Eliminating reactive power and harmonics with capacitors and filters Poor power quality is becoming an increasing cause of concern for both the users and the suppliers of electrical power. Consequences of poor power quality include reduced efficiency in the generation, transport and use of electrical power and an increase in system breakdowns. System reliability decreases and operational costs increase. The introduction of renewable power sources into the grid adds further challenges with respect to load demand management and voltage stability. ABB is a pioneer in, and offers a complete portfolio of, products that address a wide variety of power quality problems in all voltage categories. read more
