APFC Panel
Build APFC Panel with BCH Products
Power factor is the ratio between the KW and the KVA drawn by an electrical load. Where the KW is real power to load and KVA is the apparent load power. It is the measurement how an electrical equipment getting current in actual.
Example: A load with power factor of 0.85, results much higher losses in supply system and consumer has to pay higher bill.
Little improvement in power factor lead to significant reduction in losses since losses are proportional to square of the current.
APFC panels are built to correct the power factor and major components needed to build power factors are:
- LT Capacitors
- Capacitor duty Contactors or Power Contactors
- MCB
- Wires
- APFC Relay
- Enclosure
Each components requires to be heavy duty and has to perform safely to sustain heavy inrush currents of capacitors and timely switching of capacitors to achieve the required power factor correction
BCH LT Capacitors are safe to avoid any bursting and made with thick polypropylene films. Easily available from 1KVAR to 50 KAVR. Learn more
