Case study on manufacture of panel and capacitor bank

Abstract

As we know that power system load is increasing day by day as the industrial and commercial load are increasing . In modern power system most of the load is inductive load to compensate this inductive load capacitive load is must require . Inductive load is consume reactive power in the system which affect generation of plant the main application of apfc panel is it has automatic capacitor which connected according to requirement of reactive power. Control Panel as the name implies, are used to provide proper control of operations of any electrical equipment’s. These are also used to protect the electrical. Equipment’s from being damaged due to various faults like short circuit, overload and Earth leakage etc. Electrical control panels and capacitor bank are important system or equipment in electrical industries also in other industries so we going to do a case study on that. They are found in factories to monitor and control machines or production lines and in places such as nuclear power plants, ships, and aircraft and mainframe computers. protection is mainly provided through panels. A panel is used for controlling and giving the indication about the faults in system or any machines etc. It also disconnect the system from supply of there is a fault. Different panels are used for different location, scheme of protection, according to consumer demand etc. In which some of the panels are RTCC, MBox, TJB, etc. Here we deal with different methods or steps that are involved in dedication of our group members. Capacitor banks are applied in power systems to provide reactive power. The reactive power results in lower current in lines upstream of the bank improving system voltage and power factor and reducing line losses. Capacitor banks can be configured as filters for harmonic reduction. The protection systems for capacitor banks include fuses, surge arresters, and protective relays. This paper focuses on protective relaying philosophies of grounded and ungrounded Y-connected shunt capacitor banks, which are commonly applied on industrial and utility power systems.
