Power Quality by Solution

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.
