 REACTIVE POWER COMPENSATION CONCEPT

Basic characteristics
Many electrical devices, equipments and systems needs an electromagnetic field for their
standard operation. This physical necessity leads to a consumption of reactive power which is used to
provide basic function but not any active power. It means that transmission and distribution system is
loaded with this reactive power and that’s not an economically effective use and therefore it’s penalized
by electrical utility companies.
The solution is to use local power factor compensation to provide the required rective power
from power capacitors directly to the appliance to avoid undesired load of the mains network.

Application
Frequent use of power electronic devices with nonlinear loads leads to harmonic distortion
in electrical system. This nonsinusoidal load causes increase of effective current of power capacitor
and other components of the system as well as the possibility of capacitor resonance with other
inductive loads. Finally it may lead to problems or even failures in the installation. The solution is to
use detuning (filtering) reactors, which creates a series resonant circuit with power capacitors. This
detuned system prevents the installation from resonance effect and also acts as a filter for higher
harmonic content. Usually there is recommended to use detuning reactors for the total voltage
distortion THD-U higher than 3 %

POWER FACTOR RELAY

PFR 120b Salient Features

• Manual, auto switching control
80b • Automatic C/K and rated step adjustment
• Automatic CT polarity correction
60b • Alarm Relay
• User-friendly setting
96b • Complies with IEC 61000-6-2 standard

Application
Power Factor Controllers are used for measurement and control of power factor control units
for central reactive power compensation.The Power Factor measured by PFR is compared with the
set point values in order to provide necessary compensation, Power Factor Controller switches
capacitor steps ON and OFF automatically. PFR is microcontroller relay, designed for flush mounting
with rear plug-in connectors.In addition it displays the system’s Cosφ,in Automatic Operating Mode,
PFR displays the RMS value of Voltage (V), Current (I), Active Power (W), Reactive Power (kvar) and
Apparent Power (VA) of measuring phase.
