Capacitor Bank details
Capacitor Bank Capacitor bank can be connected in LT or HT side In Industries it is connected in HT side due to High rated motors installed and requirement of Reactive power is more. Where as in commercial Buildings Capacitor banks of smaller capacities are placed in LT room . Why we need Capacitor Bank? Capacitor Bank improves power Factor gives Leading PF, helps industry from getting low PF penalties from Electricity Board. Reduces losses. Improves motor performance. P= V I cosวพ, PF inversely proportional to voltage & current. HT Capacitors in Industrial Sector In industries HT Capacitors are used & are placed at Switchyard. HT capacitors placed in between Series reactor & Residual voltage Transformer. ...
