I was wondering if anyone here has a general rule of thumb they follow for placing capacitors on a bus in an area that needs voltage support. I looked this up and found a guide from MISO where they recommend allowing no more than a 3% deviation per capacitor stage on a bus pre-contingency and no more than a 5% deviation per capacitor stage on a bus post-contingency. I'm curious to see what others have come across.

Thanks in advance!

I just wanted to share that my net worth has just crossed over to positive for the first time in a little over a decade. I was led into student loans by my parents and I trusted their direction. I should have taken a lot more control over my situation. I told myself that I would learn all about money when I got my first full time job but there was no point until then.

I was in school for 6 years (2 degrees) and I started at 19 and finished at 25 with just under $90K of debt. Didn't get a really good job until 26 and educated myself on money at 27. I'm now 30 and I have $63K in debt (all student loans) and ~$65K between assets and cash.

I still feel like I'm catching up for a lot of missed time, but I'm on my way. My biggest regrets are fully listening to my parents blindly and not educating myself on money sooner. Also, 2 degrees was dumb and a time waster. I only use my engineering degree for money making purposes.

Anyways, I'm really excited as this has been a goal for me for a long time and I'm happy to see a lot of progress made.
