The problem of capacitor placement for loss reduction in distribution system has been thoroughly, abundantlyresearched over the past many years. This paper describes the advancement of the research and provides an estimation andopinion about practicability and accuracy of the capacitor placement on the basis of conclusions. The purpose of this paperis to explain the different techniques with the aim of determining optimal location and size of shunt capacitor banks (SCBs) indistribution systems. These tactics include the three objective functions: decreasing active power losses, improving voltagestability for buses and balancing current in system sections. Results of various techniques are discussed and concluded thatwhich method will be better to find the appropriate size and location of capacitor.
