Advantages of capacitor compensation technology
After understanding the principles of
reactive power compensators, let's explore in detail the advantages of capacitor compensation technology, which makes it an ideal choice for the Dynamic Compensation Device in power systems.
1. Improve power factor
Capacitors can provide leading reactive power, complementing the inductive loads in the power grid, thereby improving the power factor of the system. This not only reduces the reactive power loss of the power grid, but also reduces the voltage drop of the line and improves the voltage quality.
2. Reduce line losses
Capacitor compensation technology can reduce the reactive power flow in the power grid, thereby reducing line losses. This is particularly critical for long-distance transmission lines because it can significantly reduce transmission losses and improve transmission efficiency.
3. Prevent low-load overcompensation and insufficient reactive power:
Under low-load conditions, overcompensation may cause excess reactive power in the power grid and even cause system instability.
reactive compensation technology can automatically adjust the compensation capacity according to the changes in load to avoid overcompensation, while ensuring that sufficient reactive power is provided during peak load hours to meet the needs of the power grid.
