7-4 AC/DC Reactor 
Installing an AC reactor in the input side of AC motor drive can increase line impedance, improve 
power factor, reduce input current, and reduce interference generated from motor drive. Also momentary 
voltage surges or abnormal current spikes are reduced. For example, when the mains power capacity is 
higher than 500 kVA, or a switching capacitor bank is used, momentary voltage and current spikes may 
damage the AC motor drive’s internal circuit. An AC reactor in the input side of the AC motor drive 
protects it by suppressing surges. 
 
Installation 
An AC input reactor is installed in series with the mains power to the three input phases R S T as 
shown below:
