Capacitor bank maintenance work

The proportionality rate among the powers is defined as Power factor and measured in kilowatts (kW) whereas apparent power, measured in kilovolt-amperes (kVA), it is the absolute fundamental that concern upon the electric efficiency to distribute voltage and current, externally mark for in case it actually works or not. By adding capacitors to the power distribution system, power factor correction is done.

An automatic controller is best accomplish that switches capacitors & reactors at intervals. Employ a fixed capacitor bank is the most basic application. When the power factor drop below the stated values, Power factor correction capacitors can slow down the energy charge by bypassing the standard electric utilities charge. These capacitors are installed when their inductive loads cause power factor complication to the electric utility.

In power factor correction capacitors and related circuitry premature failures can cause due to circumstances such as,

  • 1. harmonic currents
  • 2. high ambient temperatures
  • 3. poor ventilation

Since it’s critical to scrutinize power factor correction capacitors on a routine axiom to assure that they’re working well.
