The determination of the appropriate compensation capacity is an absolutely crucial aspect in projects where the installation of reactive power compensation devices, such as capacitor banks, Static Var Generator (SVG), or Hybrid reactive power compensation devices, is imperative. For new projects: In new projects that are currently in the design stage, the required compensation capacity (kVAr) can...
Introduction to Low Voltage Reactive Power Cabinet Power distribution equipment forms the backbone of modern electrical systems, efficiently managing and allocating electricity to ensure seamless power supply across various sectors. There are control gadgets that help manage how electricity flows, safety features like circuit breakers to prevent accidents, and measuring tools to check how much pow...
Introduction To Capacitors And Reactors Reactance includes inductive reactance and capacitive reactance, and reactor includes inductive reactance (inductor) and capacitive reactance (capacitor). Inductance has the function of blocking AC and blocking DC, that is, in the AC circuit, the characteristics of inductive reactance are used to pass low-frequency DC and block high-frequency AC. The capacit...
What is the power factor correction? Power factor correction (PFC) is a technique used to improve the power factor of an electrical system. Power factor is a measure of how effectively electrical power is being used. It is defined as the ratio of real power (measured in kilowatts, kW) used to perform work to the apparent power (measured in kilovolt-amperes, kVA) drawn from the power source. Power ...
What is the active power compensator? Active Power Compensator (APC) is an advanced power electronic device used to manage and optimize the flow of active power in electrical power systems. It helps to enhance power quality, improve voltage stability, and increase the overall efficiency of the power distribution network. APCs are particularly useful in applications where there are significant fluc...
kVAr and Amps in power quality Reactive Power (kVAR) Reactive power, measured in kilovolt-amperes reactive (kVAR), is the component of alternating current (AC) power that does not perform any actual work but is necessary for maintaining the voltage levels required for the active (real) power to do useful work. It is associated with the energy storage in inductive and capacitive elements of the pow...
Reasons of Neutral Current The neutral current is the current flowing through the neutral conductor in a multi-phase electrical system. In a perfectly balanced system, the sum of the currents in all phases should theoretically cancel each other out, resulting in zero neutral current. However, in practice, various factors cause current to flow in the neutral conductor. Reasons for Neutral Cur...
Understanding the IEEE 519–2014 Standard for Harmonics The IEEE 519-2014 standard establishes criteria for voltage and current harmonics distortion in electrical system design. It provides detailed explanations of the existing voltage and current waveforms throughout the system and sets waveform distortion goals for system designers. The standard undergoes periodic updates to stay align...
