Automatic power factor correction equipment
Automatic power factor correction equipment differs on the basis of one or more of the following criteria:
> Rated voltage and frequency
> Maximum voltage allowed on capacitors
We offer a wide range of capacitor banks for power factor correction, corresponding to the harmonic content of the network, therefore we always recommend that you carry out the necessary measurements in the electricity network, in order to correctly estimate the total harmonic distortion (THD).
