Application Considerations
Capacitors
Sheet 1624
Capacitor Selection
There are two basic types of capacitor installations: individual capacitors on linear or sinusoidal loads, and banks of fixed or automatically switched capacitors at the feeder or substation.
Individual vs. Banked Installations
Advantages of individual capacitors at the load:
■
Complete control. Capacitors cannot cause problems on the line during light load conditions.
■
No need for separate switching. Motor always operates with capacitor.
■
Improved motor performance due to more efficient power utilization and reduced voltage drops.
■
Motors and capacitors can be easily relocated together.
■
Easier to select the right capacitor for the load.
■
Reduced line losses.
■
Increased system capacity.
Advantages of bank installations at the feeder or substation:
■
Lower cost per kvar.
■
Total plant power factor improved — reduces or eliminates all forms of kvar charges.
■
Automatic switching ensures exact amount of power factor correction, eliminates overcapacitance and resulting overvoltages.
Table 37.0-1. Summary of Advantages/Disadvantages of Individual, Fixed Banks, Automatic Banks, Combination
Selection Criteria
The selection of the type of capacitor installation will depend on advantages and disadvantages of each type and several plant variables, including load type, load size, load constancy, load capacity, motor starting methods and manner of utility billing.
Load Type
If a facility has many large motors, 50 hp and above, it is usually economical to install one capacitor per motor and switch the capacitor and motor together. If there are many small motors, 1/2 to 25 hp, motors can be grouped with one capacitor at a central point in the distribution system. Often, the best solution for plants with large and small motors is to use both types of capacitor installations.
Load Size
Facilities with large loads benefit from a combination of individual load, group load and banks of fixed and automatically-switched capacitor units. A small facility, on the other hand, may require only one capacitor at the control board.
Sometimes, only an isolated trouble spot requires power factor correction in applications such as welding machines, induction heaters or dc drives. If a particular feeder serving a low power factor load is corrected, it may raise overall plant power factor enough that additional capacitors are unnecessary.
Load Constancy
If a facility operates around-the-clock and has a constant load demand, fixed capacitors offer the greatest economy. If load is determined by eight-hour shifts five days a week, utilize switched units to decrease capacitance during times of reduced load.
Method Advantages Disadvantages
IndividualCapacitors
Most technically efficient, most flexible Higher installation and maintenance cost
Fixed Bank Most economical, fewer installations Less flexible, requires switches and/or circuit breakers
AutomaticBank
Best for variable loads, prevents overvoltages, low installation cost
Higher equipment cost
Combination Most practical for larger numbers of motors
Least flexible
Load Capacity
If feeders or transformers are over-loaded, or to add additional load to already loaded lines, correction must be applied at the load. If a facility has surplus amperage, capacitor banks can be installed at main feeders. If load varies a great deal, automatic switching is probably the answer.
Utility Billing
The severity of the local electric utility tariff for power factor will affect payback and ROI. In many areas, an optimally designed power factor correction system will pay for itself in less than two years.
National Electric Code Requirements for Capacitors
Nameplate kvar
: Tolerance +15, -0%.
Discharge Resistors
: Capacitors rated at 600 volts and less must reduce the charge to less than 50 volts within 1 minute of de-energization. Capacitors rated above 600 volts must reduce the charge within 5 minutes.
Continuous Operation
: Up to 135% rated (nameplate) kvar, including the effects of 110% rated voltage (121% kvar), 15% capacitance tolerance and harmonic voltages over the fundamental frequency (60 Hz).
Dielectric Strength Test:
Twice the rated ac voltage (or a dc voltage 4.3 times the ac rating for non-metallized systems).
Overcurrent Protection
: Fusing between 1.65 and 2.5 times rated current to protect case from rupture. Does not preclude NEC
�
requirement for overcurrent protection in all three ungrounded conductors.
Note:
When capacitor is connected to the load side of the motor overcurrent protection, fused disconnects or breaker protection is not required. Fuses are recom-mended for all other indoor applications.

