Introduction:
For electricity consumer lagging reactive power generated
from inductive loads is one of the major causes of power Advantages of power factor corrections:
and financial losses i.e. poor power factor (non-unity).
Incorporating power factor correction devices in the network
helps in generating leading reactive power to compensate • Reduction of reactive power in system

3 Introduction
SIECAP™ LV Capacitors
Capacitor Self-healing properties
SIEMENS SIECAP™ range of capacitor can withstand high
Self-healing
inrush currents caused while individual switching operation
(>100IR) as well while connected in parallel, i.e. as banks
when the inrush current is increased to ≥150 · IR. The high
inrush is because of the charging current comes from the
power line as well as from other capacitors connected in
parallel in the bank.
SIEMENS capacitor range broadly classified in two variants:
1 Dielectric
2 Metalized electrodes
3 Material displacing shock wave
4 Air gap with metal vapor
5,6 Plasma zone
7 Boundary layer between gas phase dielectric and plasma
8 Breakdown channel
9 Gas phase dielectric
10 Zone of displaced metalization and dielectric (isolating region)

Fig 4

In case of electrical overload the dielectric in the breakdown

channel is broken down into highly compressed plasma
that explodes out of the breakdown channel and pushes
SIECAP™ ND SIECAP™ SHD the dielectric layers apart. The discharge continues within
[Normal Duty] [Super Heavy Duty] the spreading plasma via the metal layers so that the
metal surrounding the faulty area is completely burnt out.
SIECAP™ range of capacitor is based MPP technology
This produces perfect isolation of the faulty area within
[Metalized of Zinc Al alloy over Polypropelyne dielectric] of
microseconds. The self-healing process results in negligible
film making with an impregnation of semi-dry biodegradable

separate the wires and disconnect the capacitor safely from
the line. The disconnector is separated at its breakpoint (small

interrupted. Fig 5

Overview Tuning frequency of LC filtercan be calculated by below
formula:-

fs
ft = p

Where
ft = tuning frequency
fs = supply frequency
p = detuning factor in percentage

Impedance

In past few years the use of power electronics equipment’s

like drives, SMPS, UPS etc has increased tremendously.
These devices distort the pure sinusoidal waveform of power
supply. These distortions can be called as harmonics. When
a capacitor is used for power factor correction, it might
create a resonating circuit with the feeding transformer. The
resonance frequency is generally from 250Hz to 500Hz, that
Capacitive ft Inductive Frequency

means 5th to 7th harmonics. This resonance is undesired

condition and it might lead to
• Overloading of capacitors- reduce the life of capacitor This combination of detuned LC filter will act capacitive for
• Overloading of transformer, cables and other switchgear frequency below ft and inductive for frequency above ft. Thus

capacitive and improves the power factor. This LC detuned

filter is selected such that the tuning frequency is much less
• Increased power losses than the dominant harmonic frequency. Thus harmonics
• Nuisance tripping of protection equipment always seeshigher impedance and the condition of resonance
with feeding transformeris avoided.
This resonance can be avoided by putting a detuned reactor
in series with the capacitor. The reactor shall be such that For example if the dominant harmonics is 5th harmonic
the tuning frequency with capacitor shall be less than the and base frequency is 50Hz, a 7% detuned reactor shall be

3TS Capacitor duty contactors
Overview: The amplitude of these current peaks, also known as “inrush
current peaks”, depends on the following factors:
For more than 125 years, Siemens has been developing
and manufacturing industrial control products. We offer a • The network inductances.
wide product range which caters to fulfill the demand of • The transformer power and short-circuit voltage.
our esteemed customers with satisfactory performance • Type of power factor correction: fixed or automatic.
level and improved reliability. The new range of capacitor • Harmonics present in the system.
duty contactor has been launched to provide a reliable and
economical solution for capacitor switching applications. The in-rush current of such high magnitudes is undesirable
and it is likely to weld main contacts of any standard
Capacitor Duty Contactor contactor. Therefore, contactor for capacitor bank switching
must be designed to withstand:
• Permanent current that can reach 1.5 time the nominal
current of capacitor bank.
• Short but high peak current on pole closing.

Hence, capacitor duty switching device requires careful

selection. It is always recommended to use dedicated
capacitor duty switching contactor for switching capacitor
bank, which optimizes the switchgear cost & enhances the
equipment life.
Siemens 3TS capacitor duty contactor works on mechanical
delatching operating principle, which ensures reliable
switching of capacitors as per AC-6b utilization category.

Delatching operating principle:

The front-mounted block mechanism of the 3TS capacitor
duty contactors ensures:
Range: • early making of the auxiliary contacts “AC” with respect to
• 7kVAr - 50kVAr the main contacts “MC”
• automatic return to the open position of the auxiliary
Features: contacts after the main contacts are closed.
• Delatching operating principle
When the coil is energized, the early making auxiliary
• SIGUT Termination technique contacts connect the capacitor to the network via the set of
• Finger touch proof terminals $ 3 resistors. The damping resistors attenuate the first current
• Compact Dimensions peak and the second inrush current when the main contacts
begin to make. Once the main contacts are in the closed
• DIN / Screw mounting
position, the auxiliary contacts automatically break.
Benefits: When the coil is de-energized, the main contacts break
• Reliable switching of capacitor banks ensuring the breaking of the capacitive current. The contactor
• Ease of wiring (can obviate use of lugs) can then begin a new cycle.
• Operator Safety
• Space saving
• Flexible mounting

Standards:
• IEC 60947-4-1

Approbations:
• CE marking

Operating Principle:
In Low Voltage industrial installations, capacitors are mainly
used for reactive power correction (raising the power factor).
When these capacitors are energized, overcurrents of high
amplitude and high frequencies (3 to 15 kHz) occur during AC = auxiliary contacts MC = main contacts
the transient period (~1 ms).
