Transmission lines consume a considerable amount of power. The necessity of power and its dependency has grown exponentially over the years. The void between limited production and tremendous demand has increased the focus on minimizing power losses. The losses like transmission loss range from the conjecture factors like physical or environmental losses to severe technical losses. The primary factors like reactive power and voltage deviation are significant in stretched conditions and long range transmission lines of powers. The short and medium range of transmission lines accounts for micro-static values of power loss but the transmission losses of vulnerable size are witnessed in long transmission range of more than 100 kilometres. In this paper, we have incorporated Static VAR compensator (SVC) as the FACTS (Flexible AC Transmission System) device to control the power loss in transmission lines. The optimal location SVC is studied on the basis of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) technique to minimize network losses. Validation through the implementation on the IEEE-14 and IEEE-30 bus systems shows that the PSO is found feasible to achieve the task.