Capacitor Switching Devices
Medium Voltage Capacitor Switching
Capacitance switching constitutes severe operating duty for a circuit breaker. At the time the breaker opens at near current zero the capacitor is fully charged. After interruption, when the alternating voltage on the source side of the breaker reaches its opposite maximum, the voltage that appears across the contacts of the open breaker is at least twice the normal peak line-to-neutral voltage of the circuit. If a breakdown occurs across the open contact the arc is re-established. Due to the circuit constants on the supply side of the breaker, the voltage across the open contact can reach three times the normal line-to-neutral voltage. After it is interrupted and with subse-quent alternation of the supply side voltage, the voltage across the open contact is even higher.
ANSI Standard C37.06 (indoor oilless circuit breakers) indicates the preferred ratings of Eaton’s Cutler-Hammer
�
Type VCP-W vacuum breaker. For capacitor switching careful attention should be paid to the notes accompa-nying the table. The definition of the terms are in ANSI Standard C37.04 Article 5.13 (for the latest edition). The application guide ANSI/IEEE Standard C37.012 covers the method of calculation of the quantities covered by C37.06 Standard.
Note that the definitions in C37.04 make the switching of two capacitors banks in close proximity to the switch-gear bus a back-to-back mode of switching. This classification requires a definite purpose circuit breaker (breakers specifically designed for capacitance switching).
We recommend that such application be referred to Eaton.
A breaker specified for capacitor switching should include as applicable:
1. Rated maximum voltage.
2. Rated frequency.
3. Rated open wire line charging switching current.
4. Rated isolated cable charging and shunt capacitor switching current.
5. Rated back-to-back cable charging and back-to-back capacitor switch-ing current.
6. Rated transient overvoltage factor.
7. Rated transient inrush current and its frequency.
8. Rated interrupting time.
9. Rated capacitive current switching life.
10. Grounding of system and capacitor bank.
Loadbreak interrupter switches
are permitted by ANSI/IEEE Standard C37.30 to switch capacitance but they must have tested ratings for the purpose. Refer to Cutler-Hammer Type MVS ratings.
Low Voltage Capacitor Switching
Circuit breakers and switches for use with a capacitor must have a current rating in excess of rated capacitor current to provide for overcurrent from overvoltages at fundamental frequency and harmonic currents. The following percent of the capacitor-rated current should be used as a general guideline:
Fused and unfused switches . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 165%
Molded case breaker or equivalent . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 150%

Contactors:Open type. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 135%
Enclosed type. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 150%
The NEC, Section 460-8(c)(4), requires the disconnecting means to be rated not less than 135% of the rated capacitor current (for 600 V and below). See
Page 37.0-4
for more information on
Low Voltage Capacitor Switching Devices.
Projects which anticipate requiring capacitor bank switching or fault interrupting should identify the breakers that must have capacitive current switching ratings on the equip-ment schedules and contract drawings used for the project. Manufacturer’s standard medium voltage breakers meeting ANSI C37.xx are not all rated for switching capacitive loads. Special breakers are usually available from vendors to comply with the ANSI C37.012 (Application Guide for Capacitor Current Switching) and other applicable ANSI standards. The use of capacitive current rated breakers can affect the medium voltage switchgear layout, thus early identification of these capacitive loads are critical to the design process.
For example, the standard 15 kV Eaton 150 VCP-W 500, 1200 ampere vacuum breaker does not have a capacitive current switching rating, however the 15 kV Eaton 150 VCP-W 25C, 1200 ampere vacuum breaker does have the following general purpose ratings:
■
25 ampere rms cable charging current switching.
■
Isolated shunt capacitor bank switching current ratings of 25 to 600 amperes.
■
Definite purpose back-to-back capacitor switch ratings required when two banks of capacitors are independently switched from the 15 kV switchgear bus.
The special breakers with these capacitive current ratings do not have UL labels, thus UL assembly ratings are not available.
Contact Eaton for more details on vacuum breaker and fused load interrupter switch products with capacitive switching current ratings at medium voltages.

Switching device ratings are based on percentage of capacitor-rated current as indicated (above). The interrupting rating of the switch must be selected to match the system fault current available at the point of capacitor application. Whenever a capacitor bank is purchased with less than the ultimate kvar capacity of the rack or enclosure, the switch rating should be selected based on the ultimate kvar capacity — not the initial installed capacity.

