I. Core Analysis: The Feasibility of Frequent Transformer Tap Adjustments The essence of transformer tap adjustment lies in altering the turns ratio of the high-voltage winding to regulate the transformation ratio, thereby controlling the output voltage to accommodate fluctuations in grid load or deviations in system voltage. However, this regulation is not an operation that can be performed arbit...

1. Introduction Three-phase unbalance is a prevalent power quality issue in low-voltage distribution systems, mainly caused by dispersed single-phase loads, charging piles and residential electricity consumption. Two mainstream solutions are widely used in the industry: mechanical relay phase-switching balancers and IGBT-based active compensation devices (SVG/APF/Active Load Balancer). This articl...

Analysis of the reasons for the decrease in power factor on the power supply side after the AHF only performs harmonic filtering: I. Increased total apparent power naturally leads to a decrease in the overall power factor. Power factor λ = P/S. Active power P is determined only by the fundamental active power; harmonics do not contribute. After filtering, the fundamental reactive power remains unc...

When a sinusoidal voltage is applied to a non-linear circuit, both the resulting current and the voltage waveform become non-sinusoidal. Through Fourier series decomposition of these non-sinusoidal waves, the component with a frequency equal to the power system frequency is identified as the fundamental wave, while components with frequencies higher than the fundamental are termed harmonics. A vas...

The complete process of electricity generation and use can be clearly divided into four main stages: power generation → transmission → distribution → consumption. First, power plants convert various primary energy sources (such as coal, hydropower, wind power, nuclear power, and solar energy) into electrical energy. Then, the large amount of electricity generated by the power plants is efficiently...

Many charging station operators have a question: when charging piles are charging normally, the power factor is perfectly within the standard range, and there are no problems even without capacitor banks or SVG. However, when the station is newly built, there is little traffic, or there is no one charging at night, the power factor inexplicably exceeds the standard, resulting in power factor adjus...
