 Our solutions….  

Reactive energy management   In electrical networks, reactive energy is responsible for increased line currents, for a given active energy transmitted to loads. The main consequences are: • Necessary over sizing of transmission and distribution

networks by the Utilities, • Increased voltage drops and sags along the distribution

lines, • Additional power losses. This is resulting in increased electricity bills for industrial customers because of: • Penalties applied by most Utilities to reactive energy, • Increased overall kVA demand, • Increased energy consumption within the installations.

Reactive energy management aims to optimize your electrical installation by reducing energy consumption, and improve power availability. CO2 emissions are also globally reduced. Utility power bills are typically reduced by 5 to 10%.

Improve electrical networks and reduce energy costs    Power Factor Correction Every electric machine needs active power (kW) and reactive power (kvar) to operate. The power rating of the installation in kVA is the combination of both: (kVA)² = (kW)² + (kvar)² The Power Factor has been defined as the ratio of active power (kW) by the apparent power (kVA). Power Factor = (kW) / (kVA) The objective of Reactive Energy Management is the improvement of Power Factor, or

"Power Factor Correction". This is typically obtained by producing reactive energy close to the consuming loads, by connection of capacitor banks to the network.

Why reactive energy management?   Principle of reactive energy management  All AC electrical networks consume two types of power: active power (kW) and reactive power (kvar): > The active power P (in kW) is the real power transmitted to loads such as motors, lamps,

heaters, computers … The electrical active power is transformed into mechanical power, heat or light.

> The reactive power Q (in kvar) is used only to supply the magnetic circuits of machines, motors and transformers.

The apparent power S (in kVA) is the vector combination of active and reactive power. In this representation, the Power Factor (P/S) is equal to cosϕ. The circulation of reactive power in the electrical network has major technical and economic consequences. For the same active power P, a higher reactive power means a higher apparent power and thus, a higher current must be supplied. The circulation of active power over time is resulting in active energy (in kWh). The circulation of reactive power over time is resulting in reactive energy (kvarh). In an electrical circuit, the reactive energy is supplied in addition to the active energy. Due to this higher supplied current, circulation of reactive energy on distribution networks results in:

• Overload of transformers, • Higher temperature rise of the supply cables, • Additional losses, • Large voltage drops, • Higher energy consumption and cost, • Less distributed active power. For these reasons, there is a great advantage to generate reactive energy at the load level in order to prevent the unnecessary circulation of current in the network. This is what is known as “power factor correction”. This is obtained by the connection of capacitors, which produce reactive energy in opposition to the energy absorbed by loads such as motors.

Benefits of reactive energy management Optimized management of reactive energy brings economic and technical advantages.

 Savings on the electricity bill: 

• Eliminating penalties on reactive energy and decreasing kVA demand, • Reducing power losses generated in the transformers and conductors of the installation. Example: Loss reduction in a 630 kVA transformer PW = 6,500 W with an initial Power Factor = 0.7. With power factor correction, we obtain a final Power Factor = 0.98 The losses become: 3,316 W, i.e. a reduction of 49%.

Increasing available power:

A high power factor optimizes an electrical installation by allowing a better usage of the components. The power available at the secondary of an MV/LV transformer can therefore be increased by fitting power factor correction equipment at the low voltage side. The opposite table shows the increased available power at the transformer output by improvement of Power Factor from 0.7 to 1.

Reducing the installation size

Installing power factor correction equipment allows the conductors cross-section to be reduced, since less current is absorbed by the compensated installation for the same active power. The opposite table shows the multiplying factor for the conductor cross-section according to the different values of power factor.

 Reducing the voltage drops on installation

Installing capacitors allows the voltage drops to be reduced upstream of the point where the power factor correction device is connected. It avoids the overload of the network and allows the diminution of harmonics so that you will not have to overrate your installation.

 Power Factor Correction guideline  The selection of the Power Factor Correction equipment can follow a 4-step process: • Calculation of the requested reactive energy, • Selection of the compensation mode:

o Global, for the complete installation, o By sectors, o For individual loads, such as large motors.

• Selection of the compensation type: o Fixed, by connection of a fixed-value capacitor bank, o Automatic, by connection of different number of steps, allowing the adjustment of the reactive

energy to the requested value, o Dynamic, for compensation of highly fluctuating loads.

