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...
Power Factor Correction and Reactive Power Compensation Power Factor Correction(PFC) is done by electricity consumers to avoid penalties on account of large KVA demand or lower power factor. Normally, such penalties are imposed on industrial consumers. Therefore, industries need more lagging KVAr due to induction motors or otherwise, install capacitors banks or Static Var Generator(SVG) for power ...
Variable Speed Drives (VSDs) Do you have AC motors in your facility?Do these motors need a variable output? The growing popularity of Variable Speed Drives (VSDs) is a key driver of energy efficiency, but Variable Speed Drives cause power quality problems, one of which is the harmonics within power systems. So networks requires more effective means to mitigate harmonics. In C...
Over its 100-year history, welding has become one of the most essential technical skills in manufacturing and fabrication. The process of using high-temperature, electrical-powered heat to fuse two pieces of metal or synthetic material has been incorporated throughout the industry in an increasingly wide variety of applications that rely on a range of tools and techniques. But Electrical welding m...
Capacitive reactive power The reactive current of the load is generally inductive, so we can use capacitor bank to compensate it. However, the reactive power generated by loads such as UPS and charging pile is capacitive. Capacitor banks cannot compensate capacitive reactive power, so the latest reactive power compensation technology SVG Static var generator needs to be used to compensate cap...
What is the power quality problems at sites with welding machines? The most common power quality problems associated with welding machines are voltage sags, harmonic pollution, and electromagnetic interference. Voltage sags can cause the welding machine to operate at a lower than expected output, resulting in poor weld quality. Harmonic distortion pollution can cause interference with other equipm...
Site conditions The site is located in Hangzhou Asian Games Village.The project has more than 20 power distribution rooms. Due to the main load being fire-fighting facilities, which are generally not started, the transformers almost all operate without load, and the cable length is long, resulting in capacitive reactive power at both the high and low voltage sides, which cannot be compensated by t...
