Capacitors are used in many circuits for different purposes, so we''re going to learn some basic capacitor calculations for DC circuits. In the paragraph: "If we needed to store a charge of say 0.0002 coulombs then we just divide this by the voltage, in this case 12V to see we need 0.0024 Farads or 2,400uF microfarads."
Capacitor bank can hold dangerous voltage after disconnecting from power system unless discharging devices are connected to the capacitor terminals. IEEE Std. 18 standard requires capacitors be equipped with internal discharge devices to reduce residual voltage to below 50V in less than 1 minute for 600VAC and within 5 minutes for > 600V rms …
The paper presents the results from a study of a capacitor bank with detuned reactor for power factor correction in a three-phase low voltage network. The effect of the high harmonics in the network, as well as the influence of the inductance of the detuned reactor on the operational parameters of the three-phase capacitor bank have been studied by means of a computer …

Every capacitor or capacitor tap is connected in series to an inductance (reactor), in contrast to "normal" unprotected compensation. If the resonant frequency of the series resonant circuit formed in this way ( capacitors and Inductor) deviates (is lower) by more than 10% from the frequency of the nearest harmonic, then one speaks of a detuned resonator …