Installing Capacitors in aPlant Distribution System
At the Load
Since capacitors act as kvar genera-tors, the most efficient place to install them is directly at the motor, where kvar is consumed. Three options exist for installing capacitors at the motor. Use
Figures 37.0-1
–
37.0-7
, and the information below to determine which option is best for each motor.
Location A — Motor Side of Overload Relay
■
New motor installations in which overloads can be sized in accor-dance with reduced current draw.
■
Existing motors when no overload change is required.
Location B — Line Side of Overload Relay
■
Existing motors when overload rat-ing surpasses code (see Appendix for NEC code requirements).
Location C — Line Side of Starter
■
Motors that are jogged, plugged, reversed.
■
Multi-speed motors.
■
Starters with open transition and starters that disconnect/reconnect capacitor during cycle.
■
Motors that start frequently.
■
Motor loads with high inertia, where disconnecting the motor with the capacitor can turn the motor into a self-excited generator.
At the Service Feeder
When correcting entire plant loads, capacitor banks can be installed at the service entrance, if load conditions and transformer size permits. If the amount of correction is too large, some capacitors can be installed at individual motors or branch circuits.
When capacitors are connected to the bus, feeder, motor control center or switchboard, a disconnect and over-current protection must be provided.

Harmonic Considerations
A discussion of power system harmonics is incomplete without discussing the effects of power factor correction capacitors. In an industrial plant containing power factor correction capacitors, harmonic currents and voltages can be magnified considerably due to the interaction of the capacitors with the service transformer. This is referred to as
harmonic resonance or parallel resonance
. For a typical plant containing power factor correction capacitors, the res-onant frequency (frequency at which amplification occurs) normally falls in the vicinity of the 5th to the 13th harmonic. Since non-linear loads typically inject currents at the 5th, 7th, 11th and 13th harmonics, a resonant or near-resonant condition will often result if drives and capacitors are installed on the same system, producing the symptoms and problems outlined in the previous section.
Note:
Capacitors themselves do not cause harmonics, but only aggravate potential harmonic problems. Often, harmonic-related problems do not “show up” until capacitors are applied for power factor correction.
It is a common misconception that the problem of applying capacitors in harmonic environments is limited to problems caused for the capacitor itself — that the capacitor’s lower impedance at higher frequencies causes a current overload into the capacitor and, therefore, must be removed. How-ever, the capacitor/harmonics problem must be viewed from a power system standpoint. The capacitor-induced increase of harmonic voltages and currents on a plant’s system may be causing problems while the capacitor itself remains within its acceptable current rating.
Capacitor Banks and Transformers Can Cause Resonance
Capacitors and transformers can create dangerous reso-nance conditions when capacitor banks are installed at the service entrance. Under these conditions, harmonics pro-duced by non-linear devices can be amplified many fold.
Problematic amplification of harmonics becomes more likely as more kvar is added to a system which contains a significant amount of non-linear load.
An estimate of the resonant harmonic frequency is found by using the following formula:
If h is near the values of the major harmonics generated by a non-linear device — i.e., 3, 5, 7, 11 — then the resonance circuit will greatly increase harmonic distortion.
For example, if a plant has a 1,500 kVA transformer with a 5-1/2% impedance and the short-circuit rating of the utility is 48,000 kVA, then kVA
sys
would equal 17,391 kVA.
If 350 kvar of capacitors were used to improve power factor, h would be:
Because h falls right on the 7th harmonic, these capacitors could create a harmful resonance condition if non-linear devices were present in the factory. In this case the capacitors should be applied only as harmonic filtering assemblies.
Diagnosing a Potential Harmonics Related Problem
Negative symptoms of harmonics on plant equipment include blown fuses on capacitors, reduced motor life, false or spurious operations of fuses or circuit breakers, decreased life or increased noise in transformers or mis-operation of electronic or microprocessor controls. If one or more of these symptoms occurs with regularity, then the following steps should be taken.
1. If the plant contains power factor correction capacitors, the current into the capacitors should be measured using a ‘true rms’ current meter. If this value is higher than the capacitor’s rated current at the system voltage (by >5% or so), the presence of harmonic voltage distortion is likely.
2. Conduct a paper audit of the plant’s harmonic-producing loads and system configuration. This analysis starts with the gathering of kVA or horsepower data on all the major non-linear devices in the plant, all capacitors, and rating information on service entrance transformer(s). This data is analyzed to determine whether the conditions are present to create unfavorable levels of harmonics.
3. If the electrical distribution system is complex — e.g., multiple service entrances, distributed capacitors — or if the paper audit is incomplete or considered to be too burdensome, the most definitive way to determine whether harmonics are causing a problem is through an on-site plant audit. This audit involves an inspection of the electrical system layout and connected loads, as well as harmonic measurements taken at strategic locations. This data can then be assembled and analyzed to obtain a clear and concise understanding of the power system.

