Capacitor Bank Switching
Powersys performed a capacitor bank switching study for a utility located in North America. The scope of work concerned a Medium Voltage/High Voltage 100MVA substation located at the end of a relatively long radial transmission line. A load increase is forecasted for the next years and it is planned to replace the actual capacitor bank by a 50MVAR unit to provide the additional power without a severe voltage dip.