• Taking account of operating conditions and harmonics

Calculation of the requested reactive power The objective is to determine the requested reactive power Qc (kvar) to be installed, in order to improve the power factor cosϕ and reduce the apparent power S. For ϕ' < ϕ, we'll get: cos ϕ ' > cos ϕ and tg ϕ ' < tg ϕ. This is illustrated on the diagram below.

Qc can be determined from the formula: Qc = P. (tg ϕ - tg ϕ '), which is deduced from the diagram. Qc : power of the capacitor bank, in kvar P : active power, in kW tg ϕ: tangent of the phase angle ϕ before compensation, tg ϕ ': tangent of the phase angle ϕ after compensation The parameters ϕ and tg ϕ can be obtained from the billing data, or from direct measurement in the installation.

Example: consider one 1000kW motor with cos ϕ = 0.8 (tg ϕ = 0.75). In order to get cos ϕ = 0.95, it is necessary to install a capacitor bank with a reactive power equal to k x P, i.e. : Qc = 0,421 x 1000 = 421 kvar

Selection of the compensation mode The location of low-voltage capacitors in an installation constitutes the mode of compensation, which may be global (one location for the entire installation), by sectors (section-by-section), at load level, or some combination of the latter two. In principle, the ideal compensation is applied at a point of consumption and at the level required at any instant. In practice, technical and economic factors govern the choice. The place for connection of capacitor banks in the electrical network is determined by:

o the global objective (avoid penalties on reactive energy, relieve of transformer or cables, avoid voltage drops and sags),

o the operating mode (stable of fluctuating loads), o the foreseeable influence of capacitors on the network characteristics, o the installation cost.

Global compensation The capacitor bank is connected at the head of the installation to be compensated in order to provide reactive energy for the whole installation. This configuration is convenient for stable and continuous load factor. Compensation by sectors The capacitor bank is connected at the head of the feeders supplying one particular sector to be compensated. This configuration is convenient for a wide installation, with workshops having different load factors.

Compensation of individual loads The capacitor bank is connected right at the inductive load terminals (especially large motors). This configuration is well adapted when the load power is significant compared to the subscribed power. This is the technical ideal configuration, as the reactive energy is produced exactly where it is needed, and adjusted to the demand.

Selection of the compensation type Different types of compensation shall be adopted depending on the performance requirements and complexity of control:

o Fixed, by connection of a fixed-value capacitor bank, o Automatic, by connection of different number of steps, allowing the adjustment of the reactive

energy to the requested value, o Dynamic, for compensation of highly fluctuating loads.

• Fixed compensation This arrangement uses one or more capacitor(s) to provide a constant level of compensation. Control may be: • Manual: by circuit-breaker or load-break switch, • Semi-automatic: by contactor, • Direct connection to an appliance and switched with it. These capacitors are applied: • At the terminals of inductive loads (mainly motors), • At busbars supplying numerous small motors and inductive appliances for which individual

compensation would be too costly, • In cases where the load factor is reasonably constant. • Automatic compensation This kind of compensation provides automatic control and adapts the quantity of reactive power to the variations of the installation in order to maintain the targeted cos φ. The equipment is applied at points in an installation where the active-power and/or reactive-power variations are relatively large, for example: • At the busbars of a main distribution switch-board, • At the terminals of a heavily-loaded feeder cable. Where the kvar rating of the capacitors is less than, or equal to 15% of the supply transformer rating, a fixed value of compensation is appropriate. Above the 15% level, it is advisable to install an automatically-controlled bank of capacitors. Control is usually provided by contactors. For compensation of highly fluctuating loads, fast and highly repetitive connection of capacitors is necessary, and static switches must be used. • Dynamic compensation This kind of compensation is requested when fluctuating loads are present, and voltage fluctuations should be avoided. The principle of dynamic compensation is to associate a fixed capacitor bank and an electronic var compensator, providing either leading or lagging reactive currents.

The result is a continuously varying and fast compensation, perfectly suitable for loads such as lifts, crushers, spot welding …

Taking account of operating conditions The operating conditions have a great influence on the life expectancy of capacitors. For this reason, different categories of capacitors, with different withstand levels, must be selected according to operating conditions. Capacitors must be selected in function of the following parameters: • Ambient Temperature (°C), • Expected over-current, related to voltage disturbances, including maximum sustained over voltage, • Maximum number of switching operations/year, • Requested life expectancy. Different ranges with different levels of ruggedness are proposed:

o " SDuty": Standard duty capacitors for standard operating conditions, o " HDuty": Heavy duty capacitors for difficult operating conditions, particularly voltage

disturbances,

o "Energy": Specially designed capacitors, for harsh operating conditions, particularly high temperature.

