Under such a condition, voltage magnification transients can be experienced at the distribution level capacitor (Figure 5). This could lead to severe overvoltages, which could ultimately lead to the failure of the capacitor bank. When a capacitor bank is added at the transmission level, it is important to rule out or mitigate any interaction with local distribution banks. (file SK.pl4; x-var t
Capacitor switching is one of the most important sources of generating transient overvoltage and inrush current of electrical power system. Energizing transient may reduce the life span of capacitor banks, damage of power system equipment and insulation failure.

Reminder of capacitor transient conditions In Low Voltage industrial installations, capacitors are mainly used for reactive energy correction (raising the power factor). When these capacitors are energized, overcurrents of high amplitude (up to 180 In) and high frequencies (3 to 15 kHz) occur during the transient period (1 to 2 ms). The amplitude of these current peaks, also known as

When the switch closes to insert the second capacitor bank, the inrush current affects mainly the local parallel capacitor bank circuits and bus voltage.
