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...

Typical non-linear loads We will be focusing on the six pulse rectifier bridge. The 3 phase rectifier has a key role to play because a significant portion of the electrical energy is drawn from loads with this type of front-end circuit. One typical application that can be mentioned is the variable speed motor drive, which has been used for years with high growth rates in almost every industrial se...

What's the Definition of Power Factor? Power Factor Definition: Power factor(PF for short) is the ratio between KW and KVA drawn by an electrical load where the KW is the actual load power and the KVA is the apparent load power. It is a measure of how effectively the current is being converted into useful work output and more particularly is a good indicator of the effect of the load current on th...

STATCOM will be utilized in the night for power factor correction and voltage control at the terminals of an induction motor operating at poor power factor. PV solar farms produce power during the day and are completely idle in the nights. The proposed new control on PV solar system will help in increase the utilization of the PV solar system. A key component of the PV solar plant is a voltage sou...

There are a couple of principles to achieve reactive power compensation. The simplest solution is without any doubts a combination of switched passive elements, i.e. switched capacitors and inductors. Figure 1 shows qualitatively the reactive current versus connected voltage of such a solution. The reactive current depends linearly on the grid voltage and as a consequence the reactive power change...

Power Factor Correction The active power produced by the active current can alone be turned into an effective use for the consumer; while the reactive power produced by the reactive current does not yield usable power, and consequently, is not registered on the active performance meter. The reactive power has, however, a negative effect on generators, transformers, and conductor lines, while causi...

How much can be saved? Ultimately the level of energy saving achieved will be dictated by a combination of the incoming supply voltage level and the types of electrical equipment in use. The higher the supply voltage, the greater the potential to make energy savings. However different types of electrical equipment deliver different levels of energy saving for the same reduction in voltage. Voltage...
