Note that the following prerequisites must be met for the "circulating reactive
current minimization" parallel operation method:
▪ You have to use current transformers with the same rated values for all
transformers in parallel operation.
▪ If you wish to operate in parallel operation with existing devices, you have
to activate the Retrofit TAPCON® 2xx parameter.
For the circulating reactive current minimization parallel operation method
with CAN communication, you have to set the following parameters:
▪ Activate parallel operation
▪ Parallel operation method: Circulating reactive current
▪ CAN bus address
▪ Circulating reactive current sensitivity
▪ Circul. reactive current blocking limit
▪ Error if no communication present
▪ Behavior if no communication present
▪ Parallel operation error delay time
9.3.3.1.2 Circulating reactive current minimization without CAN bus
communication
With this method, you can operate several voltage regulators without a com-
munication connection (CAN bus) in parallel with circulating reactive current
minimization.

The circulating reactive current is calculated using the desired power factor
parameter, the desired load stress type parameter, and the measured trans-
former current. An extra control deviation proportional to circulating reactive
current is added to the independently regulating voltage regulators as a cor-
