In this section, we delve into a practical case study involving the selection and calculation of a capacitor bank situated within a 132 by 11 KV substation. The primary objective of this capacitor bank is to enhance the power factor of a factory.
The substation and distribution capacitor banks should be inspected and electrical measurements be made periodically. The frequency of the inspection should be determined by local conditions such as environmental factors and type of controller used to switch the capacitors on and off. 7. Visual Inspections
Clearance and Grounding After a capacitor bank is de-energized, there will be residual charges in the units. Therefore, wait at least 5 min before approaching it to allow sufficient time for the internal discharge resistors in each capacitor unit to dissipate the stored energy.
Also, measure and verify if the supply voltage, phase currents, and the kVAR of the capacitor bank are within the allowed limits. Approximately 8 h after energization, conduct a visual inspection of the bank for blown fuses, bulged units, and proper balance in the currents.
Another mode of failure in the capacitor bank is leaking due to the failure of the cans. When handling the leaking fluid, avoid contact with the skin and take measures to prevent entry into sensitive areas such as eyes. Handling and disposal of capacitor insulating fluid should comply with state, federal, and local regulations.
