摘要：For the efficient transmission of power from power plants to consumer loads, the power losses arereduced in modern power system. In order to reduce such losses, a recently evolved FACTS technology is used. In thispaper, Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC) is selected to enhance the loadability in the transmission line. Toimprove the maximum power transfer capability by this device an improved gravitational search algorithm (IGSA) issuggested. Velocity of each agent is improved by this proposed algorithm. If the velocity is high then agents move to abetter solution or else the optimum solution might not be achieved. Through the mass determination of each agent, allthe solutions are contributing to the optimum solution. Here the maximum power loss of the system is considered as afitness function. The proposed algorithm is validated on IEEE-57 test system using MATLAB platform. Thus with thehelp of IGSA the maximum power transfer capability is achieved and that with the economic cost of the device
