Industry background Chemical industry involves many mechanical processes with demanding quality requirements. Before any mechanical smelting, casting, or stamping, an induction melting furnace is used to melt metal. Most induction melting furnaces use a 6-pulse or 12-pulse rectifier, which produces high volumes of harmonic and reactive power. As a result, the production efficiency of induction mel...

Rated insulation level The combination of voltage values that characterizes the insulation of the equipment with regard to its capability to withstand dielectric stresses. These values are selected based on the rated voltage of the bank/system. Standard insulation values are given for altitudes <1000 m above sea level. For higher altitudes, a correction factor must be used. Lightning impulse te...

In an L.V/M.V/H.V electrical installation, capacitor banks (or Static var generator/Active harmonic filter)can be installed at 3 different levels. 1.Global installation Advantages: - No reactive energy bill. - Represents the most economical solution since all the power is concentrated at one point and the expansion coefficient makes it possible to optimize banks - Relieves the transformer. Remark:...

ZDDQ power quality correction products are part of the solution. Most utilities charge for peak electrical demand on each month’s electrical bill. The demand charge is to allow the utilities to recoup part of their capital investment in the distribution network they operate. Each customer pays a demand charge for its peak operating load. Often inherent in the structure of these demand charges is a...

var The unit of measurement for reactive power. Active power (P) Active power is the useful power that does the actual work. Active power is measured in W, kW, MW. Reactive power (Q) Reactive power is a product of an AC system. Reactive power is used to produce magnetic fields. Reactive power is mea- sured in var, kvar, Mvar. Apparent power (S) Apparent power or total power is a combination of act...