Influence of harmonics in electrical installations  Definition of Harmonics The presence of harmonics in electrical systems means that current and voltage are distorted and deviate from sinusoidal waveforms. Harmonic currents are currents circulating in the networks and which frequency is an integer multiple of the supply frequency. Harmonic currents are caused by non-linear loads connected to the distribution system. A load is said to be non-linear when the current it draws does not have the same waveform as the supply voltage. The flow of harmonic currents through system impedances in turn creates voltage harmonics, which distort the supply voltage. The most common non-linear loads generating harmonic currents are using power electronics, such as variable speed drives, rectifiers, inverters, etc…. Loads such as saturable reactors, welding equipment, arc furnaces, also generate harmonics. Other loads such as inductors, resistors and capacitors are linear loads and do not generate harmonics.  Effects of Harmonics Capacitors are particularly sensitive to harmonic currents since their impedance decreases proportionally to the order of the harmonics present. This can result in a capacitor overload, shortening steadily its operating life. In some extreme situations, resonance can occur, resulting in an amplification of harmonic currents and a very high voltage distortion.  To insure a good and proper operation of the electrical installation, the harmonic level must be taken into account in the selection of the power factor correction equipment. A significant parameter is the cumulated power of the non-linear loads generating harmonic currents.

   Taking account of harmonics Capacitors are particularly sensitive to harmonics. Depending on the magnitude of harmonics in the network, different configurations shall be adopted.

o "SDuty" capacitors: when no significant non-linear loads are present. o "HDuty" capacitors: when a few non-linear loads are present. The rated current of capacitors

must be increased in order to cope with the circulation of harmonic currents.

o "Harmonic HDuty" or "Harmonic Energy": harmonic rated capacitors used with detuned reactors. Applicable when a significant number of non-linear loads are present. Reactors are necessary in order to limit the circulation of harmonic currents and avoid resonance.

o Tuned filters: when non-linear loads are predominant, requesting harmonic mitigation. A

special design is generally necessary, based on on-site measurements and computer simulations of the network.

Since the harmonics are caused by non-linear loads, an indicator for the magnitude of harmonics is the ratio of the total power of non-linear loads to the supply transformer rating. This ratio is noted NLL, and is also known as Gh/Sn:

NLL = Total power of non-linear loads (Gh) Installed transformer rating (Sn) Example: Supply transformer rating: Sn = 630 kVA Total power of non-linear loads: Gh = 150 kVA NLL= (150/630) x 100 = 24%

Rated voltage and current Capacitors must be designed and selected according to the service voltage of the network (US) on which they will operate, taking account of voltage fluctuations, including long duration operating at a supply voltage up to (1.1 x US). According to IEC 60681-1 standard, the rated voltage (UN) of a capacitor is defined as the continuously admissible operating voltage. The rated current (IN) of a capacitor is the current flowing through the capacitor when the rated voltage (UN) is applied at its terminals, supposing a purely sinusoidal voltage and the exact value of reactive power (kvar) generated. Capacitor units shall be suitable for continuous operation at an r.m.s. current of (1.3 x IN). The service current (IS) of a capacitor is defined here as the current flowing through the capacitor when the service voltage (US) is applied at its terminals, supposing a purely sinusoidal voltage and the exact value of reactive power (kvar) generated. In order to operate safely in real conditions, the rated voltage (UN) of capacitors must be higher than the service voltage (US) of the network on which they will operate.

 Low Voltage capacitors with detuned reactors  Reactors have to be associated to capacitor banks for Power Factor Correction in systems with significant non-linear loads, generating harmonics. Capacitors and reactors are configured in a series resonant circuit, tuned so that the series resonant frequency is below the lowest harmonic frequency present in the system. For this reason, this configuration is usually called "Detuned Capacitor Bank", and the reactors referred as "Detuned Reactors". The use of detuned reactors thus prevents harmonic resonance problems, avoids the risk of overloading the capacitors and contributes to reducing voltage harmonic distortion in the network. The tuning frequency can be expressed by the relative impedance of the reactor (in %), or by the tuning order, or directly in Hz. The most common values of relative impedance are 5.67, 7 and 14%. (14% is used with high level of 3rd harmonic voltages).

