CAPACITOR PROTECTION
Overvoltage Protection
Unbalance Protection
Capacitors:
1. Shall be capable of continuous operation up to 110% of rated terminal
r.m.s. voltage, including harmonics.
3. Shall give no less than 100% and not more than 115% of rated active
power at rated sinusoidal voltage and frequency.
• DELTA CONNECTION
The first line of protection for a capacitor bank is the individual capacitor fuse. The
current through the fuse when a unit becomes shorted should not be less than ten
times the normal capacitor unit current through the fuse.
