ABSTRACT: This Practice provides requirements for the design and fabrication of medium-voltage metal-enclosed power factor correction capacitors.
This Practice describes minimum requirements for design, fabrication, inspection, testing, shipment, and documentation, for metal-enclosed power factor correction capacitors, from 2.4 kV to 35 kV, containing enclosure, lightning/surge arrestor, transient inrush reactor, vacuum circuit breaker, capacitor, capacitor protection, insulated buses, and control for indoor/outdoor installation in unclassified areas. This Practice covers fixed or manual or automatic switched capacitor banks.
