- RLC in brief is a type of circuit configuration and used as model for transmission lines in general while R is resistance, L is Inductance & C is capacitance (R&L are in series while C in Parallel).
- We use inductance &/or capacitance in parallel (parallel compensation) with the load to consume or supply reactive power which has many important effect on the grid and increase its reliability
-We use Inductance in series with the transmission line as a protection in case of short circuits faults
_ We use the capacitor in series as compensation by " virtually " canceling the inductance of the transmission line which decrease the voltage drop for high distances mainly and increase power received by the load keeping the stability in the network
I hope this brief answer is sufficient to you...
