Now since we have very well established that suitably designed Capacitor Banks can be connected in parallel to the loads connected to DG. However, what is the impact if one keeps on improving the power factor and the power factor goes on the leading side.
Capacitor Bank Definition: A capacitor bank is a collection of multiple capacitors used to store electrical energy and enhance the functionality of electrical power systems. Power Factor Correction: Power factor correction involves adjusting the capacitor bank to optimize the use of electricity, thereby improving the efficiency and reducing costs.
Connecting the capacitor bank across the line helps absorb part of the reactive power drawn by these loads, resulting in improved power factor and therefore better efficiency in your power system.
Parallel energy has typically been viewed as a non-issue for internally fused capacitor banks because the current limiting fuses are commonly used. However, fuse sizing/rating must still be considered when designing the unit to ensure fusing selection is appropriate to handle discharge energy into the shorted element through its fuse.
By reducing the circulating current caused by inductive loads within a circuit, capacitor banks increase efficiency, decrease energy costs, and extend the life span of electrical systems and substations. Furthermore, capacitor banks are necessary for compensating reactive power in order to steady voltage fluctuations within a power system.
For a fuseless bank, capacitor units are only connected in series (illustrated in Figure 10); they are never placed in parallel like an externally or internally fused capacitor bank. Therefore, when analyzing a fuseless capacitor bank, the number of internal series sections is an important consideration.
