High-Voltage Reactive Power Compensation Cabinet: Efficient Energy-Saving Solution for Power Quality Enhancement
01 Product Overview
إن High-Voltage Reactive Power Compensation Cabinet is a key device for 6kV/10kV and above power systems, designed to reduce electricity costs and improve grid power الجودة. By connecting parallel capacitor banks, it increases system power factor, reduces line losses, and lowers energy costs.
Widely applied in metallurgy, mining, building materials, petrochemicals, and heavy machinery, it supports local reactive power compensation for high-power high-voltage motors و centralized compensation in distribution systems, effectively raising the power factor from 0.75 to over 0.95 and preventing utility penalties for low power factor.
02 Working Principle & Technical Features
1. Intelligent Working Principle
The cabinet operates based on parallel capacitor compensation. Most industrial loads are inductive (e.g., asynchronous motors), drawing significant reactive power. This creates a phase difference between voltage and current, resulting in low power factor.
By adding parallel capacitors, capacitive reactive power offsets the inductive reactive power, reducing phase difference, improving power factor, lowering transformer and line losses, and enhancing grid quality.
2. Automatic Control Mechanism
Modern cabinets use smart controllers to monitor system voltage, reactive power, and power factor in real time. When reactive power exceeds preset thresholds, the controller sends signals to high-voltage vacuum switches to connect capacitor banks automatically.
When reactive power drops below set levels, the controller disconnects capacitor banks. The process is fully automatic, maintaining a stable power factor of 0.95–0.99 without overcompensation.
