Reactive power compensation methods are one of the most effective methods to improve the efficiency of energy systems. Therefore, the designs and implementations of these systems are important. The aim of this study is to design and implement the most appropriate reactive power compensation systems in electrical power systems. Reactive power compensation can be realized using capacitors or the synchronous motors. In this study, a microcontroller and computer-controlled compensation applications are done by capacitors and synchronous motors under the same load conditions has been performed. By means of this designed system, it has been tried to determine what type of reactive power compensation is suitable in the existing system. In this respect, it is aimed to avoid unnecessary investments for existing systems and to establish a quality compensation system. In addition, the designed system is easy to update against all kinds of load changes and does not require additional equipment.
