This document discusses optimal placement of compensation to improve load stability using the Fast Voltage Stability Index (FVSI). It analyzes the IEEE 6-bus test system to determine vulnerable lines and buses. The key points are:
1) FVSI is calculated for each line, with values near 1 indicating instability. Lines are ranked based on FVSI.
2) For the base case, line 2-3 is most vulnerable. Bus 6 is identified as the optimal location for shunt compensation.
3) Various contingencies are analyzed, such as line outages. This may change the most vulnerable line and optimal compensation location.
4) Outages are found to shift the optimal compensation location