Eliminating HarmonicProblemsWhen power factor correction is required in the presence of non-linear loads, or the amount of harmonic distortion must be reduced to solve power quality problems or avoid penalties, the most reliable, lowest cost solution is often realized with the use of harmonic filters.
Passive and Switched Harmonic FiltersA shunt harmonic filter (see Figure 37.0-8) is, essentially, a power factor correction capacitor combined with a series iron core reactor. A filter provides power factor correction at the fundamental frequency and becomes an inductance (like a motor) at frequencies higher than its “tuning point.” Most harmonic filters are tuned below the 5th harmonic. Therefore, the filter provides an inductive impedance path to those currents at harmonic frequencies created by nearly all three-phase non-linear loads (5th, 7th, 11th, 13th, etc.). Since the filter is not capacitive at these frequencies, the plant electrical system can no longer resonate at these frequencies and can not magnify the harmonic voltages and currents.
A shunt harmonic filter therefore accomplishes three things:
1. Provides power factor correction.
2. Prevents harmonic overvoltages due to resonance.
3. Reduces voltage harmonic distor-tion and transformer harmonic loading at frequencies above its tuning point.
In some circumstances, a harmonic resonance condition may accrue gradually over time as capacitors and non-linear loads are installed in a plant. The replacement of such capaci-tors with harmonic filters in order to correct a problem may be prohibitively expensive. Custom-designed harmonic filters which are able to eliminate problems associated with resonance at any particular frequency while providing an extremely low amount of power factor correction capacitance. These low kvar filters are therefore able to provide the same amount of filtering capacity as a much larger conventional filter, but at a lower cost.
If the plant loads vary widely then a switched capacitor/filter bank is recommended.

Sheet 1631
Motor Power Factor CorrectionTables 37.0-3 and 37.0-4 contain sug-gested maximum capacitor ratings for induction motors switched with the capacitor. The data is general in nature and representative of general purpose induction motors of standard design. The preferable means to select capacitor ratings is based on the “maximum recommended kvar” information available from the motor manufacturer. If this is not possible or feasible, the tables can be used.
An important point to remember is that if the capacitor used with the motor is too large, self-excitation may cause a motor-damaging overvoltage when the motor and capacitor combi-nation is disconnected from the line. In addition, high transient torques capable of damaging the motor shaft or coupling can occur if the motor is reconnected to the line while rotating and still generating a voltage of self-excitation.
Definitionskvar — rating of the capacitor in reactive kilovolt-amperes. This value is approximately equal to the motor no-load magnetizing kilovars.
% AR — percent reduction in line current due to the capacitor. A capacitor located on the motor side of the overload relay reduces line current through the relay. Therefore, a different overload relay and/or setting may be necessary. The reduc-tion in line current may be determined by measuring line current with and without the capacitor or by calculation as follows:
If a capacitor is used with a lower kvar rating than listed in tables, the % AR can be calculated as follows:
The tables can also be used for other motor ratings as follows:
A. For standard 60 Hz motors operating at 50 Hz:
kvar = 1.7 – 1.4 of kvar listed% AR= 1.8 – 1.35 of % AR listed
B. For standard 50 Hz motors operating at 50 Hz:
kvar = 1.4 – 1.1 of kvar listed% AR= 1.4 – 1.05 of % AR listed
C. For standard 60 Hz wound-rotor motors:
kvar = 1.1 of kvar listed% AR= 1.05 of % AR listed
Note: For A, B, C, the larger multipliers apply for motors of higher speeds; i.e., 3600 rpm = 1.7 mult., 1800 rpm = 1.65 mult., etc.
To derate a capacitor used on a system voltage lower than the capacitor volt-age rating, such as a 240-volt capacitor used on a 208-volt system, use the following formula:
For the kVAC required to correct the power factor from a given value of COS φ1 to COS φ2, the formula is:
kVAC = KW (tan phase1 – tan phase2)
Capacitors cause a voltage rise. At light load periods the capacitive voltage rise can raise the voltage at the location of the capacitors to an unacceptable level. This voltage rise can be calculated approximately by the formula
MVAR is the capacitor rating and MVASC is the system short circuit capacity.
With the introduction of variable speed drives and other harmonic current generating loads, the capacitor imped-ance value determined must not be resonant with the inductive reactances of the system. This matter is discussed further under the heading “Harmonics and Non-Linear Loads.”

