Power factor is a measure of how efficiently an AC (alternating current) power system uses the supplied power. It is defined as the ratio of real power (P) to apparent power (S), where the real power is the power that performs useful work in the load, and apparent power is the product of voltage (V) and current(I) in the.

AI Customer ServiceEN 61921:2005 describes the general requirements for the capacitor bank. The most important of them are listed below: Access to the particular elements within the capacitor
AI Customer ServiceThus, the size of capacitor banks can be 25, 50, 75 etc., and in this stage, fixed integer sizes are considered for capacitor banks to determine the optimal locations. To calculate the lifecycle cost of capacitors, the equivalent size of capacitors (namely $Size ( n )$ ) is considered to better adapt to the next stage.
To improve the complexity, first, the locations for installing capacitors are determined in the first stage. Then, the optimal base sizes of capacitor banks are optimized in the second stage. The size of each capacitor bank is its base size multiplied by the switching step (as a coefficient from 0 to 10).
Since the detuning factor for the project was given as p=7%, one knows that the capacitor bank needs to be equipped with reactors. For this reason, some calculations have to be performed, in order to fit the power of the capacitors and its rated voltage taking into account reactive power of a detuning reactors.
EN 61921:2005 describes the general requirements for the capacitor bank. The most important of them are listed below: Index of protection depends of the place of the installation of a capacitor bank. If the capacitor bank is to be placed in the same place as the main switchgear or utility room next to it, IP 20 is enough.
The base sizes of the capacitor banks are different and are obtained based on minimizing the cost function. In this study, the costs of unit energy loss, installation, O&M, and purchasing costs are considered $0.06/kWh, $1000, $600/year, and $3/kVar, respectively.
The basic formula for calculating the size of a series capacitor bank is: C = 1/ (2πfX) Where, C is the capacitance in farads (F) f is the frequency in hertz (Hz) X is the reactance in ohms (Ω)
