EcoPower Cube is the most promising solution to enable a more sustainable and environmentally friendly transportation system. Traditionally, electrical energy storage for vehicle applications has been limited to starting lighting ignition (SLI) sub-systems. However, the increase in vehicle electrification has led to the rise in the energy, power, and cycling requirements of vehicle energy storage ...
Benefits of reactive power compensation What is reactive power? Reactive power is the electrical energy used to establish and maintain a circuit's electric and magnetic fields, particularly in devices with electromagnetic coils. Reactive power is measured in VAR (volt-amperes reactive) or kVAR (kilovolt-ampere active). The formula for reactive power is: Q=V×I×sinϕ Q: reacti...
How to do power factor correction?Introduction to Power Factor Correction: Importance and Design The growing integration of photovoltaic (PV) systems into the grid has created challenges for utility providers. One of the primary concerns is that many power electronics used in these systems consume reactive power, leading to a low power factor and system instability. As a result, power factor corre...
I. INTRODUCTION The name power quality has become one of the most productive concepts in the power industry since late 1980s. Power quality is the “Degree to which both the utilization and delivery of electric power affects the performance of electrical equipment”.Power quality is decided by magnitude of voltage and frequency. Voltage quality problem is divided into under voltage, over...
Understanding the Importance of Temperature Testing for Electrical Devices What is temperature testing, and why is it important for electrical systems? Electrical systems need to withstand a wide range of temperatures to function properly. Temperature testing is an essential part of the electrical engineering process. Temperature testing helps engineers identify potential design proble...
How Power Distribution Systems Work?Electrical power supplied to residential, commercial, and industrial buildings is typically generated by a utility at a centralized location and then transmitted and distributed through the utility’s power transmission and distribution system to its end users. A utility's power transmission and distribution system is responsible for controlling, pro...
Dynamic Voltage Restorer: The Guardian of Power Systems In modern industrial and commercial applications, maintaining power quality is crucial for the reliable operation of sensitive equipment. One of the major challenges in power quality is voltage sags and dips, which can disrupt operations and cause equipment malfunction. Enter the Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) – a critical piece of equi...
Static Var Generator (SVG) and Energy Saver are both technologies aimed at improving the efficiency of electrical systems, but they work in different ways. However, when used together, they contribute to significant energy savings and improved power quality. Here’s how each operates and how they complement each other: 1. Static Var Generator (SVG) · An SVG or ASVG is a ...
