Calculation of Delta and Star Circuits Bank Capacitors



How to Calculation of Delta and Star Circuit's Bank Capacitors. In a three-phase system, a series of capacitor connections can be in the form of delta links and star connections. If the reactive power of a three-phase capacitor is known, the magnitude of the capacitance of the capacitor can be calculated, both the delta and star circuit.


  • Delta Circuit



Delta circuit

In the delta circuit Ic = IL /; IL = x Ic & Vc = VL, then to calculate the capacitance of the capacitor can be done in a way, namely:

Bank Capacitor Formula for Star Circuit

The benefits and advantages of using capacitor banks are:


1) Maximizes installed power
2) Save on usage costs
3) Removes obstacles in the conductor cable
4) Stabilizing the mains voltage (frequency)
5) Extend the life of electronic equipment
6) Decreases amperage, reduces excessive heat in the tissue
7) Reducing the starting current
8) Does not harm Power Genaration System because it can reduce apparent wattage power
9) Free maintenance
10) Very easy to install and install after the meter (kWh meter)
