The voltageprofile of low voltage distribution systemsmust be in accordance to national regulations, usually given bya rangein which voltage needs to be.Along a day, usuallyvoltage fluctuates according to load characteristics, especiallypower level and power factor,and in some situations can overpass minimum acceptable values. This paper studies the influence of the power factor measurementpoint governing a D-STATCOM, over the feeder voltage profile.By simulation, it was saw that connecting the D-STATCOM at the end of the system, but correcting power factor saw by the initial pole, a better voltage compliance is obtained.
