GENERAL APPLICATIONS

These units find application on medium voltage and H.T. systems rated 1.1 KV and above.

These capacitors are used by a customer for

Improving the P.F. at an installation to delete penalty for low power factor in the electricity bills.

Hold down the maximum demand in KVA to reduce the electricity bills and extract maximum power within the limits imposed by the supply authorities.

  Also to get the rebate on P.F. which starts from 0.96 to Unity at the rate of 1% per increase in 0.01 in power factor (e.g. - for 0.96 : 1%, for 0.97 : 2 % and on...)

These capacitors are used by electricity boards for

Regulating the voltages along the transmission and distribution lines.

Release additional connection capacity at various distributing sub-stations
