Power factor is the percentage of consumed power(KW) versus supplied power(KVA). This is important because a low power factor can waste energy, result in inefficient use of electrical power, and often result in higher energy bills. Power Factor Correction will improve the energy efficiency of any electrical system, but a reduction in your power bill is only available where a power company charges ...

HV/MV Power factor correction is directly related to the different aspects that assist the technical management of transport and distribution networks. These are: Power quality This involves the increase in the levels of voltage in substation busbars and line ends. Optimisation of the installation's cost of operation In other words, the decrease of the reactive energy and, therefore, the reduction...

Introduction to Active Harmonic Filter Suitable to be fitted within large installation systems, Active Harmonic Filters are used to eliminate, or at least mitigate, harmonics experienced from power received from the Australian national grid. The electricity which is delivered to a property is not necessarily ‘clean’ and therefore properties can experience harmonics. Harmonic currents lead to power...

Why harmonics analysis? When a voltage and/or current waveform is distorted, it causes abnormal operating conditions in a power system such as: Voltage Harmonics can cause additional heating in induction and synchronous motors and generators. Voltage Harmonics with high peak values can weaken insulation in cables, windings, and capacitors. Voltage Harmonics can cause malfunction of different elect...

Power Factor Penalty An electric rate may also include additional charges when the customer has a power factor less than some preset limit, typically between 80 and 90 percent. This is called a power factor penalty since it is a penalty assessed on the customers electrical bill for lower than optimum power factor. Special devices called capacitors can be installed by either the utility or the cust...

Harmonics and Active Power Filter In recent years, the use of non-linear load is increasing day by day. Non-linear loads such as traditional diode/ thyristor rectifiers with inductive load generate harmonic and reactive current, which leads to poor power factor, low energy efficiency, and harmful disturbance to other appliances. Also, in recent years, the large-scale use of the power electronic eq...

Power Qaulity Issue Power quality issues can increase your utility and operating costs. In a 3-phase power system, any disturbance on one parameter (magnitude, frequency, waveform, or symmetry) is classified as a power quality problem. Even minor disruptive voltage fluctuations can cause major issues from equipment malfunctions, to flickering lights, to complete power shutdowns. Power quality prob...

Power factor penalty in power bills We've found that many people struggle to understand how Power Factor (PF) impacts demand charges. Frequently, end use customers pay a significant premium each month in demand charges because their PF is below a threshold set by the utility in the rate tariff. Oftentimes its not obvious to the untrained eye when there are extra charges associated with a bad PF on...
