oltage inversion is not characteristic for the buses and IED points closest to the series
compensated line only. It can spread also deeper into the network and this way
influences the selection of protection devices (mostly distance IEDs) on remote ends of
lines adjacent to the series compensated circuit, and sometimes even deeper in the
network.
