A Static VAR Generator (SVG) Hybrid Active Power Factor Correction system is a device connected in parallel with the load to be compensated. The device is a controlled current source which provides a current waveform in real time.
Application of Static Var Generator
- Installations with fast changing reactive power demand like electric arc furnaces and ball mills
- Highly dynamic loads where the power factor fluctuates rapidly or in big steps like cranes, sawmill machinery, welding machines, etc.
- Correction of leading power factor like in data centers, enabling back-up generators to more easily synchronise with the network
- UPS systems.
- Solar and wind turbine generators.
- Railway electrification systems: Trains & trams
- Loads with low power factor: Motors, cables, lightly loaded transformers, lighting, etc.
