Introduction As the world moves towards a greener future, China has set ambitious "Dual Carbon" targets, which have propelled the photovoltaic (PV) power generation industry into an era of unprecedented growth and potential. The State Council's plan for achieving peak carbon emissions by 2030 envisions an installe...
Let me give you an insightful introduction to the YT Electric production lines for Active Harmonic Filters (AHF) and Static Var Generators (SVG) which offers a comprehensive view of the entire manufacturing process from various angles. Active Harmonic Filter (AHF): The AHF operates based on a voltage-source inverter and utilizes an external current transfo...
Photovoltaic Power Quality: Prevent Penalties via Power Factor Management Introduction More factories and businesses now use solar power systems. But these systems can cause power quality problems. A big issue is low power factor. Power companies charge extra fees for low power factor. This article explains why solar systems hurt power factor and how YT Electric’s SVGs solve this problem. &n...
Power Quality Solutions: The Role of AHF and SVG Modern power systems face increasing power quality issues such as harmonic distortion, voltage fluctuations, and reactive power imbalance. These problems can damage equipment and reduce system efficiency. Traditional solutions like capacitor banks and passive filters have limitations in speed, accuracy, and harmonic adaptability. ...
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...
What is "HT sensing" in reactive power compensation? In a typical HT sensing and low-compensation scheme: HT sensing: The system samples voltage and current on the high-voltage side (e.g., 10kV) using CTs and PTs. Low-side compensation: The actual compensation—either reactive power support (SVG/capacitors) or harmonic filtering (AHF)—is implemented on the low-voltage side (e.g., 400V)....
In our increasingly electrified world, the quality of electric power is more critical than ever. Whether we realize it or not, electric power quality affects virtually every aspect of our lives—from the functionality of household appliances and the reliability of our smartphones, to the stability of industrial systems and the safety of hospitals. Poor power quality can lead to equipment malf...
The 4 quadrants of reactive power refer to the different combinations of active (real) power (P) and reactive power (Q) flow in an AC electrical system. These quadrants are defined based on whether power is being generated or consumed and whether the system is supplying or absorbing reactive power. Four Quadrants of Reactive Power: The quadrants are categorized based on th...
