Pole-mounted capacitor banks QPole
Cost-effective way to apply capacitors to a distribution feeder system
Hitachi Energy's pole-mounted capacitor banks provide an economical way to apply capacitors to a distribution feeder system to provide voltage support, lower system losses, release system capacity and eliminate power factor penalties. They are factory pre-wired and assembled, ready for installation.
Features:
- In-line aluminum or galvanized steel rack
- Oil or vacuum switches
- Junction box
- Switching controller
- Wildlife guards
- Insulated conductor
- Control power transformer
- Distribution class arresters
- Fused cutout
- Current limiting reactors
Applications
The QPole can be used for voltage stability applications, reactive compensation or volt-var management.
QPole is available in two configurations: fixed or switched. Fixed banks are preferred for networks with less varying load profiles, while switched banks are more suited to networks with highly varying load profiles.
