Industrial facilities are a source of major disturbance to power systems due to more and more large power loads being installed that, apart from their good functional properties, are characterised by negative impact on the quality of power.
The adverse impact of non-linear loads on a power system can be mitigated by means of compensation equipment like fixed capacitor (FC), thyristor controlled reactor (TCR) - FC/TCR.
The purpose of an FC/TCR compensator is compensation of the fundamental component reactive power and filtering selected current harmonics.
In this new issue of the Guide for Electrical Design Engineers, you will learn a step by step approach to size the FC/TCR compensator
