 What means Power Factor Correction?
Reactive power
All electrical machines (motors, transformers)
consuming AC current use two types of power:
active power and reactive power.
Only active power (kW) is transformed into
mechanical power and heat.
Reactive power (kvar) is used to magnetize the
core of the electrical machines (transformers
and motors), allowing them to operate.
The technical consequences of the flow of
reactive power highly influence the selection of
equipment and operation f the networks,
bringing about economic consequences.
The flow of reactive power in transmission and
distribution networks causes:
▇ transformer overloads；
▇ voltage drops at line ends;
▇ a rise in temperature in the supply cabbies,
producing losses of active power;
▇ over sizing of load protection due to
harmonic currents.
These 4 reasons make it necessary to bring
reactive power as close as possible to the
motors and transformers.
This is why capacitors used as generators of
reactive power.
Consumption and production of reactive
power by network components
An electrical network is characterized by
resistances, reactors and capacitances:
▇ the resistance R which transforms electrical
power directly and irreversibly into heat.
▇ the inductance L which transforms electrical
power into mechanical power or into another
type of electrical power , by the means of the
magnetic field produced by the current.
▇ the capacitance C which, most often,
produces reactive power.
Synchronous machines:
By definition, these machines are used as
generators (of active power) when they
transform mechanical energy into electrical
power; otherwise they are used as motors.
These machines can produce reactive power if
the excitation varies.In some cases, the
machine does not supply any active power; it is
then used as a synchronous phase converter.
Synchronous motors are rarely used as
modulating devices.
Asynchronous machines:
They are different from the machines described
above in that they draw the reactive power they
need from the network; this power is
considerable: 25% to 35% of the active power
at full load, much less at partial load.
Asynchronous motors are universal and the
main consumers of the reactive power
produced by industrial networks.
Lines and cables:
The L and C characteristics of overhead lines
are such hat they consume reactive power at
full load.
However, insulated cables have a capacity of
15 to 20times the capacity of overhead lines：
average approximate values for single-pole
cables:
X=0.15Ω/km C=from 0.3 t o 0.5µF/km.
Transformers:
Transformers consume reactive power which
corresponds to approximately 5% to 10% of the
apparent power which flows through them.
Inductances:
Inductances consume only reactive power: HV
limitation inductances, stabilization inductances
(arc furnaces, fluorescent lamps), etc…
Static converters:
All rectifiers and converters consume reactive
power.
Capacitors:
By definition, capacitors generate reactive
power at very high rate, which is why they are
used for this application.
Definitions
▇ active power P=UI cos in W
▇ reactive power Q= UI sin in var
▇ apparent power S= UI in VA
For the three-phase capacitors, the 3 powers should be
multiplied by . The following graph shows these
relations. The powers in the diagram can be converted
into current (by dividing the powers by the voltage).Each
active and reactive power has a corresponding active
and reactive current (magnetizing current).The active
and reactive currents are added to produce an apparent
current, which is the current passing through the line from
the source to the load.It= I total current (flowing in
conductors) Ia= active current transformed into
mechanical power or heatIr= reactive current needed for
magnetic excitation f loads
Ia= It cos Ir=It sin
Cos , called the power factor, is active power (kW)
divided by consumed power (kVA) A good cos
optimizes the transformers and the lines. Optimization
improves as cos tends towards 1.

 r Low Voltage Reactors

The increasing uses of modern power electronic apparatus are producing non-liner
current influences and load the network with harmonics pollution. The capacitor
forms a resonant with the feeding transformer (250-500Hz), it lead to overloading of
capacitor and transformer, interference, voltage distortion; etc. These can be
avoided by filter reactors.

The function of the reactors is to protect capacitors in low voltage power factor
correction systems.

The connection of these reactors in series with capacitors causes a shift of the
resonance frequency of the circuit composed by feeding transformer-reactors
capacitors, so that the resulting self-resonance frequency is well below the line
harmonics foreseen by the ENV 61000-2-2 standard.

Resonance would create undesired effects as overloading of capacitors,

transformer and transmission equipment, amplification of harmonics and voltage
distortion.

