Automatic Power Factor Control Panel

Share  | 

Automatic power factor control panels (APFCP) are chiefly designed to save electrical power and energy. Power factor of an electrical installation is defined as the efficiency of utilization of electric power. It is measured as the ratio of real power to apparent power. APFCP is also used to monitor the power factor of electrical systems.

Product Description

• APFCP consists of a power factor controller that can accurately monitor reactive power in power systems in order to save energy.

• They are provided with capacitors along with built-in protective devices to cut off power in case there is excess power in the system.

• Capacitors are provided with series reactors to minimize harmonic current that may alter system voltage and current.

• Almost all types of circuits are equipped with independent fuses.

• The panel is usually made of rust proof steel materials.

Uses & Applications
There are several uses of Automatic Power Factor Control Panel. To mention a few, its applications include:

• Electrical installations

• Windmills

• Analysing line voltage

• Monitoring current harmonics

• Process controllers

• Micro processors

• LT & HT factories
