During a short circuit there will be electromagnetic forces which determine the required busbar size and the support size. In addition to that we need to be careful about the extreme overheating of the busbars due to the high current, which leads to softening of the material and damage to the support structure. At […]
There is a norm that since capacitor banks are static type electrical equipment, regular maintenance is not required. But capacitors need to be monitored and maintained regularly. The unawareness and the negligence of the users may leads to reduce the life expectancy or failures of the capacitors which would cause an ultimate loss for your […]
As the name suggests, Surge Protective Devices are used to protect the Electrical Installations from transient over voltages what we called as voltage surges. These transient over voltages are defined as electrical surges lasts for short duration occurred due to sudden release of energy which is previously stored or induced either naturally occurring or man-made. […]
Do the harmonics in your distribution system is a potential threat for your capacitor bank? Yes. When a capacitor bank is installed in a harmonic rich environment, they create a low impedance path and magnify the magnitude of current and voltage harmonics in a system resulting in parallel resonant effect. With this resonant phenomena, the […]
