One of the main problems is that most of the power electronics used consume reactive power, which causes low power factor and system instability–a problem that has put power factor correction methods under development again. This article discusses the two most used reactive power compensation methods.
This article presents an efficient voltage regulation method using capacitive reactive power. Simultaneous operation of photovoltaic power systems with the local grids induces voltage instabilities in the distribution lines. These voltage fluctuations cross the allowable limits on several occasions and cause economic losses.
For example, the configuration for a 5-stage capacitor bank with a 170 KVAR maximum reactive power rating could be 1:1:1:1:1, meaning 5*34 KVAR or 1:2:2:4:8 with 1 as 10 KVAR. The stepping of stages and their number is set according to how much reactive power changes in a system.
To be honest, transmission and distribution networks are full of problems. But that’s nothing new, and you already knew that. This technical article will shed some light on solving some pretty severe problems in transmission and distribution networks by using reactive power (VAr) compensators.
Power capacitors are rated by the amount of reactive power they can generate. The rating used for the power of capacitors is KVAR. Since the SI unit for a capacitor is farad, an equation is used to convert from the capacitance in farad to equivalent reactive power in KVAR.
The capacitive reactive power is generated through the capacitance producing devices serially or shunt connected to a load , , . A significant amount of studies was devoted to the methods to produce reactive power, such as DSTATCOMs , , , STATCOM , , , and real electrical capacitors .
