Each capacitor unit or bank shall be provided with a directly connected discharge device. The discharge device shall reduce the residual voltage from the crest value of the rated value UN to 50 V or less within 1 min, after the capacitor is disconnected from the source of supply.
3. DO NOT ground the capacitor bank immediately after the bank has been disconnected from the system. For capacitor banks with capacitor units containing discharge resistors designed to discharge the capacitor unit from peak rated voltage to less than 50 V in five minutes, allow five minutes before grounding.

Capacitor banks are collections of capacitors that are used to store electrical energy and improve the efficiency of power systems. They play a crucial role in electrical networks by helping to manage the reactive power, improving voltage stability, and reducing losses. By doing this, they enable the power system to operate more efficiently and reliably.

Configuration of Capacitor bank. A delta-connected bank of capacitors is usually applied to voltage classes of 2400 volts or less. In a three-phase system, to supply the same reactive power, the star connection requires a capacitor with a capacitance three times higher than the delta connected capacitor. In addition, the capacitor with the star connection results to
1. Capacitor Bank: The capacitor bank is the main component of a capacitive discharge welder. It consists of multiple capacitors connected in parallel to store and discharge electrical energy. The capacitance value and voltage rating of the capacitors determine the energy storage capacity of the capacitor bank. 2. Power Supply:

The energy from the capacitor banks is discharged by driving the transformers into saturation after disconnection from the grid. To investigate this, simulations were conducted in PSCAD to identify the relationship between the size of the transformer, the size of discharge resistor and the time taken for the capacitor bank to discharge.
The discharge of capacitor banks at substations is necessary before their connection to the grid can occur. This study investigates the use of delta-connected transformers for capacitor discharge.

This paper has shown the relationship between transformer size, discharge resistor size and the discharge time of the capacitor banks. The optimal results for the capacitor bank and transformer combination have been listed, with a variety of economical and effective solutions produced.
It is preferred to connect discharged capacitor banks to the network because the voltage difference will be equal to the voltage of the system or less. In contrast, if a charged capacitor bank is connected at the wrong time instant, there can be a voltage differential of up to two times the nominal system voltage [ 1 ].
The discharge of capacitor banks at substations is necessary before their connection to the grid can occur. This study investigates the use of delta-connected transformers for capacitor discharge.
As these results are obtained for the discharge of a 10 MVAR capacitor bank, the use of three 1 MVA transformers for its discharge may be too expensive. If this is the case, there are still a range of transformer values that can be used where discharge time will remain under 0.5 s, provided the correct value for the discharge resistor is chosen.