Product Description
Power Factor Correction Capacitors
Power factor correction capacitors and harmonic filters are an essential part of modern electric power systems. Power factor correction capacitors are the simplest and most economical means of increasing the transmission capacity of a power system, minimizing energy losses and correcting load power factor. In addition, power factor penalties can be reduced and power quality can be greatly enhanced.
There are two main reasons to correct poor power factor. The first is to reduce or eliminate a power factor penalty charged by your local utility. Another reason is that your existing transformer is, or shortly will be, at full capacity and installing power factor correction capacitors can be a very cost-effective solution to installing a brand new service. Depending on the amount of power factor correction (number of kvar that needs to be injected into the electrical system to improve the power factor) and the dynamic nature of the load, a fixed or switched capacitor bank may be the best solution. When capacity becomes a problem, the choice of a solution will be dependent upon the size of the increase needed. Like all power quality solutions, there are many factors that need to be considered when determin-ing which solution will be best to solve your power factor problem.
Harmonic Filtering
As the world becomes more depen-dent on electric and electronic equip-ment, the likelihood that the negative impact of harmonic distortion increases dramatically. The efficiency and productivity gains from these increasingly sophisticated pieces of equipment have a negative side effect…increased harmonic distortion in the power lines. The difficult thing about harmonic distortion is determin-ing the cause. Once this has been determined, the solution can be easy. Passive harmonic filtering equipment will mitigate specific harmonic issues, and correct poor power factor as well.

AUTOVAR Filter — Automatic Harmonic Filter
AUTOVAR Filter (300 – 600 kvar)
Automatically switched harmonic filter/power factor corrections systems.
■
Programmable to automatically add/subtract filter banks to maintain preset target power factor.
■
Filter steps tuned for maximum efficiency in reducing harmonic currents in three-phase environ-ments with heavy 6-pulse loads.
■
Efficient modular design for short lead times, ease of maintenance and ease of future expansion.
■
Heavy-duty, three-phase capacitor construction with reliable, threaded terminal connections.
■
Cool operating, 100% copper wound, thermal protected reactors are sized for worst-case, 6-pulse harmonic environment.
■
UL and CSA listed.
Applications
Service entrance power factor correction installations requiring precise maintenance of target power factor in three-phase, 6-pulse, high harmonic environments.
For dimensions refer to Page 37.2-6.
Features
Configuration
■
Operation:
AUTOVAR harmonic filters are designed to be sized the same as any power factor cor-rection unit. In most low voltage applications where harmonics are generated by 6-pulse devices, no harmonic audit is necessary to design the AUTOVAR filter because it is already designed for the worst-case environment at the kvar size specified.
■
Cabinet:
12 gauge steel with ANSI 61 gray, baked enamel. Lift bolts standard. NEMA 1.
■
Power line interconnect:
Rugged, copper bus bar connection with access provided for top or bottom entry. All internal power wiring con-nections from bus are laid out on a most direct basis with minimum bends for ease of troubleshooting.
■
Modular tray design:
Capacitor banks arranged in modular trays with capacitors, fuses, blown-fuse indicating lights, and contactors grouped in a logical easily under-stood layout. This permits easy access, quick identification of operating problems and ease of expandability.
■
Fusing:
UL recognized, 200,000 ampere interrupting capacity pro-vided on all three phases of each bank. Blade-type fuses mounted on insulator stand-offs.
■
Blown-fuse lights:
Blown-fuse indicating lights located on the door and at individual fuses to facilitate tracing of cleared fuses.
■
Push-to-test:
Allows testing of door fuse indicating lights.
■
AutoLocate:
When door is open and bus energized, fuse circuit auto-matically checks for cleared fuses.If a fuse has cleared, the light at that fuse comes on for easy troubleshooting.
■
Door interlock:
Door interlock automatically turns off control circuit when engaged. Power continues to be provided to the unit until disconnect is open.
■
Interwiring:
On-site interwiring of multiple cabinet design is made simple by prenumbered bundles and clear diagrams.
■
Exhaust fans:
Two fans per cabinet provide thermal protection for both capacitor cabinet and reactor cabinet. Dust filtering provided.
Controller
■
Digital display of power factor and number of energized banks.
■
Automatic setting of c/k value.
■
Visual display of harmonic overload.
■
Visual indication of insufficient kvar to reach target power factor.
■
Output relays disabled within 35 milliseconds of main power interruption.
■

