POWER FACTOR CORRECTION

Our catalogs, divided into low and medium voltage ranges, contain all information about the respective product line: capacitors and other key components for power factor correction from one source. Alternatively, you can also check our product database for even more existing items or send us a specific request with your application data. Many ways lead to the goal.

  • ZVEI Improving Power Quality in Electrical Networks

    In industrial and public grids, the growing variety of power electronic energy converters with their highly non-linear current characteristics will increasingly compromise power quality, especially in the low- and medium-voltage distribution grids. This guide by the ZVEI Power Capacitors Division explains how power quality is influenced and what the causes and effects are, and presents technical approaches to reduce the respective causes of a negative influence on power quality.
