The Challenge: Power Factor Correction at High-Voltage Transformer Sides

When utility companies calculate electricity bills, they often assess power consumption and power factor at the high-voltage side of transformers (e.g., 11kV). However, traditional power factor correction methods primarily focus on the low-voltage side. Enjoypowers recognized this gap and engineered an ingenious solution.

The Basics

SVG Rating: Enjoypowers’ SVG operates at a rated voltage of 400Vac.
High-Voltage CT Installation: The magic lies in installing the SVG’s current transformers (CTs) on the high-voltage side of the transformer. By monitoring the high-voltage current, we achieve low-voltage compensation for power factor.

How It Works

High-Voltage Current Sensing: The CTs on the high-voltage side continuously measure the current flowing through the transformer.
Real-Time Compensation: Enjoypowers’ SVG dynamically adjusts reactive power compensation based on the sensed current. It ensures that the power factor remains close to unity (1.0).
Low-Voltage Benefits: The compensation extends downstream to the low-voltage side, where it significantly improves power factor and reduces energy losses.How to Achieve High-Voltage Side Compensation
Notice:For Delta/Wye transformers, there is a phase angle difference of 30° between the high-voltage side and the low-voltage side. Therefore, it is necessary to set the phase angle of the SVG output current to 30°.Additionally, the CT ratio must also consider the ratio of high-voltage side to low-voltage side voltages. For instance, if the CT turns ratio is 100:5 and the transformer voltage ratio is 10:0.4, then the CT turns ratio set in the SVG should be 100 * 10/0.4:5 = 2500:5.