■
Control wiring — standard NEC color-coded modular bundles with quick disconnect feature for ease of troubleshooting or ease of expandability.
Reactors
■
Tuning:
Reactors tuned to the 4.7th harmonic (nominal 5th). This provides maximum effectivenessin reducing harmonic currents in three-phase systems with harmon-ics caused by 6-pulse devices.
■

Active-Harmonic Filter-Harmonic Correction Unit — NEMA 1 Enclosure Specifications
Harmonic Correction Units — NEMA 1 Enclosure
Product Description
Harmonic Correction Units
Active Harmonic Filters provide active harmonic control. The Active Harmonic Correction Unit will monitor the distorted electrical signal, deter-mine the frequency and magnitude of the harmonic content, and then cancel those harmonics with the dynamic injection of opposing current. Active harmonic control provides the benefit of traditional passive filters with simpler engineering require-ments, easier and less expensive installation, comprehensive control, and assured compliance with the IEEE 519-1992 standard.

Metal-Enclosed — Medium Voltage
General Description
Sheet 1659
UNIVAR
UNIVAR Fixed Medium Voltage PFC Unit
Product Description
Capacitors for medium voltage, heavy-duty applications:
■
UNIVAR capacitors are designed for power factor correction in applica-tions where a fixed amount of capacitance (kvar) is required.
■
2400 V, 4160 V, 4800 V, 6600 V, 7200 V, 12,470 V or 13,800 V.
■
Fast economical payback.
■
Individual units or multiple assem-blies can be designed.
■
Indoor dustproof/outdoor water-proof enclosures (NEMA 12, NEMA 3R).
■
Floor mounting.
■
2- or 3-phase fused options for 2400 V – 4800 V. All units above 4800 V are supplied with fusing on all three phases (see
Note
).
■
NEMA 3R terminal box.
Note:
NEC Article 460-8 (b)(1)requires capacitors to have overcurrent protection in all ungrounded conductors (except if con-nected on the load side of a motor overload protection device). Three-phase capacitors fused only on two phases will not provide adequate protection if a line-to-ground fault should occur in the unfused phase.
Applications
■
Large motors.
■
Motor control centers.
■
Branch circuits.
■
Service entrances.
Utility Customers
Metal-enclosed power factor correc-tion systems are fully assembled, tested and ready for installation. Very little field assembly is required. Installation and maintenance costs for metal-enclosed systems are low compared to pole and rack mounted capacitor banks. Metal-enclosed sys-tems and harmonic filters are less vulnerable to wildlife and airborne contaminants that can cause tracking and faults. In addition, metal-enclosed systems significantly reduce the risks and the associated liability involving untrained personnel. All live parts are contained in a grounded, key inter-locked enclosure and no internal hard-ware is accessible. Metal-enclosed systems are aesthetically pleasing due to their low profile, and can be painted to match the surrounding architecture. These are just some of the reasons more and more utilities are utilizing metal-enclosed capacitor and harmonic filter systems.
Industrial Customers
Large industrial power users can utilize the benefits associated with medium voltage power factor correction and harmonic filtering. Medium voltage solutions usually support the scale and scope of larger services. Medium voltage applications can be found in the following types of industries as examples: automotives, pulp and paper, plastics, petrochemical, and heavy manufacturing. Individual fixed capacitors provide power factor correc-tion directly at the cause of the prob-lem, such as a large horsepower MV motor. Medium voltage systems allow large industrials to correct power fac-tor at or close to the point of common coupling (PCC), where the utility elec-trical system meets theirs. This allows correction for an entire facility, instead of having to correct at multiple loca-tions. The Cutler-Hammer NEMA
�
3R design also allows the system to be placed outdoors, saving valuable man-ufacturing floor space. The savings can be enormous, in materials, installation costs and floor space. In short, medium voltage solutions provide a cost-effective alternative to many local low voltage power factor correction units, while protecting the customer’s entire electrical distribution system.
Commercial Customers
Many commercial customers are purchasing power from their utility at higher voltages today (2.4 kV– 15 kV), and can also take advantage of medium voltage power factor correction systems. These solutions can meet the needs of large office complexes, hospi-tals and universities, among others. The benefits of safety (key interlocking, no exposed live parts, etc.), and aes-thetics (low profile, can be painted to match environment) both meet the needs of these applications where there are large numbers of untrained person-nel in proximity of electrical equipment.
Features
Enclosure
16-gauge steel finished with durable baked-on enamel. The wiring enclosure is gasketed to create a weatherproof, dustproof seal. Universal mounting flanges are provided for floor installa-tion.

