The control method comprises the steps that: reactive-power requirements of the wind power field are calculated, and a correspondent allocation method is adopted according to the valid reactive-power power capacities of the reactive-power compensation device and the wind power generating set. Due to the adoption of the controlmethod, the reactive-power power adjusting capacity of the variable-speed constant-frequency wind power generating set can be adequately played, the coordinated control of multiple reactive power sources can be realized, and the oscillation situation caused by the adjustment can be avoided. When an electric power system has malfunctions, the reactive power adjustment is locked, so the system over-voltage caused by the excessive reactive power of the system after the malfunction is removed can be prevented. When the reactive power capacity of the wind power field is insufficient to maintain the voltage of an interconnected point, a prompting signal is transmitted, the active power of the wind power field is limited, and the coordination of the active power and the reactive power can be realized.
