Abstract: This guide applies to the use of 50 Hz and 60 Hz shunt power capacitors rated 2400 Vac and above, and assemblies of such capacitors. Included are guidelines for the application, protection, and ratings of equipment for the improved safety and reliability in the utilization of shunt power capacitors.
Subclauses 4.1.1 through 4.1.5 describe each of these benefits in more detail. Applying shunt capacitors to a system results in a voltage rise. This voltage rise is caused by the flow of a capacitor current (or the reduction of inductive current) through the inductive reactance of the system from the point of installation back to the generation.
Shunt power capacitors are frequently used to improve the power factor of circuits or industrial power systems with a large induction motor load since the power factor of large motors running at full load ranges from 0.60 to 0.95 lagging depending upon motor design. Under-loaded or lightly loaded motors operate at significantly lower power factors.
This introduction is not part of IEEE Std 1036-2020, IEEE Guide for the Application of Shunt Power Capacitors. This application guide is widely recognized as a useful guide, and it needs to be revised in order to continue its functional life as an active standard.
The transient inrush/discharge capability of the capacitors and the switching device should be considered. The energization of a shunt power capacitor bank may subject other system equipment to excessive phase-to-phase overvoltages, especially delta-connected transformers [B16].
