In the electrical system, devices such as electric motors and coils, which convert electrical energy into electrical energy or a different energy with the magnetization effect, create inductive power with this magnetization effect, thus balancing the inductive reactive power they have created on the network and pulling the current of the phase back to the required position. is called compensation.

Compensation is very important for the economy of the country because it compensates for reactive energy, increases the carrying capacity of the network and prevents the waste of energy.

According to the decision of the Energy Market Regulatory Authority, Decision No:284/2 Decision Date: 8/1/2004, compensation has been made mandatory .This board decision entered into force by being published in the official newspaper dated 15/01/2004 and numbered 25347.
