Customer ServiceTo allow for the effects of inherent unbalance, the unbalance protection system should be set to trip at a level of neutral displacement that will not cause a capacitor over voltage in excess of the manufacturer’s recommended maximum continuous operating voltage. Figure 2 below can help in meeting the above considerations.
Capacitor trip devices are commonly used in switchgear to provide trip circuit power and to provide voltage sag ride through capability for digital relays. CTD is not commonly used for closing applications as it is expected that the normal control power will be available when closing is desired.
Each capacitor or group of capacitors is usually protected by fuses, which are already installed by the manufacturer. Fuses must have an I2t characteristic that will not cause the fuse to blow with the inrush current resulting from the connection of the capacitor bank. Common protection devices of capacitor banks are:
There are mainly three types of protection arrangements for capacitor bank. Element Fuse. Bank Protection. Manufacturers usually include built-in fuses in each capacitor element. If a fault occurs in an element, it is automatically disconnected from the rest of the unit. The unit can still function, but with reduced output.
Whenever the individual unit of capacitor bank is protected by fuse, it is necessary to provide discharge resistance in each of the units. While each capacitor unit generally has fuse protection, if a unit fails and its fuse blows, the voltage stress on other units in the same series row increases.
3. Short circuit protection In addition to the relay functions described above the capacitor banks needs to be protected against short circuits and earth faults. This is done with an ordinary two- or three-phase short circuit protection combined with an earth overcurrent relay.
