This paper presents a generalized mathematical model for assessing the loss reduction in nonuniformly loaded radial feeders by capacitor shunt compensation. The model allows for the simultaneous presence of linearly increasing feeder load density in addition to a concentrated load at the feeder end. Any number of compensating capacitors can be included in the analysis. The model is then applied to study the effect of the number of feeders on the achievable optimal reduction in the feeder copper loss. The paper also gives the optimal size and locations of these capacitors, for any number of radial feeders emanating from a distribution substation to serve a certain total load.
