𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻? 🤔 The capacities circuit is similar to the inductive circuit, as reactive power is exchanged between the capacities element and the power source. The only difference is a half-cycle time shift⏳. When the inductive circuit absorbs energy from the power source for half a cycle, it coincides with the capacitor discharging🔄, while in the other half cycle, the inductive element returns energy to the power source, and the capacities circuit charges🔋. By paralleling the capacitor with the inductance, the capacities element can replace the power source in exchanging this part of the reactive power🔗. AC power is necessary to provide active power⚡️, and it's actually quite challenging to achieve complete reactive power compensation. 📌 𝙉𝙤𝙩𝙚: The equivalent circuit of most electrical equipment can be seen as a series circuit of resistor R and inductance L. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗼𝗻 𝗠𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗱𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗚𝗿𝗶𝗱?💡 Common methods of reactive power compensation in the power grid include centralized compensation, distributed local compensation, and single-machine local compensation. ▪  𝘾𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙯𝙚𝙙 𝘾𝙤𝙢𝙥𝙚𝙣𝙨𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣📍  Connecting the compensating capacitor directly to the high or low voltage bus-bar of the substation to compensate for the reactive power within the power supply range of the substation is known as centralized compensation. Capacitors are centrally installed on the 6-10 KV bus-bar of the enterprise or regional main step-down substation to improve the power factor of the entire substation, making the reactive power within the substation's power supply range basically balanced⚖️. This can reduce reactive power loss in high-voltage lines and improve the power supply voltage quality of the substation📈. ▪ 𝘿𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙞𝙗𝙪𝙩𝙚𝙙 𝙇𝙤𝙘𝙖𝙡 𝘾𝙤𝙢𝙥𝙚𝙣𝙨𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣🔧  Connecting the capacitors to the bus-bar of the workshop power box to compensate for the reactive load of nearby motors is known as distributed local compensation, compared to centralized compensation in the main distribution room. This method is suitable for high-voltage distribution devices or low-voltage power devices near distribution boxes with a relatively dense group of motors🔋. It is particularly suitable for motor groups of 4 KW or less in low voltage or backup high-voltage motor groups. ▪ 𝙎𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙡𝙚-𝙈𝙖𝙘𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙚 𝙇𝙤𝙘𝙖𝙡 𝘾𝙤𝙢𝙥𝙚𝙣𝙨𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣🛠  Placing the capacitors near the motor for individual local compensation is called single-machine local compensation. This method is mainly suitable for motors that operate for long hours annually⏲️. #PowerGrid #Electrician #ReactivePowerCompensation #Capacitor #Inductor #PowerSource #ElectricalEquipment #Motor #PowerFactor #ElectricalNetwork

🔍 Reviewing Your kVA on Half-Hourly Meters ⚡ Dear TPI partners, Are you working with a business with a half-hourly (HH) meter? 📊 Monitoring your kVA (Kilovolt-Amperes) is essential for managing energy costs and optimizing consumption. Here's how to review your kVA with your IDNO (Independent Distribution Network Operator): Identify Your IDNO: Find your IDNO details on your energy bills or meter documentation. They’re responsible for metering and data collection at your site. Access Your Half-Hourly Data: Your IDNO can provide access to your half-hourly consumption data, including your kVA readings, typically available through their portal or on request. 📅 Review kVA Data: Check your kVA to understand your power demand during peak and off-peak hours. This helps you spot inefficiencies and reduce costs! 💡 Consult an Electrical Engineer: If you notice high kVA usage, consider consulting an electrical engineer. They can advise on optimizing your power load or even recommend changing your kVA capacity for cost savings. ⚙️ Consult with Your Supplier: If you notice spikes or irregularities, contact your energy supplier to discuss potential solutions for load management and cost reduction. 📞 Regularly reviewing your kVA ensures you’re not overpaying for your energy usage and can help your business become more energy-efficient. 🌱 #EnergyManagement #kVA #BusinessEfficiency #HalfHourlyMeter #IDNO #ElectricalEngineer #EnergyCosts #Sustainability

⭕ Reactive Power is impacting your energy bill. Why continuous measurement and monitoring is necessary to determine the correct compensation system and to monitor it. Reactive energy is produced and consumed by electrical devices that have inductive or capacitive components. It is called reactive energy because it does not perform useful work directly, but it is necessary for the operation of many electrical devices, such as motors, transformers, and fluorescent lights. Reactive energy is important to consider when designing and operating electrical systems because it can have a significant impact on the efficiency and quality of the power supply. A high level of reactive power can have several consequences for an electrical system, including: ▶︎ Penalties and claims ▶︎ Reduced power factor ▶︎ Voltage drops ▶︎ Overheating ▶︎ Increased energy costs: ▶︎ Reduced system capacity Therefore it is important to manage and compensate for reactive power because it can lead to increased energy costs, reduced power quality, and decreased efficiency of electrical systems. 🔵 Continuous measurement and monitoring of reactive power is necessary to determine the correct compensation system and to ensure that it is providing the required level of compensation. 🔵 Determining the correct compensation techniques and capacity without being based on measurement data can be expensive and dangerous. ▶️ The Electrex - Akse srl systems allow for proactive management of reactive power and can help prevent problems before they occur. As a result of the continuous analyses, the reactive energy can be constantly zeroed or drastically reduced by exploiting the energy automation functions of the Electrex solutions. 👉 Discover more here: https://lnkd.in/dpSpUmMh 🔵 Or contact me to learn more about our solutions and our business partnership program. #reactiveenergy #energyautomation #energymonitoring
