Detuned reactor capacitor bank.
Choosing capacitors and detuned reactors if any.
Detuned reactor detuned reactors or harmonic filter reactors are used in power factor correction panels in series with capacitors to avoid resonance due to presence of harmonic currents of various frequencies.
Formula 1 calculation of capacitor impedance if we look to the impedance equation of the capacitor it is seen that the capacitor impedance decreases with the increase of the frequency.
Power factor capacitors and detuned filters.
Having understand what reactor is and the various types available it is crucial to know why the series type is used in capacitor bank.
For a multi step banks in close proximity to each other series reactors will be part of each separate bank for the purpose of limiting inrush current during back to back switching.

But capacitors need a series reactor to limit the starting inrush current.

2 x phmkp 440 3 28 1 note 1 for filter circuits the capacitor rated voltage has always to be chosen higher than the supply voltage.
7 tests to be done after production of the bank at the end of the manufacturing process.
By using these types of detuned reactors it is possible to avoid fol lowing negative effects on system overcurrent during switching on the capacitor banks overload of capacitor banks because of the harmonic resonance.
Capacitor is widely used in industry to improve power factor.
Nowadays installations with a high con.
Fundamental voltage increased by the reactor and harmonics supply voltage 400 v rated voltage 1 of capacitor v.
Detuned filter reactors detuned filter reactors are used in series with capacitor banks in power factor correction units.
Required rated output of the capacitors.
Automatic capacitor banks with detuned filters r 5 6 r5 6 3 automatic capacitor banks with detuned filters r 5 6 the fr fre capacitor banks with de tuned filters have been designed for power compensation purposes in net works with a high content of harmonics and where there is a risk of resonance.
The harmonic filter detuned is to limit the flow of harmonic current from non linear loads on the reactor to the fixed impedance loads eg capacitor.
