Capacitor Switch
A Bond Strands Private Limited (Switchgear Division and Cable Accessories Division) offers a Capacitor Switch. Depending on the load pattern, this capacitor switch will close or open automatically and connect or disconnect the capacitor bank to the lines. The capacitor switch provides not only reactive power compensation at overload current, but also prevents over-voltage problem at the receiving end during light load conditions by switching "on" and "off" the capacitor bank in the circuit respectively. Established in 1967, A Bond Strands manufactures switchgear, insulation and power cable products. The facility is complemented with high precision machines to fabricate and manufacture various products and with full-fledged laboratories to perform routine tests of products.The company also offers Isolators & Load Break Switches, etc.
Product & Technology News
- Automatic switching on of the capacitor bank whenever the load current exceeds a re-set value
- The setting of load current is adjustable up to 150 A, continuously; an on time delay of 5 minutes is provided each time the capacitor is required to be connected
- The capacitor bank is automatically disconnected if the line current is reduced below a specified level
- Automatic switching off the capacitor bank whenever the control voltage is beyond the minimum and maximum limits, i.e., 240 V ±15 % to 10%
- In the event of line current exceeding a certain specified limit, the CT mounted on Y phase operates through the control unit and closing command is given to the closing solenoid which closes the interrupter, thereby connecting the capacitor bank in the circuit and thus improving the power factor
- When line current is reduced, to a specified value control, unit gives a tripping command to the trip coil thereby disconnecting the capacitor bank
