First, remember this easy-to-remember mnemonic for on-site recall: 1. Ask about the symptoms; 2. Inspect the appearance; 3. Disconnect the fault in sections; 4. Measure parameters; 5. Test run to prevent recurrence. Step 1: Ask (Understand the Fault Symptoms) First, ask the operator to clarify the situation before starting any work: When did it break down? How did it break down? Were there any unu...

Is there a hidden trick in the electricity bill? The secret path to saving 30% on losses by improving the power factor from 0.7 to 0.95. I.The Impact, Benefits, and Improvement Principles of Power Factor: A building materials factory incurred an annual electricity cost overrun of 500,000 yuan due to a power factor of only 0.7—this is not an isolated case! During power supply, the user's power fact...

1.What is Harmonics? In power systems, the fundamental cause of harmonics is the presence of non-linear loads. When current flows through a load and does not maintain a linear relationship with the applied voltage, a non-sinusoidal current is formed, meaning harmonics are generated in the circuit. Harmonic frequencies are integer multiples of the fundamental frequency. As proven by the French math...

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...

A factory operates on a three-phase, four-wire power supply system. Recently, due to a break in the external neutral wire and the absence of protective circuits such as zero-sequence current protection in the distribution system, multiple PLCs and instruments were damaged, resulting in production and financial losses. Below, we discuss how to diagnose and prevent neutral wire breakage...

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...

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...
