Production of a LV compensation
cubicle
In addition to the rules and standards
concerning production of electrical
switchboards the LV correction switchboards
require the consideration of specific
constraints.
The compensation modules
c
Mounted, pre-cabled and tested
in the factory.
c
The capacitors
(see page 36)
Their positioning must ensure proper ventilation.
Their sizing must take into account ambient
conditions (harmonics, temperature, etc.).
Adaptation in all cubicle types.
c
Perfect association of components.
The contactors
(see page 38)
They must be suited to capacitor control.
Some manufacturers (e.g. Telemecanique) have
designed and tested specific contactors for this
application.
Their control voltage must be monitored in order
to prevent rapid reclosing.
The detuned reactors (DR)
(see page 39)
They must be chosen according to harmonic
stresses and installed in order to avoid, as far as
possible, capacitor temperature rise.

Key points
Ventilation

It must be efficient in order to keep operating
temperature lower than maximum permissible
temperature of components
v
arlogic R6
The power factor controller

Its functions must be adapted to the capacitor bank
characteristics: number and power of steps,
sequence, etc.
The time delay must be adapted to capacitor
discharge time.

Low voltage network
Network characteristics, and in particular network
harmonic pollution, must absolutely be taken into
account when choosing capacitors and detuned
reactors (if any).
