Mobile capacitor bank
The mobile capacitor banks is a packaged factory assembled and tested reactive compensation system with modular fixed or switched capacitor steps, which automatically compensate an individual load or the network to maintain a preset level of power factor. The capacitor bank is mounted on a trailer and can be moved from one substation to another.
Capacitor Bank Design
The protection of shunt capacitor banks requires understanding the basics of capacitor bank design and capacitor unit connections. Shunt capacitors banks are arrangements of series/ paralleled connected units. Capacitor units connected in paralleled make up a group and series connected groups form a single-phase capacitor bank.

Figure 12 – Capacitor banks with separate control. Go back to Content Table ↑. 3.3 Capacitor banks with separate control. It may be necessary to have separate switching of a capacitor bank to avoid overvoltages, by self-excitation or when a motor starts, using a special device: Rheostat, Change of coupling, Reactors, Auto-transformer, etc.
Types of Capacitor Bank
A unit of a capacitor bank is normally called a capacitor unit. These units are typically manufactured as single-phase units and connected in star or delta configurations to form a complete three-phase capacitor bank. Although some rare manufacturers produce three-phase capacitor units, most available capacitor units are single-phase. Externally fused…
Power Capacitor Bank Switching Transients
Capacitor banks applied within distribution substations typically consists of one to four banks of switched capacitors as shown in Figure 1 (which shows a three step switched bank). The switched banks are designed to come on and off automatically based on power factor, vars, and/or voltage. Due to load variations, a number of switching
