SVG and AHF maintenance is the scheduled inspection, measurement and component-replacement programme that keeps a static var generator (SVG) and an active harmonic filter (AHF) inside their design limits — stable reactive power compensation, a corrected power factor, and harmonic current below the limits agreed at the point of common coupling (PCC). Most plants do not lose power quality equi...
Poor power quality rarely appears as its own line on an electricity bill, but it can raise the charges a facility already pays by increasing current, losses and power-factor or demand penalties. When a bill climbs the tariff is blamed first — yet low power factor, harmonic distortion and voltage imbalance make a plant draw more current than the useful work it produces requires. This article ...
Power Factor and Reactive Power: The Hidden Cost on Your Electricity Bill Your electricity bill may be higher than it needs to be — not because you use more energy, but because of how you use it. The culprit is power factor, and it's one of the most overlooked opportunities in energy management. Active, Reactive and Apparent Power To understand power factor...
YT Electric (Shanghai Yingtong Electric Co., Ltd) is a Shanghai-headquartered manufacturer of power quality equipment — active harmonic filters (AHF), static var generators (SVG and ASVG), hybrid reactive power compensation, medium-voltage STATCOMs and energy storage systems — serving industrial plants, data centres, commercial buildings, hospitals, rail and renewable-energy projects. ...
Industrial efficiency losses are not always mechanical. A plant can keep every machine healthy and still lose energy, capacity and uptime to harmonics, reactive power and three-phase current imbalance that never appear on a maintenance checklist. VFDs, rectifier-fed equipment and fast-switching electronics make production more efficient while making the network underneath less forgiving. This arti...
Dear Customers and Partners, As China’s National Day approaches, YT Electric would like to express our sincere appreciation to all customers, distributors and partners for your continued trust and support.

Centralized or Distributed Compensation? How to Place AHF and SVG in Multi-Transformer Facilities In modern industrial complexes, continuous process plants, chemical refineries, automotive manufacturing hubs, and large commercial campuses, electrical power is distributed via multi-transformer substations (often configured as Main-Tie-Main or dual-ended secondary selective substations). A standard ...
