Thus, in order to maintain 275 KV at the receiving end, Q r = -27.56 MVAR must be
drawn along with the real power of Pr = 150MW. The load being 150 MW at unity
power factor, i.e., Q D =0, compensation equipment must be installed at the receiving
end.

-27.56 + QC = 0
QC = 27.56 MVAR
i.e., the compensation equipment must feed positive VARs into the line.
(c) Since, no compensation equipment is provided
Pr = 150MW; Qr = 0
Now, Vs = 275 KV, Vr = ?
