Introduction To Capacitors And Reactors Reactance includes inductive reactance and capacitive reactance, and reactor includes inductive reactance (inductor) and capacitive reactance (capacitor). Inductance has the function of "blocking AC and blocking DC", that is, in the AC circuit, the characteristics of inductive reactance are used to "pass low-frequency DC and block high-frequency AC". The cap...
The existing power grid is usually equipped with a large number of nonlinear electronic components. These nonlinear electronic components will generate corresponding harmonics during the working process, among which high-order harmonics will interfere with the electrical equipment in the power grid and seriously affect the power supply. Power quality in the grid. In order to reduce the adverse eff...
Variable Speed Drives (VSDs) Do you have AC motors in your facility?Do these motors need a variable output? The growing popularity of Variable Speed Drives (VSDs) is a key driver of energy efficiency, but Variable Speed Drives cause power quality problems, one of which is the harmonics within power systems. So networks requires more effective means to mitigate harmonics. In C...
Site conditions The site is located in Hangzhou Asian Games Village.The project has more than 20 power distribution rooms. Due to the main load being fire-fighting facilities, which are generally not started, the transformers almost all operate without load, and the cable length is long, resulting in capacitive reactive power at both the high and low voltage sides, which cannot be compensated by t...
Microgrids are designed to operate at a fundamental frequency (50 or 60 Hz). However, certain types of loads generate voltage and/or current harmonics that increase power system heat losses. These harmonic losses reduce system efficiency, cause apparatus overheating and increase power costs. Besides that, the Distributed Generation (DG) is expected to play an important role in future power systems...

YTPQC hybrid power factor correction system is comprised from both capacitor based and Static Var Generator(SVG,Active Power Factor correction). Static Var Generator is use...
Harmonics and 3rd order harmonic Harmonics are the result of nonlinear loads that convert AC line voltage to DC. Harmonics flow into the electrical system because of nonlinear electronic switching devices, such as variable frequency drives (VFDs), computer power supplies and energy-efficient lighting. Today, the most prevalent and growing harmonic sources are: VFD’s, EC motors...
