Capacitor banks provide reactive power compensation by introducing capacitive reactive power into the system, which is especially useful for counteracting the inductive reactive power typically drawn by motors and transformers. Capacitors store electrical energy in the electric field created between their plates when a voltage is applied.

Customer ServiceThe capacitive power can be determined with the factor k for a given effective power. The k factor is read from a table 1 – Multipliers to determine capacitor kilovars required for power factor correction and multiplied by the effective power.
Customer ServiceThis is the process "reactive power compensation". In most cases, the compensation is capacitive. A system may use capacitors in parallel (shunt) to line, or it may be in series, incorporated in the transmission line circuit. Depending on application, the compensation may be done using passive devices, active electronic circuits or synchronous generators.

Customer ServiceReactive Power Compensation. A low value of power factor requires large reactive power and this affects the voltage level. Hence in order to compensate for the reactive power, the power factor of the system must be improved.

Reactive power compensation is defined as the management of reactive power to improve the performance of AC systems. Why reactive power compensation is required? 1. To maintain the voltage profile 2.

Excellent. The aim of project called „Reactive power compensation panel” was to design capacitor bank with rated power of 200kVar and rated voltage of 400V adapted for operation with mains, where higher order harmonics are present. The capacitor bank was to be power capacitor based with automatic control by power factor regulator.
Considering power capacitor with rated power of 20 kvar and rated voltage of 440V supplied by mains at Un=400V. This type of calculation is true, if there is no reactor connected in series with capacitor. Once we know the total reactive power of the capacitors, we can choose series of capacitors for PF correction.
This aids in maintaining the voltage level in the system. The high inductive component of the starting current is reduced by the addition of capacitance during the starting period only. In this, it differs from applying capacitors for power factor correction.
Generally, we can assume that the power loss of the power capacitor (including wires, discharging resistor and contactors) is approximately 7W per / kvar – for acceptor circuit (capacitor and reactor). According to the formula: Where: Taking into account the rules above, following cubicle was selected: Table 2 – Enclosure dimensions
Since the detuning factor for the project was given as p=7%, one knows that the capacitor bank needs to be equipped with reactors. For this reason, some calculations have to be performed, in order to fit the power of the capacitors and its rated voltage taking into account reactive power of a detuning reactors.
