5400 kVAR at 13.8 kV delivers a tangible business impact by stabilizing the voltage profile and lowering reactive charges. In practice, this enables tighter control of power factor across large motors and transformers, supporting compliance with utility tariffs and energy-management targets. Designed for a 15 kV Class standard design, the unit supports safe, scalable integration with existing MV switchgear, reducing installation risk and simplifying field wiring. The unfiltered design offers a cost-effective solution for systems where harmonic content and switching transients are managed through system coordination and proper protection schemes. With a footprint of 106 in length, 99 in height, and 65 in width, and weighing 10,000 lb, planning for installation, crane access, and space utilization becomes straightforward for retrofit and new builds. CSA certification (Canada Only) anchors regulatory compliance and procurement confidence within Canadian projects, backed by Eaton's service network for ongoing support and maintenance.

FAQs
Plan for a 106 in L x 99 in H x 65 in W footprint with a 10,000 lb weight. Ensure crane access and appropriate clearance around the unit, allow for connection to 13.8 kV distribution gear, and verify compatibility with existing MV switchgear. Confirm CSA documentation is on hand for Canadian projects and coordinate with Eaton support during commissioning.
The unit supports 5400 kVAR at 13,800 V and 60 Hz, designed as an unfiltered capacitor bank in a 15 kV Class standard design. It is intended for reactive power management in medium-voltage networks and integrates with standard MV distribution architectures to improve power factor and reduce losses.
Ideal for large industrial facilities, substations, and mining or metal-processing plants with substantial MV distributions. It's well-suited for scenarios requiring robust VAR support at 13.8 kV, where improving power factor yields utility-cost savings and voltage stability across heavy motor loads.
The unit is CSA Certified (Canada Only), supporting regulatory compliance for Canadian projects. Confirm accompanying safety and installation documentation, and leverage Eatonās regional support network for site-specific certification alignment and after-sales service.
Expect improved power factor, reduced reactive charges, and lower IĀ²R losses, contributing to energy-cost savings and enhanced equipment uptime. Regular inspections of connections, cabinet integrity, and protective relays, along with adherence to Eaton service guidance, maximize long-term reliability and return on investment.
