Introduction   Harmonics in welding processes refer to the presence of unwanted electrical frequencies that can negatively impact the welding operation. These harmonics are generated due to various factors within the welding equipment and power distribution systems. Understanding and managing harmonics in welding are crucial for ensuring weld quality, prolonging equipment life, and promoting a […]

A transformer’s primary and secondary windings have resistance and reactance, collectively referred to as impedance. The impedance opposes the flow of current when the transformer is connected to an AC power supply, causing a voltage drop across the windings. When an AC voltage is applied to the primary winding, it generates a magnetic flux. However,

Switchgear panels are used to control, protect and isolate electrical equipment, and high temperatures inside these panels can indicate a fault or failure. During the functioning stage, overheating conditions in electrical switchboards can occur due to some reasons such as overloaded circuits, unbalanced loads, and loose connections, which can reduce the lifespan of equipment and

The importance of design software in the switchboard industry   The use of software in the switchboard industry has a profound impact on improving safety, performance, and productivity. Here’s a brief overview of how software contributes to these areas: Safety: Software enhances safety in electrical systems through various mechanisms: Design Validation: Software tools enable designers

Ensuring Mechanical Impact Protection for Electrical Switchboards   Introduction:   Electrical switchboards are vital components of electrical systems, serving as the nerve center for power distribution. Ensuring their safety and reliability is of paramount importance in various applications. One crucial aspect that contributes to their resilience is the IK test. In this article, we will

If we consider a facility where considerable reactive load variations are taking place, capacitor banks connected to that installation has to follow up a dynamic operation with its steps since it has to respond to the dynamic reactive load variation very fast and provide the required KVAR to the system to maintain its power factor

Do the harmonics in your distribution system is a potential threat for your capacitor bank? Yes. When a capacitor bank is installed in a harmonic rich environment, they create a low impedance path and magnify the magnitude of current and voltage harmonics in a system resulting in parallel resonant effect. With this resonant phenomena, the

As the name suggests, Surge Protective Devices are used to protect the Electrical Installations from transient over voltages what we called as voltage surges. These transient over voltages are defined as electrical surges lasts for short duration occurred due to sudden release of energy which is previously stored or induced either naturally occurring or man-made.

There is a norm that since capacitor banks are static type electrical equipment, regular maintenance is not required. But capacitors need to be monitored and maintained regularly. The unawareness and the negligence of the users may leads to reduce the life expectancy or failures of the capacitors which would cause an ultimate loss for your