Metal-Enclosed — Medium Voltage
General Description
Sheet 1665
AUTOVAR
Medium Voltage Metal-Enclosed PFC System
Product Description
The AUTOVAR medium voltage automatic power factor capacitor systems are designed for power factor correction in applications where plant power factor can be constant or changing, and an engineered solution is required. These systems can be a fixed amount of capacitance with a disconnect, a number of switched capacitance stages, or a combination of both. The AUTOVAR medium voltage capacitor system can switch stages of capacitance in and out auto-matically based on information col-lected by the power factor controller on the door-in-door control panel.
Applications
■
Large motors.
■
Motor control centers.
■
Branch circuits.
■
Service entrance.
Utility Customers
Metal-enclosed power factor correc-tion systems are fully assembled, tested and ready for installation. Very little field assembly is required. Installa-tion and maintenance costs for metal-enclosed systems are low compared to pole and rack mounted capacitor banks. Metal-enclosed systems and harmonic filters are less vulnerable to wildlife and airborne contaminants that can cause tracking and faults. In addition, metal-enclosed systems significantly reduce the risks and the associated liability involving untrained personnel. All live parts are contained in a grounded, key interlocked enclosure and no internal hardware is accessible. Metal-enclosed systems are aesthetically pleasing due to their low profile, and can be painted to match the surrounding architecture. These are just some of the reasons more and more utilities are utilizing metal-enclosed capacitor and harmonic filter systems.
Industrial Customers
Large industrial power users can utilize the benefits associated with medium voltage power factor correc-tion and harmonic filtering. Medium voltage solutions usually support the scale and scope of larger services. Medium voltage applications can be found in the following types of indus-tries as examples: automotives, pulp and paper, plastics, petrochemical, and heavy manufacturing. Individual fixed capacitors provide power factor correction directly at the cause of the problem, such as a large horsepower MV motor. Medium voltage systems allow large industrials to correct power factor at or close to the point of common coupling (PCC), where the utility electrical system meets theirs. This allows correction for an entire facility, instead of having to correct at multiple locations. The Cutler-Hammer NEMA 3R design also allows the system to be placed outdoors, saving valuable manufacturing floor space. The savings can be enormous, in materials, installation costs and floor space. In short, medium voltage solutions provide a cost-effective alternative to many local low voltage power factor correction units, while protecting the customer’s entire electrical distribution system.
Commercial Customers
Many commercial customers are purchasing power from their utility at higher voltages today (2.4 kV – 15 kV), and can also take advantage of medium voltage power factor correc-tion systems. These solutions can meet the needs of large office com-plexes, hospitals and universities, among others. The benefits of safety (key interlocking, no exposed live parts, etc.), and aesthetics (low profile, can be painted to match environment) both meet the needs of these applica-tions where there are large numbers of untrained personnel in proximity of electrical equipment.
Features, Benefits and Functions
Benefits
Ease of Installation
Eaton makes installation easy. All sys-tems are completely assembled in the factory, with all equipment pre-wired and pre-tested for easy on-site installa-tion. Only shipping splits must be con-nected in the field. Splice kits connect bus systems, and control wiring is easily connected at each enclosure. Current limiting fuses, contactor assemblies, and the incoming switch assembly can be removed from the enclosure if needed. Line terminals are completely accessible from the front of the system.
Personnel Safety
Positive mechanical isolating switch with visible disconnect completely grounds and isolates the unit from the line connectors. A screened barrier protects personnel from live parts. All medium voltage doors are mechani-cally interlocked with the disconnect switch. Key interlocks are provided standard on all enclosure doors, and can be coordinated with upstream disconnect devices. The low voltage control section has a separate door-in-door design, and is segregated from the medium voltage sections so that an operator can work in that section safely.
Ease of Maintenance
All components are front-accessible, facilitating routine inspection or parts replacement. A viewing window is standard on all compartment doors.

