FAQs
Yes. The model is designed for medium-voltage distribution at 13.8 kV and uses a standard catalog number for streamlined integration with existing MV switchgear. Confirm panel ratings, space, and clearance before installation, and work with an experienced electrical contractor to ensure proper wiring, grounding, and safety interlocks in accordance with IEEE Std. 18 guidelines.
Key specs include a 1750 kVAR rating, 13,800 V voltage rating, 60 Hz frequency, and a 4.2 H detuned filter. The unit adheres to IEEE Std. 18 and carries CSA Canada certification. These specifications support reliable reactive power compensation, improved power factor, and harmonic mitigation in typical MV networks.
Industries with heavy inductive loads and motor-driven processes—such as metals, chemical processing, mining, and large-scale manufacturing—benefit most. The 1750 kVAR capacity provides substantial VAR support, while the detuned filter mitigates harmonics, protecting transformers and downstream equipment in demanding MV environments.
This capacitor bank complies with IEEE Std. 18 for medium-voltage capacitor banks and carries CSA Canada certification. These certifications support regulatory alignment, supplier qualification, and multi-site procurement consistency, which can simplify audits and vendor governance for multinational facilities.
By improving voltage regulation and reducing reactive power losses, the bank lowers energy waste and can defer capital investments in downstream equipment. The detuned filter reduces harmonic stress, contributing to longer transformer life and reduced maintenance intervals. Combined with IEEE/CANADA compliance, the solution offers predictable ROI through reliability and energy savings in MV networks.
