This course focuses on the analytical and design aspects of improving the power factor in all electricity networks and how to apply practical examples to give you the skill side in your design. Through hands-on experience in testing capacitor plates, I provide you with a desalination plant that I have tested and identified malfunctions.

In addition to the design of capacitor plates that need to be placed on electrical distribution transformers and network elements that operate at a voltage of 22 / 0.4 kV and the extent to which the technical losses are reduced by the power factor.

It would seem that power consumption is increasing by the day, mainly due to the rising scales of production and constant demands from the general consumer. But, the main issue remains that resources are still limited.

With all these factors at play, it becomes greatly important to address how to properly address and bring the levels of consumption down. But, the issue of the problem is such a widespread one that addressing it on a personal or individual level would need to be embedding all of it into the system itself.

Capacitor Panels offer an unparalleled solution to this problem. As you probably already know capacitors are repositories of electric charge, but taking them in a cluster and adding relays, circuit breakers, etc. can do wonders in power correction.

How do capacitors panels help in power correction?

Power factor correction is all about increasing the power factor from a supply. If you’re confused by the statement, don’t be, as it specifically involves the prevention of effective loss in power, and ensures that you only get the amount that you actually need.

Capacitor Panels are special devices made to this end itself, as it verily increases the power factor correction by a large magnitude. Normally the electric load running all around a facility or residence is reactive in nature and can prevent in great losses as pointed to before.

In the past, most companies intimated their consumers about the importance of capacitors in power factoring. But, they would need to adjust the capacitor to an optimum level with respect to rating across an inductive load.

Setting the value at a specifically lower level can lead to the rise of inductive power factor. Conversely, setting high means that the power factor is turned to capacitive.

Capacitor Panel, however, can become greatly effective as they set the values by themselves automatically, to specify the power factor value to an ideal unit.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have access to the course materials?

You can view and review the lecture materials indefinitely, like an on-demand channel.

Can I take my courses with me wherever I go?

Definitely! If you have an internet connection, courses on Udemy are available on any device at any time. If you don’t have an internet connection, some instructors also let their students download course lectures. That’s up to the instructor though, so make sure you get on their good side!
