The use of inductive loads generates reactive currents which will cause an increase in power loss and a decreased voltage profile. One way to overcome this condition is to use a bank. However, excess banks need to be placed in the right locations and capacities to maximize power loss. So that in this research, the best position and capacity will be searched using the genetic algorithm method to achieve the minimum reduction in power loss. Algorithm method is a method that is based on biological evolution and is able to solve complex and parallel problems. After simulating using the genetic method, the results of the optimization of bank installation are obtained on bus 10 and bus 26 with a capacity of 2.33 Mvar for each bus so as to reduce power loss up to 31%. In addition, the value of the voltage profile on the system also increased by 3.28% from before the vendor bank installation. So it can be said that the Genetic Algorithm method can be used as an alternative method to get the optimal location and capacity to reduce power losses and improve the voltage profile.} }