The reactors are connected in series with the capacitors to be protected and the
inductive reactance determines the self resonance frequency of the L-C circuit .The
locking factor P% is expressed by the ratio between inductive reactance and
capacitive reactance and it corresponds to the increase of voltage applied to
capacitors, with respect to line voltage .due to circulation of capacitive current in the
reactor.

GMC Low Voltage Contactors

CAPACITOR CONTACTOR of GMKPGMC can be used in 400-690V, AC,

50-60Hz up to control 60Kvar capacitors, when a capacitance is switched to an
AC system. The result is a resonant circuit damped to a greater or lesser
degree. In addition to the nominal current, the capacitor accepts a transient
current that is a multiple (as more then 200times) of its nominal current. Fast
switching, low-bounce contactors should be used.

Because of the leading contacts, the inrush current spikes (reverse

charging operations) are limited or damped by resistance wires.
These current spikes would lead to welding of the contactor’s main
contacts and they are also harmful for the capacitors. Reduction of the
inrush currents also avoids transients and voltage sags.

Leading contacts with a wiper function are used in these capacitor contactors, is
each leading contact is linked to the contactor yoke by a permanent magnet.
The leading contacts close before the main contacts and open when the main
contacts are with certainty closed. This feature of the capacitor contactors
guarantees effective, stable operation throughout useful life. The single
controlled leading contacts also enhance resistance to soiling during operation.

The capacitor contactors are suitable for direct switching of

low-inductance and low-loss capacitor banks (IEC 831, VDE 0560)
with or without detuning reactors. They feature leading auxiliary
switches and damping resistors to reduce peak inrush to<70* Iin
(inrush current). The capacitor contactors are weld inrush current of
200* Iin. The backup fuses gL (gG) should be scaled for 1.6 to 1.8* Iin
all capacitor contactors come with an auxiliary contact (normally
open).

Features
■Excellent damping of inrush current

■Improved power quality(e.g. avoidance of voltage sags)

■Longer useful life of main contacts of capacitor contactor

■Soft switching of capacitor and thus better useful life

■Enhanced mean lifetime of PFC system

Electric draw of 10-20Kva

■Reduced ohmic losses

■Leading contacts with wiper function

■High quality and long operation life

 Active Harmonic Filters

Benefit

Working Principle:
Passive Harmonic Filter (PHF), a harmonic trap which is made of extremely low combination of reactance connected to the
Electronic element power line. Inductor and capacitor, and will trap the specific frequency spectrum harmonic current. Active Harmonic Filter
(AHF) It is a harmonic compensator, which is made of IGBT component and is actively monitor the harmonic spectrum and
amplitude in the power line. A reverse matching harmonic current will be injected to attenuate the active harmonic current
becoming sinusoidal waveform.

The ability of different Harmonics spectrum:

PHF, Individual harmonic LC trap is designed for different harmonic spectrum. AHF, High performance harmonic cancellation
from 2nd to 51st harmonic spectrum in a single Active Power Harmonic Filter.

Impact in variation of line impedance:

PHF, It has potential risk in resonance when line impedance varying within the power network (system). AHF, No impact by
changes of line impedance within the system.

Impact in power frequency variation:

PHF, Harmonic spectrum shifted from the designed harmonic trap, and eventually decreases the attenuation performance.
AHF, No impact in frequency variation, the Active Power Harmonic Filter instantly provides correct harmonic compensating
current even when frequency level changes.

Impact in excessive load increase:

PHF, Could lead to harmonic break down due to overload loading the LC harmonic filter. AHF, Active Power Harmonic Filter
will not breakdown, if overloading occurs. The current limitation protection in Active Harmonic Filter will absorb maximum
harmonic current and mains will take care the balance harmonic current.

Physical size:
PHF, Bigger (3) Big in size, AHF, Smaller (1), Compact in size and can be wall mounted in some power ratings. 100% load,
Ithd[8%,50% % load Ithd[14%10% load, Ithd[17% All be keep in the Ithd < 5%
