## Abstract
Abstract The need for electrical energy is increasing in line with the growth of population. As consequences of high demand, electrical power network is also extended massively. A wider distance between the power generator to far load centers also consider as drawback in performances due to power loss along the transmission. The problem of power loss and voltage drop in the distribution system can be solved by installing DSTATCOM. This paper aims at finding the effect of DSTATCOM installation on real power losses and reactive power, as well as its effect on voltage profiles on the North Makassar Distribution System. The simulation results show that by installing DSTATCOM on 92 Bus North Makassar Distribution System on several buses, increasing of performances can be achieved. The average active power loss decreased by 2.5%, declining of the reactive power loss averaged 26.7% and the average voltage profile improved by 0.12% (2.5 kV).
