High-voltage capacitors
In transmission systems, reactive power is needed to maintain the voltage to deliver active power. A lack of reactive power leads to an inefficient use of the electrical network and results in voltage sags, overloaded transformers, lines, cables, etc.
Medium-Voltage Capacitors
Capacitors are very beneficial in power grids. They provide the reactive power needed by electrical motors, transformers, etc. This increases the transmission capacity and reduces losses thanks to higher power factors. They enable the power factor targets of the utilities to be met.
Low-Voltage Capacitors
Power Quality of the low voltage network is an important challenge for today’s industrial and commercial applications. Good Power Quality leads to trouble free and efficient operation of installations.
Improving the performance, quality and efficiency of electrical systems
In transmission systems, reactive power is needed to maintain the voltage to deliver active power. A lack of reactive power leads to an inefficient use of the electrical network and results in voltage sags, overloaded transformers, lines, cables, etc.
In industry, motor loads and other electrical loads require reactive power to convert electrical energy into useful work.
