Customer ServiceCapacitor banks play a pivotal role in substations, serving the dual purpose of enhancing the power factor of the system and mitigating harmonics, which ultimately yields a cascade of advantages. Primarily, by improving the power factor, capacitor banks contribute to a host of operational efficiencies.
In this section, we delve into a practical case study involving the selection and calculation of a capacitor bank situated within a 132 by 11 KV substation. The primary objective of this capacitor bank is to enhance the power factor of a factory.
While it may seem like a small point, at first, the result of adding the capacitors to compensate for inductive load is the elimination of the losses that the extra reactive current wastes in the conductors and is, perhaps surprisingly, a huge savings for the utility.
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.
It can be seen from the above that the application of shunt capacitors in a network with a lagging power factor has the following benefits: Reduce investment in system facilities per kW of load supplied. A capacitor starting system may be employed to reduce high inrush currents with the starting of large motors.
