Mobile capacitor bank

The mobile capacitor banks is a packaged factory assembled and tested reactive compensation system with modular fixed or switched capacitor steps, which automatically compensate an individual load or the network to maintain a preset level of power factor. The capacitor bank is mounted on a trailer and can be moved from one substation to another.

2.1 Switching-in capacitor banks Capacitor bank switching is often affected by overvoltages and transient overcurrents. The worst case occurs if a capacitor bank is switched-in when other banks are already connected (so-called back-to-back switching). This is because the amplitude and frequency of the inrush current can be very high.
