If we consider a facility where considerable reactive load variations are taking place, capacitor banks connected to that installation has to follow up a dynamic operation with its steps since it has to respond to the dynamic reactive load variation very fast and provide the required KVAR to the system to maintain its power factor […]
Ensuring Mechanical Impact Protection for Electrical Switchboards Introduction: Electrical switchboards are vital components of electrical systems, serving as the nerve center for power distribution. Ensuring their safety and reliability is of paramount importance in various applications. One crucial aspect that contributes to their resilience is the IK test. In this article, we will […]
The importance of design software in the switchboard industry The use of software in the switchboard industry has a profound impact on improving safety, performance, and productivity.

Switchgear panels are used to control, protect and isolate electrical equipment, and high temperatures inside these panels can indicate a fault or failure. During the functioning stage, overheating conditions in electrical switchboards can occur due to some reasons such as overloaded circuits, unbalanced loads, and loose connections, which can reduce the lifespan of equipment and […]
A transformer’s primary and secondary windings have resistance and reactance, collectively referred to as impedance. The impedance opposes the flow of current when the transformer is connected to an AC power supply, causing a voltage drop across the windings. When an AC voltage is applied to the primary winding, it generates a magnetic flux. […]
