When excessive amounts of reactive power compensation (PF Correction) is applied to terminals of induction motor, it can result in self excitation and over voltage
This paper compares concentrated and distributed reactive power compensation to improve the power factor at the point of common connection (PCC) of an industrial electrical system (IES) with harmonics. The electrical system under study has a low power factor, voltage variation, and harmonics caused by motors operating at low loads and powered by variable
In practice, it is extremely inadvisable to install a capacitor bank without an accurate power analysis (calculated or simulated using software) or without preliminary measurements. Under-compensation will not provide the expected saving on the power consumption, while over-compensation will lead to probable overvoltages and
Key learnings: Capacitor Bank Definition: A capacitor bank is a collection of multiple capacitors used to store electrical energy and enhance the functionality of electrical power systems.; Power Factor Correction: Power
Issues: Incorrect sizing or placement of power factor correction capacitors can result in overcompensation or undercompensation, causing voltage instability and additional losses. Integration with Renewable Energy Sources
In this paper, the load variation, the three-phase asymmetry and the capacity attenuation of capacitors are considered, and the state evaluation and three-phase capacity
Fixed capacitors means that you may have to pick certain discrete values so you can decide to leave the load as somewhat inductive (undercompensated) or capacitive (overcompensated). If the load inductance varies during operation then again you may have to pick some intermediate value and the cancellation may be fairly imperfect.

What is overcompensation? Although The concept of overcompensation had already been used by Sigmund Freud it was Alfred Adler, the founder of the school of individual psychology, who introduced this term in his theory in
Objective of compensation is to achieve stable operation when negative feedback is applied around the op amp. Miller - Use of a capacitor feeding back around a high-gain, inverting stage. Miller capacitor only. Miller capacitor with an unity-gain buffer to block the forward path through the compensation capacitor. Can eliminate the RHP zero.

Shunt capacitors are used more frequently in power distribution systems than any other electrical compensation device. They are used mostly for voltage regulation and power factor correction. Shunt reactor compensation is usually required under conditions that are opposite of those requiring shunt capacitor compensation.

Overcompensation occurs when the trim capacity is too high. In this case, the rising edge shoots above the target value. The falling edge goes below the zero level, before the the curve slowly approaches the zero line. Correct compensation. Correct probe compensation. The probe head is correctly compensated if the square wave oscillation at the oscilloscope input has clean edges

Series compensation is a cost-efficient way to decrease the line reactance and improve the system stability and increase the transfer capacity for long transmission lines. Traditionally, the maximum degree of compensation has been around 80 %. The necessity to connect renewable electricity sources (e.g. wind and solar power stations) is a driver for installing new substations
Medium voltage shunt capacitor banks (SCBs) are widely used for improving voltage profile and providing reactive power in electrical networks. Transient oscillations caused by SCBs, e.g., switching and self-excitation phenomena, may damage sensitive equipment in electrical networks.

When excessive amounts of reactive power compensation (PF Correction) is applied to terminals of induction motor, it can result in self excitation and over voltage condition during motor switch off. The recommended practice is to size the capacitor to around 80% of the reactive power demand at no load condition.
The recommended practice is to size the capacitor to around 80% of the reactive power demand at no load condition. Overcompensation of motors is often is not intentional and usually happens when motors are relocated to a new starter location or when swapping motors with different magnetizing characteristics.
This article will shed some light on how adding capacitors gives the distribution system the necessary reactive power to return the power factor to the required level. Capacitors act as a source of reactive energy, which accordingly reduces the reactive power that the energy source must supply. The power factor of the system is therefore improved.
Objective of compensation is to achieve stable operation when negative feedback is applied around the op amp. Miller - Use of a capacitor feeding back around a high-gain, inverting stage. Miller capacitor only Miller capacitor with an unity-gain buffer to block the forward path through the compensation capacitor. Can eliminate the RHP zero.
Under-compensation will not provide the expected saving on the power consumption, while over-compensation will lead to probable overvoltages and resonance in relation to the supply. Remember that there is an increased risk of malfunctions in low-power installations or those with distorting loads (harmonics).
If the power factor correction capacitor is sized higher than the recommended value, then there a possibility that the motor magnetizing inductance and the power factor capacitors form a resonant circuit as the motor is switched off and is slowing down.
Over-compensation also tends to increase the voltage applied to the installation. It must be avoided. It is generally considered that it should not exceed 1.15 times the power to be compensated. The use of power factor controllers and step capacitor banks avoids problems of overcompensation. Figure 6 – Over-compensation currents
