The benefits of power factor correction
Is your Power Factor too low?
Are you at the limit of your KVA?
Is your electricity company adding a penalty to your bill for poor power factor correction?
What is Power Factor Correction?
PFC techniques aim to bring the power factor closer to unity by reducing the effects of reactive power. In the great majority of cases, poor power factor is due to inductive loads which can be compensated by adding electrical devices called capacitors into the circuit.
Reactive power charges can be eliminated to provide instant savings.
What are the benefits and how can I reduce my electricity bill?
- By reducing losses and inefficiencies, improving your power factor means you need to draw less from the network, saving you money on your electricity bill.
- Power factor correction (PFC) can prolong the life of electrical equipment.
- It can help avoid voltage drops over long cables and reduce efficiency losses in your supply transformers.
- PFC will increase the effective capacity of your local electricity network – potentially deferring future investment in electrical infrastructure and allowing you to connect more machinery to the same utility connection
