The article discusses electrical systems that include pumping stations. Taking into account the fact that the pumping stations are equipped with synchronous motors, it is proposed to use their excitation system in the mode of outputting reactive power to the electrical system. Synchronous motors, due to their design features and high technical and economic indicators, are increasingly used in industry. The expediency of regulating the excitation of a synchronous motor operating on a variable load follows from the following considerations: with large changes in the power on the shaft, to ensure sufficient dynamic stability of the synchronous motor during the period of the load, its excitation must be maintained at a maximum level. To ensure favorable economic and energy performance of the synchronous motor during the period of no load, it is advisable to reduce the excitation current. To ensure the modes of the supply network with high technical and economic indicators, it is required that synchronous motors give maximum reactive energy to the network. The amount of reactive energy delivered, depending on the mode of the supply network and the load of synchronous motors, must change, which is achieved by the automatic excitation controllers (AEC) of synchronous motors according to certain laws. In the work, the results of virtual modeling of the steady state of an electric power system containing a large pumping station are obtained, and the values of voltages in the nodes and the level of losses in the electric network are determined.
