Capacitor banks play a pivotal role in substations, serving the dual purpose of enhancing the power factor of the system and mitigating harmonics, which ultimately yields a cascade of advantages. Primarily, by improving the power factor, capacitor banks contribute to a host of operational efficiencies.
This paper reviews p rinciples of shunt capacitor bank design for substation installation and basic protection techniques. The protection of shunt capacitor bank includes: a) protection against internal bank faults and faults that occur inside the capacitor unit; and, b) protection of the bank against system disturbances.
In this section, we delve into a practical case study involving the selection and calculation of a capacitor bank situated within a 132 by 11 KV substation. The primary objective of this capacitor bank is to enhance the power factor of a factory.
Segment (or group) installation Segment installation of capacitors assumes compensation of a loads segment supplied by the same switchgear. Capacitor bank is usually controlled by the microprocessor based device called power factor regulator. Beside, segment installation practice demands protection for capacitor banks.
This installation type assumes one capacitors compensating device for the all feeders inside power substation. This solution minimize total reactive power to be installed and power factor can be maintained at the same level with the use of automatic regulation what makes the power factor close to the desired one.
Capacitor bank is usually controlled by the microprocessor based device called power factor regulator. Beside, segment installation practice demands protection for capacitor banks.
