Medium Voltage STATCOM for Mining Mining sites depend on stable medium voltage power. Crushers, conveyors, pumps, mills, hoists, compressors, and ventilation systems all place heavy demand on the electrical network. These loads do not always operate at a steady level. They start, stop, ramp up, and change throughout the day. This can create voltage fluctuation, poor power factor, and reactive powe...
Voltage Flicker in Steel Plants Voltage flicker is a serious power quality problem in steel plants. It is often caused by loads that change quickly. These loads include electric arc furnaces, rolling mills, ladle furnaces, large motors, and heavy equipment. These loads do not draw power smoothly. Their demand changes quickly during melting, rolling, lifting, cutting, and cooling operations. When t...
