Capacitive Load Bank.
Voltage utilized in industry are of either
resisitive, inductive or capacitive types these provide various types of
power factor and the power system behaves accordingly.Capacitive load
banks are used to provide leading power factor in anypower system,
normally all industrial units have lagging power factor & hence
utilize capacitive load banks for getting leading power factor which
compensates with the lagging power factor & makes the power system
work near unity, this reduces the reactive power of the system improving
the overall efficiency Capacitors are arranged in various combinations
in each phase to provide balanced capacitance per phase. This model is
the industrial/educational model suitable for demonstrating to students
the complete know of the basics, change of capacitance in steps, study
of efficiency & maintenance of these loads packaged in small
rating.Students can make connections of their own with the help of the
terminations provided.
