6 FAQs about [Capacitor cable selection]

How to choose a capacitor voltage rating?

Hence it is recommended that the capacitor voltage rating be chosen at the closest standard voltage rating of 600V. It is also preferred that the type of capacitor chosen is one which has a reasonably larger overcurrent capability as well. Consider an additional overvoltage factor of 20% towards system voltage variation and harmonic loading.

Do I need a medium voltage cable for a pad mounted capacitor?

Some pad mounted capacitor and harmonic filter banks may not require medium voltage cable if they are supplied with a bushing entry option. For these banks, bare, or 600 volt conductor may be used.

How to determine PF of a capacitor bank?

Determine the necessary effec tive power (kvar) of the capacitor bank in order to obtain the desired PF. way that the sensibility of the bank is around 15–20% of the total avail-able power. It’s not useful to have a more sensitive bank that reacts with high average PF. 25 kvar.

How much ampacity should a capacitor conductor be?

NEC code article 460 stated that “The ampacity of capacitor circuit conductors shall not be less than 135 percent of the rated current of the capacitor” this means that: Some manufacturers recommend that the Power conductors must be oversize to carry continuous current of at least 1.5 times the rated capacitor current at a temperature of 50˚C

What is the power factor of a capacitor?

1 1. 1.2 1.5 1.6 1.7 2.1 2.3 5 5.9 2.5 2.6 2.9 6 7.9 3.2 3.5 8 10.9 4.2 4.6 5.3 5.8 6.3 6.9 7.5 8.0 8.6 The capacitor output should be approx. 90% of the apparent power of the motor when idle. This means a power factor of 0.9 at full load and 0.95...0.98 during idling.

How do you connect a capacitor bank to a power system?

Medium and high voltage pad mounted capacitor banks are most commonly connected to the power system by insulated cable. For 2400 volt and 4160 volt systems, this cable can be either shielded or non-shielded.
