Capacitor bank overheating after adding VFDs is a power quality symptom, not a capacitor defect. VFD rectifiers inject harmonic current, the bank offers a low-impedance path at those frequencies, and parallel resonance between the bank and the supply can amplify that current until fuses open, contactors chatter and capacitor cans swell. A capacitor bank supplies reactive power to correct power fac...
Capacitor Banks vs. Active SVG: Which Power Factor Correction Is Right for You? When your electricity bill suddenly spikes — or your utility sends a power-factor penalty notice — a common fix is to install power factor correction (PFC). For decades, that meant one thing: capacitor banks. Today you have a second, modern option: the Static Var Generator (SVG). Both i...
