There is provided a static VAR generator having voltage regulation in combination with the capability to damp subsynchronous resonance should it occur. A novel method for controlling subsynchronous resonance is provided by monitoring the frequency of the electrical generating system and controlling the insertion of compensating inductance in response to disturbances that may result in voltage and frequency pulsations.
