Abstract
In the development of society, the utilization of energy has become increasingly important, and electricity is an indispensable part of people's lives. Electric energy is also a good channel for all energy conversions, so the utilization rate of electric energy is particularly important.
In the power system, most loads are inductive loads, which can cause a large amount of reactive power due to their nature. Simply put, electric energy is wasted by the inductive loads in our lives.Box-type substationThere is an important device in it that can solve this problem, which is the capacitor compensation cabinet.
The capacitor compensation cabinet is not mysterious; it is a cabinet made up of a bunch of large capacitors. By using a reactive power automatic compensation controller to connect the capacitors into the circuit, the purpose of compensating for reactive power is achieved. Another very important data point that must be mentioned is the power factor.
The power factor is a data point that describes the utilization rate of the power supply in the circuit. In many box-type substations, there are dedicated instruments to display the size of this data, which is not mysterious. The power factor equals active power divided by apparent power; theoretically, it could equal 1, but in practical environments, synchronous capacitor compensation is difficult to achieve because the load of box-type substations changes at any time, and capacitors charge and discharge at any time, so generally maintaining around 0.95 is good.
Box-type substations are important devices that convert high-voltage electricity into municipal electricity while also having reactive compensation functions to improve energy efficiency.
