeder copper losses as well .is the installation cost of capacitors. In addition to the energy and capacitor specific costs, the objective function depends on the si/e and location of the capacitor, the feeder resistance, the voltage level, and the load current. The results <»f a detailed parameter study on the impact of the load parameters are presented. The study focuses primarily on the impact of the load factor, the load power factor as well as the feeder's loading profile.
