Capacitor Bank Electrical Panel And Role For Users

Definition of Capacitor Bank Panel

Capacitor Bank Panel Is an electrical device that is assembled in parallel or in series consisting of a combination of several capacitors and paired with other electrical devices such as magnetic contactors, MCCBs, circuit breakers and others. The manufacture of the capacitor bank panel itself is done manually by individuals or companies that have expertise in the electrical field. While the application of the capacitor bank itself is generally used in industries or factories, office buildings, mines and apartments and other buildings that have large power.

Capsitor Bank Variations For Electrical Power

The capacitor bank itself varies greatly depending on the capacity of the electric power used by the user.Here are some variations of electric power for capacitor banks.

  1. 33 KVA Electric power using a 20 KVAR capacitor bank
  2. 50 KVA Electric Power using a 6 step 30 kvar capacitor bank
  3. Electric power 100 kva using a 6 step 90 kvar capacitor bank
  4. 200 kva electric power using 150 kvar capacitor bank
  5. 500-630 kva electric power using 600 kvar capacitor bank
  6. 860 kva electric power using 750 kvar capacitors

Essential Components of Electrical panel Capacitor Bank

  • CB (Circuit Breaker), such as ACB and MCCB and LBS (Load breaker switch)
  • Capacitor Bank, some sizes of capacitor banks are capacitor banks of 10 kvar, 20 kvar, 30 kvar, 50 kvar, 100 kvar and so on.
  • Magnetic Contactor
  • Mccb (Modulated Case Circuit Breaker)
  • Copper Busbar.
  • Power factor regulator capacitor bank
Functions and Benefits of Using Capacitor Bank Electrical Panels
Broadly speaking, the function of the bank capacitor panel is to increase the efficiency of electric power and improve the power factor close to or equal to one.While the benefits of using the bank capacitor panel are to increase the quality of power and increase the ability to use electrical equipment for users.Another benefit is to reduce the risk of bill fines from electricity providers.For the complete function of using bank capacitors for users is :
  • Increase the power factor value of the electricity provider close to or equal to one
  • Reduce reactive power surges due to large electrical loads such as the use of electric motors
  • Avoid the risk of fines from electricity providers due to excessive reactive power surges
  • Balancing voltage and reducing voltage drop
  • Ensure the use of power in accordance with the amount of power provided by the electricity provider or losses in power usage can be minimized.
The use of bank capacitor electrical panels plays an important role in efficient use of electrical power for users, especially in industrial companies with large electricity usage. Bank capacitor panels can be a solution to optimize energy use and reduce your operational costs. Proper use can be a long-term benefit for the sustainability of your business operations.
