Both Passive Power Factor Correction(PPFC) and Active Power Factor Correction(APFC) are used to improve power factor and reduce reactive power, but they differ in complexity, cost, and performance. Passive Power Factor Correction (PPFC) Method: Uses passive components (capacitors, reactors, or filters) to compensate for reactive power. Types of Passive PFC: A. Capacitor Ba...
Harmonic Distortion Explained: Dangers of High Levels & How to Protect Your Systems Harmonic distortion is a hidden threat in modern electrical systems. While it doesn't get the same attention as power outages or surges, excessive harmonic distortion can quietly damage equipment, reduce energy efficiency, and cost businesses thousands. Understanding what harmonic distortion is, why it happens,...
In recent years, people have become more and more aware of environmental protection. At the same time, many want to reduce their reliance on traditional power sources. This is why home solar power systems, or photovoltaic (environmental protection) systems, have become extremely popular. These amazing systems can convert sunlight into electricity that we can use at home. Not only do they help us c...
Analysis of 3 Different Power Factor Correction Solutions: Capacitors, SVG, and AHF In today’s industrial and commercial environments, ensuring power quality is more than just good practice—it’s a necessity. Poor power quality can lead to equipment malfunctions, increased utility costs, and downtime. One major aspect of power quality is the power factor—a measure of ho...
Have you ever passed by a factory filled with the hum of machinery or a supermarket that’s open around the clock? If so, you’ve witnessed the hidden essence that powers modern industry: a steady, dependable stream of electricity. But consider this - what occurs when solar panels produce an excess of energy on a sunny day, or when the power grid collapses during a fierce storm? This is ...
Active Harmonic Filters: The Smart Way to Fix Harmonic Distortion Harmonic distortion is one of those hidden issues that can quietly wreak havoc on your electrical system. It’s responsible for things like overheated transformers, motor failures, and unexpected equipment shutdowns. If your facility uses a lot of variable-speed drives or other nonlinear loads, chances are you’ve s...
In today’s increasingly digital and power-electronic-driven world, understanding power quality parameters is essential—especially for engineers, technicians, and facility managers. One such important metric is THDi, or Total Harmonic Distortion of current. But what exactly is THDi, and how does it occur in electrical systems? What is THDi? THDi stands for Total Harmonic D...
