2b) Internal Structure of a Can
The internal structure of a can must be known or must be determined. This information can be requested
from the manufacturer of the capacitor bank.
This example assumes the following internal structure of the can:
- 14 parallel capacitances
- Internal fuses (one internal fuse per capacitance)
- 7 capacitance levels in series

Capacitance per can: C
K
= 19.67 μF
2d) Current per Phase
The unbalanced current is derived under the assumption of a certain phase current.
