Power Quality improvement may require conventional compensation, dynamic compensation, harmonic mitigation or a hybrid solution depending on the electrical behaviour of the installation.
APFC Panels
Automatic Power Factor Correction panels are widely used to improve Power Factor in Low Voltage installations.
They are suitable for facilities where reactive power demand is relatively stable and where harmonic levels are within acceptable limits.
APFC panels can help:
Improve Power Factor
Reduce penalties linked to poor Power Factor
Improve transformer utilisation
Reduce electrical losses
Support better electrical efficiency
TEAMS can support with selection, sizing, supply and implementation of APFC panels based on project requirement.
Static VAR Generators
Static VAR Generators provide fast, dynamic reactive power compensation. Unlike conventional capacitor switching systems, SVGs respond rapidly to changing load conditions.
SVGs are suitable for modern installations where the load profile is dynamic and precise compensation is required.
SVGs can help:
Improve Power Factor dynamically
Respond quickly to changing loads
Reduce over-compensation
Save space compared to conventional systems
Lower maintenance than APFC
Reduce life cycle cost
For buildings, data centres and industries with dynamic loads, SVGs can be a strong technical and commercial choice.
Active Harmonic Filters
Active Harmonic Filters are designed to reduce harmonic distortion caused by non-linear loads such as variable frequency drives, UPS systems, rectifiers, EV chargers, LED lighting and electronic equipment.
AHFs monitor the harmonic current and inject compensating current to reduce distortion in the network.
Active Harmonic Filters can help:
Reduce harmonic distortion
Protect transformers and cables from overheating
Improve electrical reliability
Reduce nuisance tripping
Support compliance with harmonic limits
Improve performance of sensitive equipment
TEAMS helps customers select the right AHF solution based on site measurement, design data or project specification.
Hybrid Power Quality Solutions
In many facilities, the best solution is not one product. A hybrid approach may combine APFC panels, SVGs and Active Harmonic Filters to address both reactive power and harmonics. Hybrid solutions are especially useful where customers need a balance of performance, cost, space and future scalability. We evaluate the electrical requirement and recommends a solution that is technically suitable and commercially sensible.
