Q&A
Q: 1.What are the main functions of low-voltage capacitors?
A: The core function of low-voltage capacitors is reactive power compensation (power factor correction), specifically bringing the following benefits:
(1)Improved power factor, avoiding electricity bill penalties: Raising the power factor to above 0.95 meets the power supply department's assessment requirements, avoiding power factor penalties due to excessively low power factors.
(2)Reduced line losses: After reducing reactive current, the active power loss (I²R) of the line is significantly reduced, with actual measurements showing a reduction of 20%~40% in line losses.
(3)Released transformer and line capacity: Under the same active load, the apparent power is reduced, releasing the load-carrying capacity of transformers and cables, delaying capacity expansion investment.
(4)Improved voltage quality: Reduced line voltage drop, stabilized terminal voltage, and improved the operating efficiency of electrical equipment.
Q: 2.What are the precautions for installing low-voltage capacitors?
A: (1)Ambient Temperature: The operating ambient temperature for capacitors is generally -25℃ to +55℃ (refer to the product nameplate for specific details). They should be installed in a well-ventilated cabinet, avoiding direct sunlight and proximity to heat sources.
(2)Installation Spacing: Sufficient heat dissipation spacing should be maintained between capacitors (recommended ≥25mm). When arranging capacitors on different levels within the cabinet, hot air convection should be considered.
(3)Vertical Installation: Cylindrical capacitors should be installed vertically (terminals facing upwards) to avoid uneven distribution of internal insulating oil due to tilting.
(4)Discharge Device: Ensure the built-in discharge resistor of the capacitor is intact, or use an external discharge device to ensure that the residual voltage drops below 50V within 1 minute after power failure.
(5)Grounding: The capacitor casing and cabinet should be reliably grounded.
(6)Keep Away from Harmonic Sources: The compensation cabinet should be kept as far away as possible from high-power frequency converters, rectifiers, and other harmonic sources, or a reactor should be installed on the incoming line side.