Capacitors
Low loss, double-bushing capacitors that meet or exceed IEC 871, IEEE Std. 18 and CSA standards are supplied. Capacitors are connected in an ungrounded wye as standard, but can be connected delta as well. The dielectric fluid is environmentally friendly, biodegradable, non-PCB. Capacitor units are equipped with internal discharge resistors which reduce the residual voltage to less than 50 volts within 5 minutes of de-energization.
Harmonic Filtering
Eaton’s Cutler-Hammer medium voltage harmonic filter systems are designed for industrial, utility and commercial power systems to improve power factor, reduce har-monic distortion, increase system capacity and reduce I2R losses. The reactors are typically tuned to the 4.7th harmonic, to mitigate the most damaging 5th level harmonic. This is the most common harmonic produced by six pulse variable speed drives. These filters are designed to the unique specifications of each electrical distribution system. Medium voltage capacitor banks can also be configured with de-tuned harmonic filters, typically set to the 4.2nd harmonic. This helps avoid harmonic resonance problems, provides harmonic filtering, and avoids the overloading that is possible with an improperly applied filter.
Harmonic Filter Capacitor Stage Enclosure
Key Interlock System
The key interlock system controls the sequential operation of the load break switch (or circuit breaker) and the ground switch to permit safe entry into the capacitor system. All capacitor stage enclosures are also interlocked with the ground switch. If applicable, the customer’s upstream disconnect device can be interlocked as well. See
Figure 37.6-1
for key interlock opera-tion on a typical single-line drawing.
Key Interlock System Ensures Safety in Main and Stage Doors

General Description
Sheet 1669
Solid-State Controller
Automatic metal-enclosed capacitors and harmonic filter systems come equipped with an automatic controller that switches each capacitor stage based upon power factor. The cus-tomer simply programs in the target PF to meet. The controller analyzes current PF, the size of each stage, and turns on and off stages to meet the customer’s programmed target. The controller has alarms such as power factor out of range, high harmonic voltage content and loss of power.
Up to 12 steps of capacitance can be designed into any system. Customers can note this feature when designing for future expansions.
Communications
Communications of power factor data via RS-232, RS-485 or Modbus

Fixed Capacitor Systems
For standard fixed capacitor applica-tions where the customer requires a disconnect, Eaton can provide a unit with a main load break switch, fuse, inrush reactor, and 3-phase fixed delta capacitor cell. This system can be pro-vided at the following ratings:
■
2.4 – 4.8 kV, up to 900 kvar, 94 H x 45 W x 49 D inches (2387.6 H x 1143.0 W x 1244.6 D mm), NEMA 3R enclosure.
■
5.5 – 14.4 kV, up to 2400 kvar, 94 H x 90 W x 49 D inches (2387.6 H x 2286.0 W x 1244.6 D mm), NEMA 3R enclosure (includes a ground switch).
See
Figure 37.6-3
and
Figure 37.6-5
for structure outlines. See
Figure 37.6-4
and
Figure 37.6-6
for one-line drawings.
Harmonic Filter Reactors
Iron core reactors provide the neces-sary reactance to tune the capacitor system to a desired frequency. Stan-dard tuning is the 4.7th harmonic. Other tuning frequencies, as well as multi-tuned systems, are also available.
Harmonic Filter
Lightning Arresters
Optional heavy-duty distribution class lightning arresters protect the capacitor system from lightning and switching transients.
IQ Digital Power Meter
A highly advanced digital power meter (IQ Analyzer or Power Xpert
�
series), suited to many power and control applications, can be supplied as an option. This solid-state meter can take the place of numerous meters and control circuits to meet your power and energy monitoring requirements. Communications options are also available.
IQ Analyzer 6600
Circuit BreakerThe VCP-TLC drawout type and VCP-TRLC fixed type medium voltage circuit breakers are available with short circuit breaking current ratings up to 25 kV and continuous current ratings up to 1200 amperes. The linear actuator mechanism provides for a high degree of reliability with low maintenance needs.
Predictive Diagnostics/Partial Discharge DetectionSensors can be mounted in medium voltage power factor correction sys-tems to detect partial discharges in an enclosure and/or adjoining enclosures. They can be connected to an Insul-Gard� monitor mounted in the field, or mounted in the MV PFC enclosure. The InsulGard monitor can ascertain the relative condition of insulation in the electrical distribution system, the deterioration of which is the leading cause of electrical failures. With the InsulGard, there is no need to take equipment out of service or send per-sonnel to conduct tests. It constantly monitors its sensors and alerts the operator of a potential problem.
Partial Discharge Sensor Connection Point
Enclosure OptionsNEMA 4X construction for highly caus-tic environments or areas requiring wash down.
Other plant colors available.
Alarm StrobeStrobe light can be provided for visual indication of faults and alarms.
Current TransformerAutomatic systems can be shipped with a customer-specified current transformer for mounting in the field.
