Due to the rapid development of power electronic technology, the nonlinear characteristics of industrial and agricultural power loads, especially transportation and civil electrical products are becoming more and more serious, and the power factor of users is also declining. Therefore, reactive power compensation devices are more and more widely used. The power compensation device is used to suppl...
Three-phase lines are common: three-phase three wire, three-phase four wire The three - phase three - wire system is star connection neutral point ungrounded and Angle connection method, the general high - voltage power supply uses three - phase three - wire system, three - phase four - wire is star connection neutral point grounding, low - voltage system uses three - phase four - wire system. &nb...
Effect of Poor Power Factor The major effect of poor power factor is higher value of line current. We know that power factor (pf) is an important parameter for calculation of power in an AC circuit. For a given power and voltage, the current flowing through the line is inversely proportional to the power factor. This means that a poor power factor i.e. low power factor will result in hig...
Research background Because the value of harmonic loss is smaller than that of fundamental loss and the calculation is difficult, it is generally ignored in the theoretical calculation of line loss. However, with the development of power electronics technology, the nature of power generation and electrical equipment is becoming increasingly complex, and various nonlinear components put into ...
With the development of society and the increase of demand for electricity, Reactive power compensation technology has developed rapidly, including Static VAR Compensation and Dynamic Reactive Power compensation, and has gained rich operating experience. However, some problems have also been exposed in practice. Some reactive power compensation devices are inconvenient to move, and the equipment m...

Static var generator SVG is adjusted to exchange capacitive or inductive current to maintain or control specific parameters (Power Factor) of the electrical power system. Static var generator is a real time var compensator. SVG provides dynamic reactive power compensation and is directly connected parallely to the bus of networks. SVG's reactive power is generated by capacitors of harmonic f...
Power Factor in Networks Power factor is a measure of the phase difference between the voltage and current in an AC power system. In purely resistive loads (such as an incandescent lightbulb or electric kettle) the current is in phase with the voltage and there is ‘unity’ power factor. Capacitive and inductive loads (such as a capacitor banks or inductive motor respectively) will cause...