5.67 4.2 210 252 7 3.8 189 227 14 2.67 134 160

The selection of the tuning frequency of the reactor capacitor depends on multiple factors:

- Presence of zero-sequence harmonics (3, 9, …), - Need for reduction of the harmonic distortion level, - Optimization of the capacitor and reactor components. - Frequency of ripple control system if any.

17

To prevent disturbances of the remote control installation, the tuning frequency is to be selected at a lower value than the ripple control frequency. In a detuned filter application, the voltage across the capacitors is higher than the nominal system voltage. Then, capacitors must be designed to withstand higher voltages. Depending on the selected tuning frequency, part of the harmonic currents is absorbed by the detuned capacitor bank. Then, capacitors must be designed to withstand higher currents, combining fundamental and harmonic currents. Effective reactive energy In the pages relative to detuned capacitor banks (Harmonic HDuty and Harmonic Energy), the reactive energy (kvar) given in the tables is the resulting reactive energy, provided by the association of capacitors and reactors. Capacitors rated voltage Capacitors have been specially designed to operate in detuned bank configurations. Parameters such as the rated voltage, over-voltage and over-current capabilities have been improved, compared to standard configuration.

Operating conditions For networks with significant non-linear loads (NLL<25%) Severe voltage disturbances Severe temperature conditions up to 70°C High switching frequency up to 10000 /year Maximum current withstand is 2.0xIS

Technology Constructed internally with three single phase capacitor elements delta connected. Energy capacitors is the only technology which is capable of giving the longest life, highest overload limits and the highest operating ambient temperature due to the use of the combination of polypropylene film and metallized paper. The presence of the paper ensures high quality impregnation which is critical for increasing dielectric strength. Further, this quality of oil impregnated dielectric system has far superior capabilities in terms of partial discharge behavior and the conduction of heat.

A safe, reliable and high performance solution for power factor correction for severe operating conditions. Main features

• Safety

• Self-healing • Pressure sensitive

disconnector • Discharge resistor

• High life expectancy up to 150000 hours • Very high overload capabilities and good thermal and mechanical properties • Overcurrent withstand capabilities up to 2.0 x IS • Highest operating ambient temperature up to 70°C

Operating conditions For networks with significant non-linear loads (NLL < 20%) Severe voltage disturbances Severe temperature conditions up to 70°C High switching frequency up to 10000 /year Maximum current withstand is 2.5 IS

Technology Constructed internally with three single phase capacitor elements, delta connected and assembled. The design is specially adapted for mechanical stability. The enclosures of the units are designed to ensure that the capacitors operate reliably in hot and humid tropical conditions, without the need of any additional ventilation louvers (see technical specifications). Energy capacitors is the only technology which is capable of giving the longest life, highest overload limits and the highest operating ambient temperature due to the use of the combination of polypropylene film and metallized paper.

Main features High performance: • High life expectancy up to 160000 hours • Very high overload capabilities and good

thermal and mechanical properties • Highest operating ambient temperature up

to 70°C Safety • Its unique safety feature electrically

disconnects the capacitors safely at the end of their useful life.

• The disconnectors are installed on each phase which makes the capacitors very safe in addition to its protective steel enclosure

A safe, reliable and high performance solution for power factor correction in severe operating conditions.

Detuned reactors     The detuned reactors (DR) are designed to protect the capacitors by preventing amplification of the harmonics present on the network.

Operating conditions

 ● Use: indoor ● Storage temperature: - 40°C, + 60°C ● Relative humidity in operation: 20-80% ● Saline mist withstand: 250 hours ● Operating temperature / Altitude: ≤1000 m: Min = 0°C, Max=55°C, highest average over 1 year = 40°C,

24 hours = 50°C ≤2000m: Min = 0°C, Max = 50°C, highest average over 1 year = 35°C,

24hours = 45°C  Installation guidelines ● Forced ventilation required ● Vertical detuned reactor winding for better heat dissipation ● Electrical connection: ○ to a screw terminal block for 6.25 and 12.5 kvar detuned reactors ○ to a drilled pad for 25, 50 and 100 kvar detuned reactors As the detuned reactor is fitted with thermal protection, the normally

closed dry contact must be used to disconnect the step in the event of overheating.

Contactors  Special contactors LC1 D•K are designed for switching 3-phase, single or multiple-step capacitor banks. They conform to standards IEC 60070 and 60831, NFC 54-100, VDE 0560, UL and CSA. These contactors are fitted with a block of early make poles and damping resistors, limiting the value of the current on closing to 60 IS max. This current limitation increases the life of all the components of the installation, in particular that of the fuses and capacitors.
