The impact of current harmonics on the power factor of a low voltage distribution system – A Case Study

In modern factories, capacitor banks are not the most effective solution for Power factor improvement !!   This study was carried out to identify and rectify, what initially seemed to be a malfunction of a powerfactor correction capacitor panel (PFCCP) (Power factor improvement). However during the study it was identified that the problem was not […]

Temperature Rise in Electrical panel boards

METHOD TO ASSESS THE TEMPERATURE RISE INSIDE A LOW VOLTAGE PANEL BOARD    INTRODUCTION In order to assess the temperature rise of the air inside the low voltage panel board, a method is proposed in IEC 60890 ( A method of temperature-rise assessment by extrapolation for partially type-tested assemblies ( PTTA ) of low-voltage switch

Minimizing the Effects of Electrical Arc Fault in an Installation

Abstract: This paper presents an overview of the electric arc faults which can be originated in electrical devices such as electrical panel boards. There are many codes and standards which are used to define the constraints that an installation should maintained to minimize the severity, frequency and harmfulness of an electrical arc fault. For an
