let's learn something about 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 or kVA = kW2 + kVAr2 The Power Factor has been defined as the ratio of active power (kW) to apparent power (kVA). Power Factor = (kW) / (kVA). The objective of Reactive Energy management is improvement of Power Factor, or “Power Factor Correction”. This is typically achieved by producing reactive energy close to the consuming loads, through connection of capacitor banks to the network Ensure reliability and safety at installations :- + Quality and reliability • Continuity of service thanks to the high performance and long life expectancy of capacitors. • 100% testing in manufacturing plant. • Design and engineering with the highest international standards. + Safety: • Tested safety features integrated on each phase. • Over-pressure system for safe disconnection at the end of life. • All materials and components are free of PCB pollutants. + Efficiency and productivity • Product development including innovation in ergonomics and ease of installation and connection. • Specially designed components to save time on installation and maintenance. .. .. .. #panel #LTpanel #panelbuilder #PCC #electrical #Energy #panel #PCCpanel #Electeicalstudy

Learn the fundamentals of medium-voltage switchgear, including metal-clad, metal-enclosed, and compact switchgear, also known as metal-enclosed gas-insulated switchgear (MEGIS). For each type of switchgear, we cover key industry standards, safety features, and digital advancements that are transforming how switchgear is specified, installed, and maintained. What is MV switchgear? A centralized collection of circuit breakers, fuses, and switches designed to protect, control and isolate electrical equipment in systems between 1 kV and 38 kV. These systems are common in utility as well in medium to large sized commercial and industrial facilities. Follow along to learn IEEE standards, use cases, key features, protection options, and applications for each type. • Metal-clad: IEEE C37.20.2 • Metal-enclosed: IEEE C37.20.3 • Compact switchgear: IEEE C37.20.9 We also explain how advancements in technology and design have made way for arc-resistant switchgear. This switchgear is built to contain and redirect arc flash energy away from operators. Certified under IEEE C37.20.7. The most common type is Type 2B, which protects personnel even with the low-voltage compartment door open. Additional innovations that enable remote control, data collection, and real-time diagnostics include: • Arc flash relays • Thermal monitoring • Remote racking • Partial discharge monitoring Visit https://lnkd.in/ePvmxVu6 to learn how to specify and install medium-voltage switchgear.

Transformer Tap Changer A tap changer is a key mechanism in transformers that adjusts the turns ratio to either increase or decrease voltage. This ensures stable and reliable power delivery across the grid. 🔹 What is a Tap Changer? A device that changes the effective number of turns in the transformer winding, thereby controlling the output voltage without altering the system frequency. 🔹 Types of Tap Changers 1️⃣ Off-Load Tap Changer (OLTC) Can be operated only when the transformer is switched off / de-energized Very simple and economical design Suitable for infrequent voltage adjustments (example: seasonal load changes) Common in distribution transformers where frequent regulation is not required 2️⃣ On-Load Tap Changer (ULTC / OLTC) Can operate while the transformer is energized and supplying power Uses a diverter switch to change taps without interrupting supply More complex and costly compared to off-load type Common in power transformers where continuous and precise voltage control is essential 🔹 How Tap Changer Works By shifting the tap position on the winding, the turns ratio changes. This directly controls the output voltage, keeping it within the required limits. 🔹 Why Tap Changer is Important ✅ Maintains stable voltage under varying load conditions ✅ Reduces power losses and improves efficiency ✅ Enhances overall system reliability ✅ Essential for long-distance power transmission Power Projects Pruthivi Raj Kartheeswaran A U SRIRAM PRASATH P Amit N Rathod NARENDRA MEESALA #Transformers #PowerSystems #ElectricalEngineering #EnergyEfficiency #GridReliability #Electricity
